The Spotlight on The Hotel @ Fifth Avenue

Classic Comfort Steps from NYC's Iconic Stages

The Hotel @ Fifth Avenue offers a timeless, comfortable stay right in the heart of Manhattan. Just a 4-minute walk from the Empire State Building and close to subway lines, this classically styled hotel puts you within easy reach of NYC’s biggest music venues and nightlife. With cozy, well-equipped rooms and a location perfect for both sightseeing and late-night outings, it's a solid choice for travelers wanting location and simplicity.

Why Concert-goers love it

It’s hard to beat the hotel’s central Midtown location. Whether you're headed to a major arena or a hidden indie club, you’re just a few subway stops or a short walk away. With 24/7 subway access nearby, getting back after a show is hassle-free. Rooms offer a quiet place to crash, and the 15:00 check-in and 11:00 check-out times strike a good balance for those on a concert schedule.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for a central base to explore the city and its music scene
- Solo travelers catching a bucket-list show in NYC
- Couples on a weekend music getaway
- Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space without being too far from the action
- Budget-conscious music fans who want location without the luxury price tags

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t offer on-site dining, there are dozens of eateries within walking distance—perfect for a midnight bite after the encore. From 24-hour diners to authentic Korean BBQ joints just around the corner, tasty options abound. Coffee makers in every room help with those late-morning starts, and nearby cafes offer breakfasts that won’t judge your sleep-in.

Nightlife Options

The hotel may be quiet, but you're steps away from Manhattan’s electric nightlife. Whether you're into rooftop lounges, dive bars, or live jazz, there’s something nearby. Koreatown is right outside the door, offering karaoke bars and Korean pubs that stay open late. Looking for something more chill? Several cozy cocktail bars are just a block or two away.

What People Say

Guests praise the unbeatable location, noting how easy it is to walk or hop on the subway to venues and attractions. The rooms are described as clean, cozy, and quiet despite the central location. Travelers also appreciate the affordable rates for Midtown, and the helpful front desk staff who are quick with local tips.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel’s classic decor and older furnishings might not suit those seeking modern luxury, and some guests found the elevators a bit slow during peak times. No on-site restaurant means you’ll want to plan meals out—but in NYC, that’s usually a plus.

The Bottom Line

The Hotel @ Fifth Avenue is a no-fuss, well-located home base for concert-goers who want to be close to the music without breaking the bank.

Rod, Albuquerque, visiting Madison Square Garden

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was helpful and courteous. The location was just right. We found a gem of a property in Manhattan. We are so looking forward to our next trip to NY.

Disliked: Was not made aware that the breakfast room was closed when booking the reservation.

Abby, Dayton, visiting Irving Plaza

The location was perfect, right in the middle of everything! The beds were memory foam and so comfortable! Our room seemed newly remodeled. The room was a bit small but we didn't care - just needed it to sleep and shower! The staff was friendly and helpful. The valet guy could have been a little more friendly but our car got to the parking garage and that's all we needed! The parking garage is right across the street so that was very convenient. We had a great stay!

Liked: Location; very clean; AWESOME beds.

Great location, but cleanliness and...

Liked: The location was absolutely perfect — right in the heart of the city, with so many attractions, restaurants, and shops within walking distance. Public transportation stations were just a short walk away, which made it incredibly easy to get around and explore the city without any hassle.The staff were also fantastic — always friendly, welcoming, and ready to help with anything I needed. Their warm attitude really added to the overall experience
Disliked: I was very disappointed with certain aspects of my stay at this hotel. For two days in a row, the elevators were out of service, and we had to climb 12 floors by the stairs — which was extremely inconvenient and exhausting.While cleaning was done daily, it was not up to standard. Some days we had to request new sheets because the ones provided had stains on them, which is unacceptable for any hotel.The worst part was one night when we discovered a cockroach in the bathroom. This left a very poor impression and made me question the overall cleanliness and maintenance of the property.Unfortunately, despite the location and staff, these issues made my stay far less enjoyable than it should have been.
