Nice to haves

Situated on a one-way street in the heart of Greenwich Village that Eleonor Roosevelt once called home, this six-storey Romanesque Revival building makes for a classic New York home from home.

Inside, the spacious apartment blends original nineteenth-century features and modern finishes offering a breathtaking fusion of styles. An open-plan living room/kitchen provides direct access to the outdoors via a balcony, alongside expansive views over downtown. So there's plenty of space to come together and socialise, whether you're stretched out on the sofa or preparing dinner in the handcrafted kitchen. 

Elsewhere, the bedrooms offer a haven of zen-like calm in the middle of Manhattan, with walk-in wardrobes and a Carrara marble en-suite off the main bedroom, adding a touch of luxury. Head upstairs, and you'll uncover a rooftop terrace that offers direct southern vistas over Washington Square Park, MacDougal Alley and the Empire State Building. 

Down at street level, the delights of Greenwich Village await. Undoubtedly Manhattan's most charming neighbourhood, it's attracted the city's quirky and creative types since the sixties. Uproarious comedy clubs and excellent restaurants make it a real nighttime destination, but there's plenty to do during daylight hours. Stroll half a block to the much-loved Washington Square Park, lay out on Pier 45, or wander up to Chelsea Market for cuisine from every part of the globe – both fifteen minutes away.

While this home may be modest in square footage, it sure is mighty. Packing a punch in both convenience and amenities, a solo traveller or couple will be very happy here. With an impressive private terrace – that's almost as big as the home itself – you can thoroughly enjoy some downtime after a busy day with an aperitif under the stars. When you do find yourself at home, there's a comfortable sofa, writing desk and kitted-out kitchen complete with washer and dryer – a rarity in an NYC studio – so you can show up and start living as soon as you arrive. And did we mention that it's only a ten-minute walk to the Flatiron building? Continue for ten minutes more and you’ll reach the Empire State, the Morgan Library and Museum and the tucked away barbecue joints of bustling Koreatown.

Location is everything here! Situated on a really charming street in Greenwich Village, The Itty-Bitty is perfectly positioned to some of the city's best restaurants and bars.

There's nowhere that says New York living quite like a loft – it's as New York as skyscrapers, Times Square and Central Park, and this stylish place in hip Tribeca is a classic example. All the typical elements are here – we're talking an open, spacious living space with high ceilings, towering columns, huge windows and wooden floors.

What sets this home apart from others, though, is its fabulous art collection and many pieces from luminary designers such as Gerrit Rietveld and Sori Yanagi, as well as light sculptures by Marrow Project. We could certainly tell on viewing that this apartment is owned by a creative director and designer. Select a bottle from the wine cooler, choose one of the books off the well-stocked shelves and relax in style.

You can really live like a local in this home's location as well. This Lower Manhattan neighbourhood is known for its cobblestone streets lined with fashionable boutiques and chic restaurants or soak up the atmosphere in nearby China Town. Oh, yes and if you're a film buff, you can get your fill with the Tribeca Film Festival, held here every June.




Sculpted by Light

Cot / Crib

The Art Enthusiast

Try a different one every day between visiting Rockefeller Park, Washington Square Park and China Town.  There's plenty else to see within walking distance, but the public transport links nearby can also get you to The Empire State Building or Manhattan Park in minutes.

Bauhaus Quarters

First Aid Kit

Located just off Stuyvesant Square Park, this practical apartment is surrounded by peaceful open spaces all while placing you in the heart of nonstop NYC. You're also a short walk from leafy Union Square, with plenty of casual eateries and bars nearby. Back home, the space is bright and comfortable with the large windows framing pleasant green views.

Rooftop Terrace

Sitting on your private rooftop terrace, looking over the concrete skyline, is a once-in-a-lifetime moment that stays with you forever. The magical experience can be relived over and over again, all in a beautiful outdoor space that's reserved just for you.

The rooftop may be the outstanding highlight of this deluxe apartment, but the interior has a lot to love too. It spans across two floors, offering wide space that is incredibly rare in the centre of the city. it's an open-plan social area that's perfect for chatting about your New York adventure.

