Hilton has opened the 400-room Motto by Hilton New York City Times Square, the second hotel from the brand in New York City.

“We are thrilled to welcome guests to Motto by Hilton Times Square, a landmark moment for the brand and an ideal addition to Hilton’s presence in New York City,” said Theodora De Souza, brand leader, Motto by Hilton. “This new hotel exemplifies the Motto brand essence. It is centrally located in one of the city’s most famed neighborhoods and incorporates flexible and modern design elements, encouraging guests to connect and reflect on the cityscape, moments from the best of Broadway, museums, dining and culture.”

The hotel is located just above 47th St. close to 41 Broadway theaters, and is also near The Metropolitan Museum of Art, MoMA and The Guggenheim, in addition to Radio City Music Hall and Rockefeller Center.

The hotel features guestrooms with flexible sleeping setups including a queen Bunkie (bunk bed) with a twin bed above, a queen flex bed that stows into the wall and standard queen bed, and tiled showers with premium bath amenities and high-quality shower heads. Guests can also adjust room temperature and lighting by mobile device. The property also includes the brand’s signature sets of connecting rooms, providing guests the ability to book up to six adjoining rooms together.

With the debut of the Motto property, alongside the recent and upcoming openings of Tempo by Hilton, Home2 Suites by Hilton and Hampton by Hilton in Times Square this summer, Hilton will add nearly 2,000 rooms to its portfolio in the location.
