New York Marriott Marquis

Overview

Not only is this hotel overlooking Times Square, but it's also got the city's only revolving dining room with 360-degree views of Manhattan! It couldn't be any more central (said in Chandler's voice). On top of that, there's the 8th-floor terrace bar, rooms with a view of the NYE ball drop and even a Starbucks for your daily caffeine fix. City-centre living doesn't get much better than this.

Just a heads up, a facility fee of $30 per room, per night applies at this hotel - and it's exclusive of tax!

Food & Drink

• The View Restaurant Le Petit Chef - the unique dining experience that everyone's talking about. Watch as a tiny, animated, French chef prepares a 4-course meal for you (don't worry, you do get real food here, too) - this is one that the kids, and your Insta followers, will love!

• Broadway Lounge - floor-to-ceiling windows give you the best view possible of Times Square, while you sip a cocktail or enjoy a bite to eat and watch the world go by