That adventure can begin the moment you step onto the charming sophistication of Chelsea. Get a bagel for breakfast with a cup of coffee and walk amongst the boutique stores and suave cafes. Carry on walking just a few more minutes and you'll reach the word-renowned energy of Times Square. 

Spend your days shopping, sightseeing or exploring the various top-class eating spots. While you're out for the day, pick up a bottle of champagne for mesmerising sunsets on the terrace. It's an idyllic way to celebrate the beauty of your private haven.




Tinted Whispers

Located on a charming cobblestone street in the South Street Seaport and built in 1793, this lovely, European-inspired loft was once an ice house. Sparely furnished and set across two floors with an intentional open-plan living space, the easy flow between rooms is freeing. Both levels boast wood-beamed ceilings and original artwork created by the host himself. While this isn't the most luxurious home on our books, it's cosy and bright, a fluid mix of rustic and modern. 


The Cobblestone

Outdoor Kitchen

This home doesn’t try too hard, and that’s part of its charm. The building is almost a hundred years old, and as it used to be a tenement block, there would have been four or five places in the space that this roomy home now takes up. The living area benefits from large windows and tonnes of natural light, making the plush grey sectional a lovely spot to spend the afternoon reading or napping. Of course, if you have work to do instead, the corner desk is all set up for hitting the ground running. Prepare an elaborate feast in the huge kitchen (massive by New York standards) and enjoy it at the elegant dining table. There’s lots of exciting artwork (and taxidermy) around, contributing to the home’s quirky personality, plus two newly renovated bathrooms - no morning queues here. When you’re ready to explore, you’ll be deep in the East Village, with endless options for good, hip restaurants and watering holes that range from dive bars to artisanal cocktail destinations. Plus, you’re just a four-minute walk from Tompkins Square Park, where you can enjoy one of the city’s lovely green spaces.

Chopsticks

Experience one of New York's trendiest areas from this sleek apartment nestled in the heart of Greenwich Village. You'll be within easy reach of Union Square market, with hip eateries and bars nearby. For those on a sightseeing trip, popular spots such as Flatiron Building, the Empire State Building and Madison Square Garden are all a short walk away. With a well-equipped kitchen and dining table there's potential for eating in, while the laptop-friendly desk serves as a nice space for working remotely – though some street noise should be expected. 

Manhattan's Calling

Smart TV

Small but stylish, this apartment is perfect for a solo traveller. It may be pocket-sized, but the design makes the most of the space. There's a small desk if you're in town on business, a compact kitchenette ideal for post-adventure snacks, and a quaint bedroom where you can relax after sightseeing around The Big Apple. Speaking of, you'll be in the trendy Lower East Side, a short stroll away from multiple subway stations and close to great bars and restaurants. This is a walk-up apartment, though, so climbing stairs is necessary.

Equipped with thirty windows, this home boasts a 360° view of the city, including views of the Manhattan Bridge and St. Theresa’s church. This isn’t something we take lightly– getting any views in New York is a highlight, let alone ones as charming as these. Host Manon has lovingly adorned the entire space in an eclectic, bohemian look that perfectly suits its vibrant neighbourhood. Situated between the Lower East Side and Chinatown, there is an abundance of great restaurants, bars, and boutique shops. Plus, it’s easy to walk into Brooklyn via the Manhattan Bridge. 

The Imagined Life

Dive headfirst into the ultimate New York experience. This home has a chef's kitchen and a barbecue for meals on the private terrace, as well as an outdoor lounge for post-dinner drinks. Plus, with a Peloton bike and Lululemon Studio Workout Mirror, you'll find everything you need to stay on top of your workouts. Though the space feels calm, the city sounds will gently remind you that you're in the heart of the Big Apple. Just outside, the galleries and restaurants of Union Square and NoHo are waiting to be explored. However, we won't blame you if the allure of an evening at home with a martini in the garden followed by a soak in the marble tub proves irresistible.

