Overview
Step right outside Thirty Thirty Hotel for a 20/20, up-close view of the Empire State Building--it's just 4 blocks away. Survey the city from the Empire State Building's 2 sky-high observatories. Once your feet are back on the ground, stroll 1 block farther to another New York icon: the flagship Macy's Herald Square, one of the largest department stores in the world.
As you explore the city, take a break and cool your heels in leafy Madison Square Park, less than a 10-minute walk from the hotel. The park is home to celebrity chef Danny Meyer's first Shake Shack stand, a local favorite. Look around to admire the magnificent historic landmarks towering over the park: the gold-crowned New York Life Building, completed in 1928, and the Metropolitan Life Tower, the world's tallest building when it was completed in 1909. The triangular Flatiron Building is across the street, where Fifth Avenue meets Broadway. The Broadway Theater District itself is a mile away. And a subway stop is about 2 blocks from the Thirty Thirty.
You don't have to venture far for dinner and drinks. The Zana Café and Bar, adjoining the hotel, showcases Mediterranean fare for lunch and dinner, and serves American favorites for breakfast. Weather permitting, you can dine European-style on the sidewalk patio. Want to burn off some calories? Ask the hotel's front desk staff for a pass to Boom Fitness, an upscale health club 4 blocks away. It's open 24 hours a day, Monday morning till Friday evening, and also open weekends. Another healthy plus: the Thirty Thirty is completely smoke-free.
When it's time to turn in, retreat to your modern and stylish guestroom. Freshly renovated in 2011, all rooms offer wireless Internet access (surcharge) and flat-panel TVs. Snuggle up in the crisp new linens and cozy duvet. A clock radio with iPod dock is bedside, so you can wake up to your own playlist. Ready to head out for the day? Just stash your laptop in the programmable in-room safe, and you're on your way.
