Editorial take
Who should book Distrikt Hotel New York City?
If this is your first New York trip, shortlist Distrikt Hotel New York City for a practical reason: Airport coach arrivals, light sleepers in a noisy area, Broadway trips. The name, star rating and lobby photos matter, but the real test is whether the location helps your days feel easier.
It is less compelling if you want a scenic street or a quiet neighbourhood feel. Before booking from the UK, compare the final price after taxes and property fees, check the exact room setup and make sure your airport arrival route is not needlessly awkward.

Review questions
What travellers keep asking.
Is it noisy next to the Port Authority?
The street is, but the rooms have triple-paned windows specifically to deal with it. It is one of the better-insulated options in this part of Midtown.
Is it convenient for Newark?
Very. The Port Authority Bus Terminal is essentially next door, which is where the Newark airport coaches run from, so it suits a late arrival or an early departure.