Single-Level Home

Small yet mighty, this studio apartment is perfectly suited for a short escape in eclectic Williamsburg. A stroll around the immediate neighbourhood will have you wandering past quintessential brownstones, hip street art and chic boutiques. Just like its sophisticated interiors, this is a worldly location, just moments from plenty of outstanding cafes, bars, and restaurants, as well as some brilliant vintage shopping. Elsewhere, hop on the subway – Marcy Av station is a six-minute walk away – and be at the historic Brooklyn Bridge within twenty minutes. Back inside, the home has been cleverly designed to take full advantage of the compact space – with twelve-foot ceilings, it actually feels a lot bigger than it is. Looking around at the decor, you'll find the elegant four-poster bed – fit for a king or queen – a stylish marble backsplash in the kitchenette and plenty of dark oak and light blue tones that makes the apartment feel grand yet cosy. The marble-clad bathroom benefits from a rainfall shower, providing everything you need for a sweet stay in the heart of the city. 

Yes M'Lady

First-time visitors to The Big Apple can't go wrong with this sleek studio apartment. Not only is it smartly laid out to maximise the space, but it's stylish, too – characterful artwork hangs in the living area, subway tiles line the kitchen walls and trendy exposed shelves show off the crockery. Your hosts go above and beyond to ensure you have an excellent stay, providing toiletries, welcome chocolates and even earplugs for a restful night's sleep. Pull up a stool and enjoy breakfasts around the kitchen island, sink into the leather sofa for a movie night and drift off in the comfortable bed after a busy day exploring. Speaking of, this apartment is located where Chelsea, Midtown and Hudson Yards all meet. While it's not the liveliest part of town, everything you'll want or need is within walking distance, be it the global eateries and food stalls in Chelsea Market – fifteen minutes away – or the bright lights of Times Square – twenty minutes on foot. Plus, you're just one block from the famous High Line and two blocks from Penn Station, where you can catch the subway and zip around the rest of New York City in no time.

If you’ve ever wondered how to get privacy in New York City, we’ve found the answer for you – fifty-two floors off the ground! And that’s exactly what you’ll get at Belle Vue. With floor-to-ceiling windows and sweeping city views, this glossy home matches its slick cityscape. While the surrounding skyscrapers make for incredible impressions, the downside is that this area is mainly commercial and therefore not the most vibrant neighbourhood. If you’re okay with that, however, you’ll love that the building grants guests access to the private gym and pool. 

Belle Vue

Quirky details, like the exposed brick wall and fashion photography prints, inject character into this otherwise minimal home. The bedrooms are on the small side, but the beds are seriously comfortable, with a TV in both. It feels a bit compact, especially with the narrow shape of the kitchen and the dining table taking up most of the communal space. Nonetheless, the location in Nolita makes up for this – surrounded by little shops and cool restaurants, you won’t be spending much time cooking anyway.

From the moment you step inside this New York loft apartment, you can tell the owners are an artist and a chef. The huge, open living area has a gourmet-level kitchen and light floods in from a wall of windows, plus there's an incredible art and design collection. One bedroom is a little small but both are perfectly comfortable and the vast loft-style living area makes up for it. You’re in the heart of Tribeca here where the movie-set-like cast iron loft buildings are home to endless restaurants, bars and even food markets. Plus, the Lower East Side is right next door. 

The Artist's Loft

When exposed brick and chandeliers combine, you know you're in for a treat. This vibrant, cosy apartment is filled with colourful art and unique touches like a skylight in the shower and a cute little garden area outside. It’s a small home, but it has everything you need for a convenient stay in New York. The kitchen's well-equipped with stainless steel appliances and the open-plan layout is perfect for a chill night in with Netflix and wine. Location is really the biggest perk here: sandwiched between Soho and the West Village, you're right in the heart of all the downtown action. Whether you're a culture vulture keen on gallery hopping and ducking into jazz bars, or a fashionista ready to do some damage in one of the world's best neighbourhoods for shopping, you'll be in the thick of it all – plus the dining and nightlife options are some of the best the city has to offer.

Chandelier Life

This luxurious home is a Gramercy Park gem. Step from the tree-lined block to a world of style and elegance, accessed via a grand staircase. You’ll know you’ve arrived when you take in the 12-foot-tall ceilings, marble staircase, and piano in the parlour. The chef’s kitchen, which leads to a deck with direct access to a private landscaped garden space, is a splendid spot for gathering together, whether you’re a keen home cook or prefer to order in. The rest of this beautiful home unfolds over three floors – there’s no chance of feeling crowded here. 

