My brother loves everything related to nightlife: loud music, cocktails, fun companies of guys and beautiful girls. I'm exactly the same, and that's why I'm going to New York based on his recommendations! I will stay in cool hotels that are close to the best nightclubs. In America, I trust such places; everyone here is very friendly and welcoming, especially since my brother has been to these places and already knows what the atmosphere is like.
I will check out all the options and clubs he sent me to choose my favorites for this exciting vacation! The image galleries and prices get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on March 14, 2025.

Let's see what my brother has prepared next. He wrote that he appreciated the Gansevoort Meatpacking hotel for the many shops in the area and a variety of restaurants that are convenient for a bite to eat before a night out. I also heard from him about the rooftop pool with soft sofas nearby. I love when you can relax in the sun and take a swim.
TAO Downtown Nightclub, half a mile from the hotel, operates almost all week except for two days, and the best part is that it is open from eleven PM to four AM on weekends. During this time, there are the most locals to dance and meet with! This place is expensive, you need to pay a hundred dollars just for entry, and a glass of wine will cost twenty dollars. Everyone writes about the best atmosphere for dancing, which I adore, moving a lot and enjoying the moment.
There is also the PHD Rooftop Lounge at Dream Downtown, literally in the neighboring building, operating on a similar schedule, except it is closed on Sundays as well as two weekdays. They make such beautiful and aesthetic cocktails here; for example, a Margarita costs 24 dollars, and other mixed drinks can be around 25 or 30 dollars. The club's calling card is a place where you can dance excellently. Well, New York will definitely remember me!
Deluxe rooms with a seating area right by the large windows look very cozy, but I thought, shouldn't I get a suite? Here, the bedroom is separated from the second area - with armchairs, a sofa, and a desk. After all, I hope that the gatherings will bring me a cool new group of friends, so I don't want to give up having more space! It's a pity there's no mini-bar, but you can order drinks and snacks from the staff.
Inside this hotel, there is also its own nightclub. My brother said that it is not as fun as in the city's establishments, but for the start of the evening - it’s a good option. I think I will like it, there is even a DJ with mixes of popular music!
The Towers At Lotte New York Palace
- Distance from city center:
- 5.5 km
- Bar / Lounge
- Free Wi-Fi
- Garden
- WiFi
- Air Conditioned
- Parking
- ATM / Cash Machine
Before I listened to my brother's recommendation about Lotte New York Palace, I saw that there is a transfer for guests to Wall Street and Broadway theaters. I don't like long excursions, but I would love to take a stroll around such beautiful and famous places! In the hotel, I would happily visit the spa for massages and beauty treatments, and my brother also said not to miss the steam room, which is worth visiting too.
One block away — the new club Night Encounters New York with live performances, but my brother said they might close for renovations. But such news didn't upset me much, because there's Retroclubnyc just a ten-minute walk from the hotel, which has a very high rating for New York. The DJs here carefully select various hits — there are modern ones and music from our parents' youth. But that's cool too and gives a special vibe! The entrance here costs 20 dollars, cocktails around 30, but it's better to get table service; it's more worthwhile. There are many groups of different ages, inside there's a light show and disco balls, all of this sets the mood for the most energetic dancing!
Improved rooms with a view do not differ in size and amenities, so of course, I want to take the one with a beautiful panorama of the city. It is quite spacious, even though there is quite a bit of furniture, with separate guest and work areas. I like that there are mirrors in both the bathroom and the bedroom — I need to glam up before going dancing. And by the way, this hotel already has a mini-bar in every room!
The main advantage of the hotel in the form of a spa area I have already mentioned, but there is also an evening program here. I don’t know if I will go there, but the open-air bar is definitely worth a visit just for the atmosphere of the big city around!
The Knickerbocker Hotel
- Distance from city center:
- 4.9 km
- Bar / Lounge
- Bicycle Rental
- Free Wi-Fi
- WiFi
- Air Conditioned
- Restaurant
- Refrigerator
The Knickerbocker hotel doesn't even need a transfer to Times Square because it’s already located there! That’s why they have created a huge rooftop terrace with comfortable seating areas and a view of the famous street. There, at the St. Cloud bar, they serve cocktails; my brother advises to definitely stop by here – it's calm, but you can chat with someone and relax in peace if you want.
