Westin NY Times Square |
The Westin New York’s impressive 45-story tower distinguishes this 873-room landmark hotel, as does its prime location right in the heart of Broadway. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg described the hotel as a key component of "the renaissance of the Times Square area," pointing out that it represents "the western edge of the largest urban redevelopment project in New York City's history."
The hotel's central Midtown location showcases spectacular views and is literally steps away from more than 40 Broadway theatres, world-famous shopping destinations, restaurants and exciting entertainment venues.