Gramercy Goals

Nestled in New York City's vibrant Flatiron neighbourhood, this pet-friendly studio makes a fabulous base for business and leisure trips. The kitchenette is small but well-equipped for rustling up light bites or a quick breakfast, and with plenty of restaurants in the surrounding area, you'll want for nothing when it comes to trying out local cuisine. The nearby subway opens up the city for commuting and sightseeing, while hotspots like Madison Square Park, the Empire State Building, and NYC's bustling Koreatown are an easy walk away.

The Heart of Flatiron

This apartment is ideally suited to those looking to drop their bags and head out from the get-go. Its major draw is the fabulous location, placing you in the thick of NYC. Just a short walk away you'll reach the iconic Flatiron Building, the Empire State Building, and Union Square – though this does mean that some noise should be expected. Inside, it's surprisingly spacious for a studio flat, with a kitchen and dining area tucked neatly around the corner. There's a sofa bed for flexible sleeping, but we only recommend this for younger children. 

The Artful Zen

Built in 1796, this red-brick townhouse is one of the oldest houses in New York City. While the exterior is a beautiful example of Federal architecture, the interior is all modernity with a sleek gourmet kitchen to please the fussiest of chefs and a huge main bedroom with a free-standing tub in the loft. Those working remotely can make use of the dedicated office room and there are additional workstations in some of the bedrooms. There’s plenty of room to spread out between the main lounge, the movie room downstairs and the private backyard furnished with a dining table. 

Manhattan Max

Located in East Village, this apartment is ideal for a solo traveller or couple visiting the city. You'll have countless eateries, trendy bars, and casual cafes on your doorstep, as well as the popular green space of Tompkins Square Park. At home, it's stylish and uncluttered so you can sprawl out and relax at the end of a busy day exploring Manhattan. If you're looking to work while you're away, there's a work desk area in the bedroom – though it's also worth noting that some street noise should be expected.

City life is all about location. And this apartment in Hell's Kitchen – a vibrant neighbourhood in Manhattan – delivers just that. Within walking distance to Times Square, the Hudson River, shopping streets, and culinary delights, you can spend your days pounding the pavement and seeing all that this area has to offer. And, while the apartment itself is a tad on the small side, it offers everything you could need for a fuss-free stay in "The Big Apple", with the added bonus of a desk for working on the go. 

Midtown Haven

Trash Compactor

High Chair

Lofts in the Big Apple don’t get more iconic than this. High ceilings, exposed brick and pipes, Corinthian columns and a stainless steel, industrial style kitchen that radiates a forthright New York attitude. The contemporary design hits just the right note of comfort and cool, and its modern bathrooms offer luxurious relaxation—we’d be making a beeline for that Jacuzzi bath. After a hot coffee at the breakfast bar and placing a bottle of wine in the cooler for later, it’s time to get stuck into your NoHo locale. Situated just east of Broadway, connecting you to the heart of the dazzling Theatre District, and adjacent to the bohemian East Village, where you’re in touching distance of endless old-school bars, cool cocktail lounges, vintage shops and hip restaurants. If you want to head outside of Lower Manhattan, Bleecker Street subway station is a two-minute walk away. 

The Special Relationship

Take the tastiest bite from The Big Apple when you choose this stellar home. Conveniently based in the very heart of NYC, nestled between Lower Manhattan and SoHo on the famous road of Broadway, this penthouse apartment provides the quintessential New York City experience. Here, you'll be within easy reach of some quality art galleries and quirky museums, as well as sightseeing spots such as Washington Square Park. Inside the home, you'll find contemporary furnishings that still have a warm and welcoming feel. We reckon it makes a fantastic base for exploring this iconic city.

The Secret of Manhattan

Bicycles

We love this stylish home's location in hip Tribeca, a neighbourhood known for its cobblestone streets lined with fashionable boutiques and chic restaurants. Chinatown is a twenty-minute walk or eight-minute ride, while the One World Trade Centre is eight minutes on foot. The iconic Empire State building is a fifteen-minute drive (just over twenty minutes on the bicycles your lovely host Yvonne provides), or if you fancy some green space, Washington Market Park is a mere two-minute stroll.

