RIVERSIDE TOWER HOTEL, New York

The Riverside Tower Hotel is within easy reach of New York's top attractions: Central Park is less than 1 km away, the American Museum of Natural History is 805 m away, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art is 2 km from the property. The nearest subway station is on the corner of 79th Street and Broadway, just 1.5-2.5 minutes on foot, providing a direct 7- to 10-minute subway ride to Times Square. Zabar's market is 322 m away, and numerous restaurants and cafés - including The Boat Basin Cafe, Coppola's Pizzeria, and Nice Matin - are within 0.5 km. The area is safe to walk alone at night, and the 1 train connects quickly to Midtown and downtown.

Accommodation options include single, double, twin, and suite configurations. All rooms feature air conditioning, heating, a hairdryer, and a private shower (no bathtubs). Suites offer river views, a well-fitted kitchen with a stovetop, refrigerator, dishwasher, and kitchenware. Some rooms have a bunk bed that sleeps two, a balcony, or a terrace. Rooms are newly renovated but very compact - storage is limited to a few hooks and under-bed drawers, and full-size luggage may not open fully in standard rooms. The beds are shorter and narrower than average (approximately a full-size or smaller), so taller travellers may find the length insufficient. Rooms on higher floors offer quieter conditions, while road-facing units can pick up traffic noise from the Henry Hudson Parkway. Suites and penthouses provide more space and can accommodate families.

The property does not have a restaurant, bar, or breakfast offering. However, a lobby kitchenette provides free coffee and tea each morning from 7-11 AM, along with a microwave, electric kettle, toaster, and a shared fridge. Water is available for bottle refilling. For full meals, Zabar's and numerous restaurants are within a short walk, including Coppola's Pizzeria, Nice Matin, Europan Bakery Cafe, and Cafe Eighty Two.

The on-site fitness centre is open 24 hours and includes a range of weights. Water is available for refilling bottles. There is no swimming pool, spa, or wellness centre. Riverside Park, directly across the street, offers jogging and walking paths along the Hudson River.

The hotel provides complimentary WiFi in all rooms. A 24-hour front desk and concierge can assist with tour planning, maps, and transport advice. Guests can use the luggage storage free of charge before check-in or after checkout. The property has key card access, CCTV in common areas, and a lift (two elevators, though one may occasionally be out of service). Wheelchair access is available, with features including a raised toilet, grab rails, and a lower bathroom sink. Pets are not allowed. Accepted payment cards include American Express, Visa, Discover, and MasterCard. A business centre, fax/photocopying, and express check-in/out are available. Housekeeping is provided every two days.
