The Knickerbocker Hotel
A revamped Times Square classic
VERIFIED LUXURY
We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience goes beyond how your surroundings look — how your visit makes you feel is what you will remember most.
We started in 1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.
Five-Star

Four-Star

For those inclined to brave the wild refuge that is Times Square, check into The Knickerbocker Hotel. Here, you can revel in every delight that
NYC has to offer.
Built by business titan John Jacob Astor IV, the hotel reigned as a testament to early 20th century opulence (it’s rumored to be the birthplace of the martini). The Knickerbocker helped make Times Square into a destination, until Prohibition hurt business and forced its closure.
Since its reopening in 2015, the New York City hotel has reacquired its lofty standing and remains one of the places to stay in Times Square.
