Standard Room

The Standard Room is 226 sq. ft. with one bedroom and a private bathroom. It has one king bed and sleeps 2 guests, which makes it a natural fit for a couple or a solo traveler who wants a comfortable base in Manhattan.

The room is soundproofed to help keep the city buzz outside. It also has blackout drapes, climate-controlled air conditioning and heating, a ceiling fan and hypo-allergenic bedding, so you can set the room up for rest after a long day of sightseeing.

It is a private bathroom with a rainfall showerhead, free toiletries, a hair dryer and fresh towels. Bathrobes and slippers are provided too, which is a nice touch for a room this size.

You get a 55-inch smart TV with cable channels and streaming services including Netflix and Hulu, plus closed captioning. There is also a desk and laptop workspace, a laptop-compatible safe, free local calls, Wi-Fi and mobile key entry. A coffee and tea maker is in the room, and room service runs during limited hours.

A mandatory resort fee of $49.95 plus tax per night applies, though it may be waived on select corporate, group or promotional rates. It is charged separately from the room rate. It includes priority pool access, two bottled waters daily, Wi-Fi, 24-hour access to the FINS UP! Fitness Center, in-room coffee, luggage storage and streaming capabilities.

Yes. Guests can use the 6th-floor rooftop pool, billed as Times Square's only rooftop pool. It is heated and open year-round, with a lifeguard on duty daily. Hours are roughly 8 AM–8 PM in warm months and 10 AM–4:30 PM in colder months. LandShark Bar & Grill is beside the pool, and you can order food and drinks from your lounge chair.

The resort is family-friendly and welcomes children of all ages. A free crib is available, and up to 3 children aged 12 and younger stay free in a parent's room using existing bedding. The Standard Room is set up for 2 guests on one king bed, so larger families may be more comfortable in a room made for more people.

The location is very walkable. The Times Square-42nd Street subway station is just across the street, and Times Square itself is about 1,312 feet away. Bryant Park is a 6-minute walk, Grand Central is about 12 minutes on foot, and Rockefeller Center is about 15. The resort has no free airport shuttle, so guests use taxi, rideshare or public transit.

Check-in begins after 3:00 PM and check-out is by noon. Early check-in and late check-out are available for a fee, subject to availability. Guests must be at least 18 to check in, with photo ID and a card or cash deposit for incidentals. Pets are welcome (one dog or cat up to about 25 lbs, $100 fee), but they are not permitted at the rooftop pool.
