CB! Approved Hotels and Resorts

Located in the heart of Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the Hotel Beacon is a haven for smart tourists seeking a more residential experience in the Big Apple. The Beacon is a perfect base for a family visiting New York. It’s situated in an upscale neighborhood with easy access to the city’s fabled food markets, boutiques, top restaurants and the 1,2,3 and 9 and B, C subways. Central Park is three blocks away, gracious Riverside Park is two blocks, and the hotel is adjacent to the famed Beacon Theatre. The lobby is bright and open, the decor is un-fussy but up-to-date (the hotel was recently renovated). Guest rooms are spacious, which is rare in New York, and feature kitchenettes which make it convenient for moms wanting to keep their children fed and hydrated during a whirlwind trip to the city.
