The Spotlight on Holiday Inn New York City - Times Square By IHG

Steps from the Stage in the Heart of Midtown


Modern, comfortable, and effortlessly convenient, the Holiday Inn New York City - Times Square puts you right in the thick of the Midtown Manhattan buzz. Just a short stroll from iconic entertainment hubs like Times Square, the Theater District, and Madison Square Garden, this hotel is a go-to for music lovers craving easy access to the city’s legendary live shows.

Rooms are cozy and practical, with free WiFi, flat-screen TVs, and private bathrooms stocked with complimentary toiletries. Whether you're here for one night or a long weekend, it’s a solid home base with everything you need.

Why Concert-goers love it

Its unbeatable location—just blocks from major venues—means you can skip the subway and walk to your show. Post-gig, you'll appreciate the quiet, comfortable rooms that offer a peaceful contrast to the city's energy. With a flexible check-in at 3:00 PM and a respectable 11:00 AM check-out, it suits both early birds and late risers.

Late-night Ubers are easy to grab from this central spot, and the area stays lively (and well-lit) into the early hours, so you'll never feel isolated heading back from a show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to catch a show and explore NYC nightlife
  • Solo travelers ticking off bucket-list concerts at nearby venues
  • Couples planning a romantic music-filled weekend
  • Fans who want a quieter, clean retreat post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers wanting value in a prime location

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, you're surrounded by walkable eateries ranging from classic diners to hip late-night joints. Grab a bite before or after your concert with ease. Breakfast options nearby are plentiful and forgiving for late risers.

Room service is limited, but you won't need it with the sheer number of quick bites around the corner.

Nightlife Options

From rooftop bars to underground jazz clubs, this neighborhood has it all. You're minutes from NYC’s most famous lounges, with plenty of chill hotel bars and live music venues in the vicinity. Catch a second show or wind down with a craft cocktail.

What People Say

Guests rave about the central location, friendly staff, and the fact that you can walk to just about everything. Many note the rooms are clean and efficient, perfect for concert-goers who just need a solid night's sleep after the show.

Areas for Improvement

The rooms aren’t huge—this is NYC, after all—so if you're traveling with a lot of gear or luggage, space might feel tight. Some guests mention the elevators can be a bit slow during peak times, especially post-show.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a concert in Midtown, the Holiday Inn New York City - Times Square is a smart, central, and comfortable choice that keeps you close to the music and the magic.

Fair - 2.5 out of 5

Passable

Liked: It was well located if you want to be in the eye of the storm. Very close to time square, close to all attractions. The staff was 10/10, very welcoming.
Disliked: The wifi stopped working after the first day and the elevator was very slow. We were lucky that we stayed on the 3rd floor, so we just used the stairs, but I can’t imagine staying way up and waiting for that long to go down.

Overall good, with the proviso...

Liked: Convenient & comfortable if not small rooms.
Disliked: Only 2 lifts in 35 story building (not enough).Also, disappointing that patrons, need to get passed various obviously drug affected people, hanging around the front Entrance, not good. This issue needs attention urgently.

Could be better or worse

Liked: Staff accommodating. Room fine. Location convenient.
Disliked: The air conditioner in the first room wasn’t right. In the second room, it also was not very good as it was only blowing out from half the unit. The breakfast was overpriced, $40 through Booking, and they ran out of oatmeal.

Good

Disliked: I would feel much more comfortable if the entrance to the hotel were better secured. There were some individuals around the entrance who made the area feel unsafe. I recommend considering dedicated security personnel or taking measures to prevent unauthorized loitering near the entrance.
