Luxury 5-star hotel with a terrace, spa, and family-friendly dining

Warren Street Hotel is a five-star New York address that welcomes families and pets alike. Rooms are air-conditioned and come with bathrobes, minibars and TVs, and the 24-hour front desk and concierge help when plans change late in the day. The terrace, restaurant and bar mean a meal or a drink does not always require going out, and the spa and wellness focus gives parents a quieter moment. A 9.6 score across 73 reviews is one of the highest we list in the city.

A private theater with film screenings every Sunday is the surprise for families at the Crosby Street Hotel, a five-star design hotel on a cobbled SoHo street. Rooms are bright, with high ceilings and full-length windows. The inner courtyard gives children a calm outdoor space in the middle of Manhattan, and the drawing room with its fireplace suits a quiet hour. The terrace restaurant handles meals, there is a 24-hour gym, and pets are welcome.

Broadway Plaza Hotel sits in Manhattan's NoMad neighborhood, close to the Flatiron Building and Madison Square Park, where children can run around between museum visits and walks. Modern art reproductions hang throughout the property, a small talking point for curious kids.

Prime city center location with comfortable rooms and a fitness room

Why guests love it

For a family visit to Midtown, I would pick the Hilton Club The Central at 5th for its walkable position: St. Patrick's Cathedral and Rockefeller Center are a short walk away, and Times Square is close enough for an evening stroll. The facilities stay simple, with air-conditioned rooms, free WiFi, a fitness room and a 24-hour front desk, but no pool or spa is listed. Guests rate it 9.3 out of 10 across 1,300 reviews.

Historic comfort with a Spanish restaurant and wellness facilities

Why guests love it

The Hotel Chelsea welcomes families, and its location helps: the Flatiron Building, Madison Square Park and the High Line are all reachable on foot, and several subway lines run along 23rd Street. The on-site Spanish restaurant is convenient after a long day, and rooms have minibars for drinks and snacks. The sauna and fitness center are better suited to parents than to young children, so plan pool time elsewhere if your kids want to swim.

Individually designed rooms, private terraces, and a prime Midtown location

Why guests love it

Families are welcome at The Whitby, and the upper Midtown location keeps Central Park, Fifth Avenue and several museums within walking distance for children. The drawing room and Orangery offer quiet spaces away from the street, and the restaurant on site saves a search for dinner after a long day. Pets are accepted. Rooms are individually designed, so ask about layout and bedding when booking, and request a terrace room for extra outdoor space.

Luxury in the Financial District with spa, dining, and free bikes

Why guests love it

Families who want a calm luxury base in Lower Manhattan will find interconnected and family rooms here, which is rarer than it should be in the Financial District. Soundproofed rooms help light sleepers, and the free bicycles are an easy way to ride toward the waterfront and Battery Park with older children. Parents get a spa and a terrace bar for the evening. Pets are allowed. With 565 guests scoring it 9.2, it sits among the city's best-rated five-star hotels.

Modern comfort in the Financial District with fitness and a terrace

Why guests love it

The 9/11 Memorial and One World Trade Center are a short walk from the Artezen Hotel, so a family can cover lower Manhattan on foot. I would choose it for older children rather than toddlers, as the listing mentions no pool or family rooms. The terrace gives a quiet spot above the Wall Street streets, and rooms have air conditioning and flat-screen TVs. There is a fitness center and free WiFi. A score of 9.2 across 1,441 reviews is excellent.

Apartment-style living in a historic landmark with full kitchens

Why guests love it

Mint House 70 Pine by Kasa suits families who want more room than a standard Manhattan hotel offers. Each residence is an apartment with a fully equipped kitchen and a private bathroom, so meals for children can follow home routines. The building is a historic landmark, the front desk is staffed 24 hours, and families and pets are both welcome. I would choose it for a stay of several nights, when a kitchen saves the most effort.

East Side comfort with spacious rooms and wellness facilities

Why guests love it

One-bedroom suites with kitchenettes are what I would book at the San Carlos for a family in Manhattan: a separate room for parents and somewhere to prepare breakfast or a light dinner. St. Patrick's Cathedral and United Nations Plaza are a short walk away on the East Side, and the 24-hour fitness centre suits early risers. Spice Symphony is on site for an easy evening meal. A score of 9.1 across 4,335 reviews is very strong.

Modern comfort steps from Times Square with a family-friendly vibe

Why guests love it

LUMA Hotel is a sensible family base for a first trip to New York. Times Square is about 300 metres away, so the lights, the Broadway shows and the subway lines are all close, and children can walk back to the room when they tire. The hotel is family-friendly, the 24-hour front desk helps with late arrivals, and the restaurant and bar save hunting for dinner. Rooms are air-conditioned with large TVs, useful for a quiet evening in.

