Out exploring first?
Your block, mapped
Hotel and restaurant are both on the far west side of Hell's Kitchen, so plenty is close. From our door, The Glasshouse is about 2 minutes, the Intrepid Museum about 5, and DeWitt Clinton Park about 7.
Farther afield, the C/E subway at 50th Street is about a 12-minute walk, and Times Square is about 20 minutes on foot or a short cab.
In summer, the retractable glass roof opens up to the skyline; come winter, it closes and the heat goes on. One thing to plan around: we're closed on Mondays.
Closed Mondays. Tables are held for 90 minutes.