Back at this apartment, head up to the gorgeous, private roof terrace and take in the views over the Freedom Tower. Inside, textural 3D artworks adorn the walls, and dark oak floors are enlivened with colourful rugs and furnishings. For the kids, there's a fantastic play area with plenty of toys, books and games. There's a home cinema set up too. Our favourite feature, though, has to be the swing in the living area – so random and yet so right. This playful home is perfect for a family.





It Don’t Mean a Thing if It Ain’t Got That Swing	

The sheer white curtains, lush plant life, and bright decor of this fabulous home put you immediately at ease in this bustling and lively city. Situated on a quiet Chelsea block, it's just minutes away from the bars and galleries this arty neighbourhood is known for. Plus, you're a twelve-minute walk from the Flatiron and can arrive in the Meatpacking District within fifteen minutes. The nearest train station, 23rd Street, is just a three-minute walk away if you need to go further afield. This is a tiny, 300-square foot studio, so won't be for those needing to spread out. But it's quaint and cosy as can be for a solo traveller or romantic getaway – and with a location like this, we think you'll be doing more going out than staying in.

Mini Bar

Cloud Divine is one of the real jewels in The Plum Guide's New York crown. Located in the ever-hip neighbourhood of Tribeca, this is an art-lover's paradise like no other. If you like pared-down design and muted colours then look away now. This palatial home is a picture of vibrant pink walls, red velvet furnishings, and fabulous, original art pieces. Daringly glamorous, to stay here is to move into a dreamlike home with gold pillars, a marble fireplace and a grand white piano at its eclectic core. Fix up a couple of drinks at the swanky cocktail bar before playing games in a bright and airy viewing room, benefitting from a yellow semicircular sofa that belongs in the movies. Whether you're bringing the whole family along to bask in this luxurious home or having to work during your stay in the city, this apartment is perfectly suited. The children's bedroom is a colourful and playful space full of striking artwork adorning the walls, while you'll find a cosy dedicated office area with an extensive collection of literature, a guitar and serene green tones. Beyond this dazzling home, the delights of trendy Tribeca awaits. A stroll through the immediate neighbourhood will have you wandering past quintessential brownstone buildings, chic boutiques and plush bars. Visit the historic Brooklyn Bridge, under a twenty-five-minute walk away, or head to the scenic Hudson River, just half a mile from your door, for a breather from the pulse of the city. So, if you want to feel like you've stepped straight into an interiors magazine – you really could spend hours admiring the artwork here – in a great part of NYC, then look no further. This one's definitely ready for its Instagram close-up. 

Cloud Divine

Whether you're in Manhattan for business or pleasure, this apartment is a fuss-free spot to rest your head. It's perched in bustling Midtown East, just a few blocks from the East River and walking distance from landmarks like Rockefeller Center and the MoMA. The apartment itself isn't wow-worthy, but it's stylish enough and the kitchen is well-equipped for an NYC pad. Be sure to take advantage of on-site amenities, ranging from a shared library and rooftop terrace to a communal fitness centre and playroom for little ones. There's even rare on-site parking, but you’ll need to pay to use it.

Starlight Sky

Tucked away in the Upper East Side, this home is an ideal base for a couple or solo traveller on a New York getaway. Sure, it’s not the biggest, but it has all the essentials for a comfortable stay, including a kitchenette perfect for rustling up light bites. Locally, hop on the Roosevelt Island Tram to explore across the East River, or take a stroll to Central Park to soak up some green space, less than twenty minutes away on foot. 

Upper East Side Essence

Set in the heart of Chelsea’s historic district, this stunning, family-friendly townhouse is appointed with a traditional interior that will delight guests looking for all the comforts of home as well as a splendid location. If you fancy yourself a bit of a chef (or just like having nice food cooked for you), you’ll love the impressive kitchen with its all-modern appliances. While most of the home is outfitted with luxury finishes and high-end furnishings, the hosts have cleverly created a children’s floor, equipped with paint easels, a keyboard and lots of games to help create the ultimate family experience in the heart of the Big Apple. In keeping with your masterpiece of a home, Chelsea in Manhattan's art district. You can spend days wandering galleries displaying work from both established and emerging artists, while the High Line is a living work of art in its own right.
