Centric Times Square New York
Contemporary urban hotel with strong design sensibility. Locally-inspired artwork, warm wood tones, good energy. Not luxury — no butler service, no marble lobby — but genuinely stylish for the price point and location.
Pay the premium for a high-floor Times Square view room (41st floor+) — the difference is significant
Why It Matters
Bar 54 claims the title of New York City's highest hotel cocktail bar at 54 floors up. The location is half a block from Times Square proper — close enough to walk to Broadway theatres, far enough to avoid the worst of the tourist crush. No spa on-site, no pool, but the views from high-floor rooms and suites are as good as NYC gets.
A 54-story glass tower sitting just off the neon sprawl of Times Square on West 45th Street. Hyatt Centric is Hyatt's design-forward, non-luxury sub-brand, and this property does it well: 487 rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, locally inspired artwork, actual color on the walls. The rooms are compact by any standard other than Manhattan's, but the views — especially from the 40th floor and up — are genuinely spectacular. Bar 54 on the top floor is NYC's highest hotel cocktail bar, and it's the real reason people keep coming back.
Where You'll Stay
13 room types available
1 King Bed
The entry-level room and honestly one of the more honest in the portfolio. Thirty square meters in Manhattan is tight but well-designed. Floor-to-ceiling windows, rain shower, Hyatt pillowtop mattress, Keurig, and a minifridge. City view rather than a direct Times Square look, which suits people who want to sleep in the dark.
King · 30 sqm
1 King Bed City View
On the 20th floor and above, this is a slightly larger king with city views of the Times Square neighborhood. The extra floor space versus the base king is noticeable. Rain shower, floor-to-ceiling windows, full standard amenity package.
King · 32 sqm1 King Bed High Floor Times Square View
This is the sweet spot for Times Square obsessives. Starts on the 41st floor, so you're genuinely looking down at the light show rather than across at it. An extra square meter versus the standard king, plus bathrobes and slippers are included (not just available on request).
King · 31 sqm1 King High Floor City View
Same footprint as the standard king but starting from the 27th floor, so the views of northern Manhattan actually earn the upgrade. The difference between this and a Times Square view room is orientation — this looks north, which means Empire State Building and beyond rather than the billboard wall.
King · 30 sqm1 King High Floor Skyline View Suite
This is where the hotel stops being compact. Forty-second floor and above, 42 sqm, with a soaking tub and separate rain shower — a meaningful upgrade from standard rooms. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the city skyline. Robes and slippers are standard, not on request.
King · 42 sqm1 King Times Square View Suite
44th floor and above looking directly at Times Square. At 46 sqm you get a separate living area with a sleeper sofa — a real suite layout, not just a bigger room. Soaking tub and separate rain shower. This is the pick for couples who want the full Times Square view experience without going full Premier.
King · 46 sqm
2 Queen ADA Shower
The largest of the accessible rooms at 34 sqm — slightly more space than the standard queen configurations. Fully accessible bathroom, wide doorways, lowered switches and peepholes. BeeKind bath amenities rather than the Drybar set.
2 Queens · 34 sqm
2 Queen Beds
Two queen beds in 32 sqm is a tight but functional setup for families or friends sharing. Same package as the standard king — rain shower, Keurig, minifridge, floor-to-ceiling windows. Robes available on request rather than provided automatically.
2 Queens · 32 sqm2 Queen Beds City View
Located on the 20th floor and above with views of the Times Square neighborhood. Good option for two-bed families who want to be elevated without paying full suite prices.
2 Queens · 32 sqm2 Queen High Floor City View
27th floor and above, looking out over northern Manhattan. Two queen beds, locally inspired decor, spacious desk, rain shower. Good pick for families who want a higher perch without suiting up.
2 Queens · 32 sqm2 Queen High Floor Oversized City View
42 sqm with two queen beds and a soaking tub — the largest double-bed configuration in the hotel. City views through floor-to-ceiling windows, modern furnishings, spacious desk. Good for families or two adults who want real room to move.
2 Queens · 42 sqmExecutive Suite
The standard suite category — 55 sqm with a king bed, separate living area with sleeper sofa and desk, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a rain shower. This is a World of Hyatt standard suite, so eligible for complimentary upgrades for Globalist members when available.
King · 55 sqmTimes Square Premier Suite
The top of the house. 76 sqm on the 40th floor with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Times Square. One king bed, a separate living area with sleeper sofa, and a soaking tub with separate shower. This is the only room in the hotel with enough space to actually feel like you're not in a compact New York room.
