Penthouse Suite , The Times Square EDITION

If you want to be in the heart of it all, The Times Square EDITION is a chic and contemporary haven rising 42 stories above the bright lights of New York City’s most famed location.

Unquestionably stylish and unapologetically swanky, the hotel, with 452 rooms and suites, brings its own level of style to Midtown Manhattan. EDITION’s co-creator Ian Schrager (co-founder of the legendary Studio 54) worked with lauded interior duo Yabu Pushelberg to create irresistibly photogenic public spaces adorned in verdant botanical walls, moody lighting, towering velvet curtains and pops of electric blue. 

However, it’s not all style and no substance; a destination in its own right, the hotel is home to veg-forward dining from acclaimed chef John Fraser and Studio 54-inspired nightspot, Paradise Club, hosting dance, cabaret and music performances.

The dramatic interiors downstairs stand in contrast to the hotel’s rooms and suites which are dressed in varying shades of white and offer a tranquil space above the bright lights of the world’s best-known crossroads. 

The 1,300-sq-ft Penthouse Suite feels more like a luxury New York City apartment with views stretching out towards the Hudson River. 

The spacious living room is decked with a pale herringbone floor and features wrap-around floor-to-ceiling windows, leading to an impressive 300-sq-ft furnished terrace – a real rarity in this part of the city. The dining table seats eight and there is a full kitchenette should you need it, as well as a library.

The one-and-a-half bathrooms are decorated in natural stone and feature luxury Le Labo amenities. After a day in the city, the Japanese-style soaking tub is the perfect spot to unwind.
