HotelChatter's Midtown Manhattan Hotel Bar Crawl

While staying in Midtown Manhattan would never be our first choice for visiting the Big Apple, we understand that those not so familiar with the city want to stay there for touristy and possibly, business reasons. So should you find yourself stuck somewhere near Times Square, Hotel Maven Annie0007 has put together a Midtown Hotel Bar Crawl that will help you navigate the finer places in Midtown to enjoy a drink. Enjoy.

New York has a wealth of famous hotels that are just as famous for their esteemed drinking establishments. We found one city block that represents the best hotels and the best hotel bars; where an internationally known grand old Gotham watering hole rubs up against the ultimate in boutique chic bars, adjacent to a bistro/bar of unparalleled romance, next to a nightcap by a flickering fireplace.

Our recommendation for best the best place in New York to hotel bar hop is West 44th Street between 5th and 6th Avenues, nicknamed "Club Row." Within walking distance to Fifth Avenue, Times Square, and the theatre district, this singular Manhattan block boasts some of the most exciting private clubs in the city, from the Harvard Club, Penn Club, New York Bar Association and Small Press Center, to the astonishing nautical architecture of the New York Yacht Club.

But it also has six hotels, nearly side by side, that together, make for a midtown bar crawl that sums up the diversity, history, and texture of Manhattan.