There will definitely be no issues with alcohol at Club Cache, there is everything – from beer to strong drinks and a very extensive cocktail menu. I couldn't find exact prices, but they are not very high here; I won't pay more than 20 dollars for an alcoholic drink. The entrance fee of around 16 dollars is also very low compared to other clubs. The main appeal of this venue is the music – Latin hits are played, and both men and women happily get up to dance. In this nightclub, they also serve hookah, if I sit at a table for some time.
A little further away is the jazz club Birdland, but it is more relaxed; it's more convenient to have a drink here than to spend the whole night.
My brother stayed in a corner junior suite, and when I saw the photographs, I also got excited about this idea! The windows practically cover the entire wall, and the size of the room is huge, so you can sit with friends. The sofa bed even converts into additional sleeping places. The windows overlook Times Square, and you can even see Broadway. There is a mini-bar or you can buy something of your own for the fridge.
In the hotel description, it is mentioned everywhere that there is an evening program; my brother missed it, but I hope it is taking place on the roof! For especially active tourists, there are various types of excursions, but I think I will just stick to yoga classes during the day here.
The Ned Nomad
- Distance from city center:
- 3.7 km
- Bar / Lounge
- Massage
- Massage / Beauty Centre
- Bicycle Rental
- Free Wi-Fi
- WiFi
- Air Conditioned
Despite the ancient style of the Ned NoMad building, the services here are modern and very necessary! They have their own restaurant with signature dishes of Italian cuisine (my brother told me that the food is very tasty and there is a good selection). And on the second floor, there is a bar with various alcoholic beverages and cocktails. The restaurant offers a "happy hour" service with additional snacks and drinks. And after I try everything, I will definitely go for a body massage!
I think the club in Manhattan called Mission NYC simply can't be bad due to its location. The place is new and modern, with the same music from DJs — by the way, both female and male performers showcase various hit mixes here. On weekends, a huge and energetic crowd gathers. And if the club is hosting a special event with musicians, it’s so packed you can’t move! Drinks are up to thirty dollars, and the entrance fee is twenty. From the photos, it has a large dance floor right in front of the stage where the performers are and a vibrant light show takes place! I am sure I will make friends and this will be my brightest vacation in New York!
I appreciated that here in any room there is a separate hallway and bedroom; such a division of space makes it a cozy apartment for living. In the deluxe, the bathroom is right in the room by the windows - an unusual solution, but I'm for the classic option! So I will take the standard, where there is even a separate room with a desk and a sofa. The view is not the most interesting, but at least there will be two rooms and a coffee maker with a mini-bar for drinks.
Not far from the Fifth Avenue hotel with plenty of shops, and I love shopping no less than clubs, so in such a place, I will definitely stay for a few days!
Daria Martin
Finding an expensive hotel in New York is not that difficult, but a five-star one in every sense is worth looking for more carefully. The first one I wanted to get to know is the Equinox Hotel New York. Inside, there is an unreal amount of entertainment – from sports to regular stand-up performances and movie nights. To alternate club outings with other relaxation – the hotel is perfect for that. Moreover, you can go to a restaurant here or order breakfast in your room.
I have two clubs in mind that are a quick walk from the hotel. One has a unique atmosphere - The Tunnel Nightclub, which attracts a huge number of people because the parties there resemble the style of American the 90s! Oh my god, I really want to dive into such a trend; they often have performances by rappers. You can find company for partying here for any age! A couple of cocktails will cost me up to 30 dollars, not such a high price for New York!
The same distance of ten minutes is to the second club - Marquee New York. My brother said it operates until four in the morning, and it's especially cool to spend time in the VIP areas; the DJs always choose good music for dancing here. The drinks, however, are not cheap; I'll have to spend more than a hundred dollars for a few cocktails, but for the VIP area, I will definitely come here!
I really liked the "deluxe" accommodation option with a river view and French windows. In the mornings, you can enjoy such beauty! At the same time, the thick curtains will allow me to get a good night's sleep after the party. The bathroom is very cool, done in dark tones, but with all the amenities and free toiletries.
The first hotel already made the best impression on me! You can have a couple of cocktails and dance to live music right here, and then go to the planned clubs!
