The Spotlight on Riu Plaza New York Times Square

Stay in the Heart of NYC's Music Scene

Modern and stylish, Riu Plaza New York Times Square puts you right in the middle of Midtown Manhattan’s electric energy. Just steps from Times Square and Broadway theaters, this upscale hotel offers sleek comfort with a cosmopolitan vibe. With a full-service restaurant, outdoor terrace, and gym, it's a solid base for exploring the city by day—and diving into its music scene by night.

Why Concert-goers love it

If you're catching a show in the Theater District or a nearby venue, you’ll love that you can walk to many performances in minutes. The hotel is just a few blocks from Times Square and surrounded by iconic theaters. After the encore, head back knowing your room is close—and quiet enough for a good night’s rest. The 24-hour front desk and luggage storage until 9 p.m. are perfect for guests arriving early or leaving late. Plus, easy access to subway lines and taxis makes late-night travel a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends on a music-fueled city break
Solo travelers checking off a dream concert
Couples making a weekend of Broadway and beats
Fans looking to unwind in a quieter, upscale space post-show
Budget-conscious travelers who appreciate value and location

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Theater Buffet serves a hearty breakfast—great after a night out. For grab-and-go bites, Capital Grab & Go offers coffee and quick snacks. While there’s no room service, Midtown’s endless food options are all around you, with restaurant row just steps away for post-show bites.

Nightlife Options

You're in one of the best nightlife areas in the world. Head out to nearby Broadway lounges, rooftop bars, or jazz clubs. While the hotel itself doesn’t offer live music, its location makes it easy to pop into a nearby bar or club before or after your show.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, modern rooms, central location, and generous breakfast buffet. The hotel’s proximity to Times Square and Broadway is frequently praised, making it ideal for theatergoers and concert fans alike. Reviewers also appreciate the friendly staff and smooth check-in process.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention the daily facilities fee as an unexpected extra, so be sure to factor that into your budget. Noise from the street can be a factor in some rooms—worth asking for a higher floor if you're a light sleeper.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers wanting to be steps from the action with modern comfort and NYC energy, Riu Plaza New York Times Square hits all the right notes.

Hands down the best choice...

Liked: The hotel was excellent. The location was perfect to easily walk to a lot of the major attractions. The room was just right for our stay. The breakfast was one of the best we have had for any of our other stays. The food was delicious and plentiful.
Disliked: The only thing I did not like was the frosted glass door for the bathroom and a frosted glass wall in the shower facing the room where a detailed outline of the person taking a shower can be seen. It would definitely not be appropriate for children.

Great Location and Delicious Breakfast

Liked: Hotel Riu Plaza New York Times Square is a great place to stay in the heart of Manhattan. The room was very clean, and the entire property felt well-maintained and tidy. The location is definitely a strong point - close to many attractions and Times Square itself, although it’s a few blocks’ walk to the nearest subway station.Breakfast was really good, with plenty of variety, though it can get quite crowded during peak hours. In the mornings, there can also be a bit of a wait for the elevators, but it’s nothing too serious. Overall, a very enjoyable stay and I would definitely recommend this hotel!
