The hotel is located at the crossroads of 42nd Street and Broadway and features 330 guest rooms including 31 suites; a signature restaurant and bar, Charlie Palmer at The Knick; St. Cloud—a 7,800-square-foot rooftop bar overlooking Times Square with a cigar lounge; a 2,200-square-foot event space for up to 160 guests; a ground level café, Jake’s; and a state-of-the art fitness center.

Located on Times Square, The Knickerbocker features a rooftop terrace with over 370 square metres of indoor and outdoor space. WiFi access is available and free of charge for guests.

Featuring a flat-screen cable TV, each room at the hotel comes with a laptop safe, a mini fridge and a desk. Many rooms feature views of the city, and the en suite bathroom comes with bathrobes, free toiletries and a hairdryer.

A 24-hour front desk welcomes guests to the Knickerbocker, which features on-site dining at Charlie Palmer at The Knick. Cocktails are served on the rooftop at St.Cloud and guests can also dine in Charlie Palmer lounge seven days a week.

Guests looking for a bit of green space can walk to Bryant Park, just 200 metres away. The New York Public Library is 3 minutes’ walk away, and the hotel is located directly above the Times Square-42nd Street Metro Station, offering easy access to the whole city.
