Choosing an area
- Times Square and the Theater District: closest to the theatres, busiest and most expensive.
- Hell's Kitchen and Midtown West: a short walk west, with more restaurants and often better value.
- Midtown East and Grand Central: quieter, with a subway or taxi ride to the theatres.
- Near Penn Station: good for trains in and out, about a 10 to 15 minute walk to Times Square.
