Civilian
The buzzing neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen, close to Times Square and just far enough from the twinkling lights, is now home to CIVILIAN. This brand new hotel immerses you in the atmosphere of theaters with special lighting, stage curtains and raw industrial materials that refer to the backstage. The rooms are also bathed in the theater theme. As its name suggests, the Cozy Queen or Twin is small in size and comfortable (cosy) at the same time. The Spacious King or Double are, as you will have understood, more spacious. CIVLIAN is distinguished above all by the experience it reserves for its guests. You only pay for what you consider important. The base with a bed for the night, no frills. During your entire stay, no one will do the cleaning but if necessary, an application allows you to order shampoo or clean towels. If you prefer to find a shiny bathroom and a made bed every day, add housekeeping. Complete your stay with daily breakfast, early check-in or late check-out. WiFi is included, but you have to pay extra for super-fast WiFi. You can even get a day pass to the TMPL around the corner for next to nothing, a wellness center with a 25m saltwater pool, sauna and fitness room. A mixture of art, music and theatre, CIVILIAN blends harmoniously with the big names in Manhattan's creative and theatrical scene. In 2022, the following will gradually open: a restaurant, a secret garden accessible by a retracted entrance and a luxurious lounge where you can have breakfast, work or relax, and a rooftop lounge with a beautiful view.
Kixby
This new luxury hotel opened its doors in 2019 within the walls of the former Metro hotel. It underwent a total makeover, but the excellent service that had already been remembered by countless Connections customers was retained. It is located in Herald Square, close to Macy's, the Empire State Building and Times Square. You stay in the ready-to-wear district, ideal for fashion lovers. The refurbished Lux rooms are modernly furnished in soft colors with wooden floors and a spacious walk-in rain shower. Start your evening with a drink at the Lobby Bar, enjoy real NY burgers or chicken wings at the Black Tap, sip a cocktail with a great view of the Empire State Building during the summer months at The Lookop rooftop bar. Enjoy the comfort of this hotel which is a safe bet.
Belvedere
Belvedere is a wonderful family hotel with a prime location on West 48th Street, in the heart of the theater district and within walking distance of Times Square. Your best choice for a first-time visit to New York. Connections customers have felt at home here. No wonder they are many to return. TThe spacious and elegant rooms in neutral tones offer impeccable comfort. Each room is equipped with a kitchenette with fridge and microwave. Our tip: choose a luxurious executive room with individual airco and deluxe skincare products. A Superior room has been recently refurbished in light colours. In the evening you can visit the authentic Brazilian steakhouse Churrascaria Plataforma. In general there is a warm atmosphere. It is certain your stay will not lack flavour!

This Upper West Side hotel is located right next to the Beacon Theater of the same name, which hosts major stars. It is a perfect base for Midtown Manhattan and Central Park.

Washing machines and dryers are also available (paying, with coins). Beacon Bar is a cozy place for a drink or a small bite.
Arlo Midtown
Coming home to Midtown? It is possible at Arlo Midtown Times Square. This hotel, perfectly located between Times Square and the trendy and booming district of Hudson Yard, immediately seduces. The 489 rooms are modern and elegantly decorated. Just like in the Arlo SoHo and NoMad hotels, they are functional and equipped with all the gadgets for an urban explorer and they are also more spacious than the micro rooms of these sister hotels. With “Nearly Ninth”, a great catering concept has been implemented, which can be found in different places in the hotel. A breakfast at the Coffee Bar in the morning, snacks or a drink at the Bar + Lounge, a craving for Italian cuisine at the restaurant or a fantastic cocktail at the rooftop bar on the 26th floor with a breathtaking view of Hudson Yards, everything is possible here. From spring through fall, you can use an Arlo bike for free on a first-come, first-served basis. Day or night, the place is wonderfully quiet, while in the evening there is a vibrant vibe.

Pod 51
Between Upper East Side and Murray Hill, you'll find the first of the Pod's, a new generation of budget hotels. You enter through a trendy lobby.

On the roof terrace, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the surroundings while enjoying your own picnic! At the Pod Café and Garden, you can enjoy your breakfast, snacks, a glass of wine or a beer... The terrace remains open as long as the weather permits.

Pod Times Square
The Pod Times Square is a micro-hotel located on Broadway not far from Times Square. However, in your room with soundproof windows and blackout curtains, you quickly forget that you are only a few steps from the entertainment. Like peas in a pod, the space of the 665 rooms is optimized. You stay in an immaculate room with a queen-size bed (13 m2) or with bunk beds (11 m2), functionally furnished and with enough USB ports to charge all your gadgets. You can even sing under your rain shower in your glass-walled bathroom. Wi-Fi is free in your room and in the lobby. You won't find unnecessary expensive decoration or gadgets, but a very competitive price. Because in 'The City' there are so many other cool ways to spend your money! When you walk through the lobby, you find The Polynesian, a famous cocktail bar that makes you feel like you are on an exotic island. Palm trees, wicker chairs and blue velvet sofas make you forget the hustle and bustle of New York while sipping an exotic cocktail.
Arlo NoMad
The hip location gives the new Nomad Arlo brand a different vibe than its sister hotel Arlo SoHo. The concept remains the same: functional micro rooms equipped with an integrated bathroom, a rain shower behind frosted glass and practical storage systems such as bed drawers, fittings for coat racks. The windows are floor to ceiling wow...we hope you don't get dizzy. The Bodega Shop in the lobby serves 24/7 grab-n-go coffee and snacks. At Lamalo it is rather Middle Eastern inspired, also open for breakfast. On the 2nd floor you will feel at home at the large table in the comfortable sofas of the Studio, you can chat with whoever you want, friends or other tourists or simply deal with your e-mails. BARlo offers you refreshing drinks. The top is the bar A.R.T. NoMad (Arlo Roof Top) located on 31st with stunning views of the Empire State Building. Do you dare to stand on the glass floor tiles and watch the yellow taxis under your feet?