Luxury boutique hotel with park views and a historic setting

Why guests love it

The Bryant Park Hotel sits in Midtown Manhattan directly opposite Bryant Park, which gives families a green space across the street for a break between museums and shows. The rooms and suites were recently refreshed with a residential feel, and many look over the park or the city skyline. The hotel describes itself as family-friendly and has spa and wellness facilities. I would ask for a park-view room, the detail that sets this address apart.

Boutique NoMad hotel with a rooftop garden and complimentary refreshments

Why guests love it

Hotel Giraffe is a boutique hotel in NoMad, and it suits families who like a smaller, calmer base in Manhattan. Mornings start with complimentary coffee, tea and fresh fruit, a handy snack before heading out. The rooftop garden is a quiet place to rest above the street, and Bread & Tulips downstairs saves a search for dinner. Union Square Park, with room for children to run, and Chelsea are both within a 10-minute walk.

Pet-friendly downtown hotel near Grand Central with city views

Why guests love it

Bryant Park and the Empire State Building are a short walk from the Pestana Park Avenue, and Grand Central puts the rest of the city within reach, so I would book it for a family covering Midtown on foot. Rooms are soundproofed, which helps children sleep in a loud district, and have a tea and coffee maker. Some rooms have a balcony with city views, worth requesting. There is a terrace and a lounge, and pets are accepted. A score of 9.0 across 869 reviews is excellent.

976 reviews

Boutique stay in the Lower East Side with city views and spa facilities

Why guests love it

A deep soaking tub in every marble mosaic bathroom is the detail I would point out to families at The Ludlow Hotel: bath time for small children becomes easy after a long day in Manhattan. Rooms have hardwood floors, handmade silk rugs, Moroccan lamps and a minibar stocked with local products. The trellis-covered garden is a quiet spot in the Lower East Side, the front desk is staffed around the clock, and pets are welcome. Adults can use the spa and wellness facilities. A 9 from 976 reviews is excellent.

Modern comfort in the Financial District with dining and spa facilities

Why guests love it

The National September 11 Memorial & Museum and One World Trade Center are a short walk from Hotel Indigo, which I would use as a base for a family visiting lower Manhattan with older children. Rooms have walk-in showers, parquet floors and a work desk, and the restaurant serves Dutch and American dishes at lunch and dinner, so there is no need to search for a table. Pets are accepted. A score of 9.0 across 1,978 reviews is excellent.

Luxury Midtown hotel with park views and a spa, steps from Bryant Park

Why guests love it

Bryant Park is right outside, with its carousel, lawns and winter ice rink, which makes easy breaks for children between sightseeing stops. Soundproofed rooms help light sleepers rest in busy Midtown, and some rooms look over the park through floor-to-ceiling windows. The New York Public Library, Grand Central and Times Square are all within a short walk. The hotel is family-friendly and pet-friendly, and the spa area is a treat for parents.

A renovated boutique hotel on East 41st Street

Why guests love it

Spacious rooms are the main advantage for families in Midtown, where hotel rooms are often small. Grand Central Terminal, Bryant Park and the New York Public Library are within a few minutes on foot, and the Theater District is about fifteen minutes away, which keeps walks manageable for children. The on-site Benjamin Steakhouse is better suited to a quiet dinner with older kids. Check bedding options when booking if you need extra beds.

Luxury at Columbus Circle with Central Park views and a first-rate spa

Why guests love it

I would consider this hotel for a New York stay at Columbus Circle with city or Central Park views. It sits where Columbus Circle meets Broadway, and guests rate it 8.9 across 800 reviews, a score I trust. Rooms are spacious with kitchenette facilities, two restaurants and a spa are on site, and pets are welcome. Families are accepted, though the setting is more upscale than child-focused.

3,171 reviews

Spacious aparthotel rooms with kitchenettes, a fitness center, and pet-friendly amenities

Why guests love it

Every aparthotel unit at Placemakr Wall Street has a kitchenette and a dining area, which is why I like it for families in Lower Manhattan: breakfast and simple dinners can happen at home. Rooms are air-conditioned with private bathrooms and city views. A games room and a lounge give children somewhere to go on a rainy afternoon, the sun terrace adds fresh air, and pets are welcome. With 8.8 from 3,171 reviews, the score is solid and well established.

2,193 reviews

Times Square luxury with a spacious rooftop terrace and city views

Why guests love it

The location does most of the work for families: Times Square, the Broadway theaters and several subway lines are steps from the door, which keeps walks short for children. Rooms include a mini-fridge, handy for snacks and drinks, and many face the city. The hotel welcomes families and pets. Expect crowds and noise at street level late into the evening, and ask for a higher floor if young children go to bed early.

5,442 reviews

Spacious suites with kitchens, steps from Times Square, with a pool and spa

Why guests love it

Suites come with a kitchen or kitchenette, which makes simple family meals possible in the middle of Manhattan, and a breakfast buffet is served each morning. Times Square is a short walk away. The suites are spacious, and the bar has a pool table for older teens and adults. Note that the hotel lists no swimming pool. Pets are welcome, and with 5,442 reviews averaging 8.3 the score is well established.
