Sleek and stylish, this apartment offers a tranquil base for those looking to stay in Brooklyn. You'll be a short walk from open green spaces, casual eateries and hip bars, while the ferry over to Manhattan is within easy reach. There's a modern chef's kitchen and the breakfast bar doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace for those planning a business trip. But the real standout here is the private terrace which serves as a lovely spot for evening drinks as you take in the peaceful surroundings.

Nice to haves

Never underestimate architectural charm in a NYC property. It's quite popular and this Midtown property is soaked in it. You'll feel it the moment you enter this 100-year old building thanks to the tiled floor and stairs in the lobby. With its age you mustn't expect perfection and modernity but you can certainly appreciate the original fireplace and romantic views over the back garden courtyard. 


Checkered Halls

Patio / Terrace

This cosy apartment in Greenpoint is perfect for a couple’s retreat. The kitchen is just the right size for rustling up a light bite to eat, although with an abundance of eateries nearby, sampling some New York cuisine is a must. With easy access to several subway and bus lines, hopping across the Big Apple to explore fully is a breeze and at the end of the day, you won’t need your weary legs to climb any stairs – just let the building’s elevator whisk you up to your home.

Outdoor Seating

Located in trendy Greenpoint, you'll feel far removed from the big city crowds here, making it a great choice for those seeking a peaceful base. You're a short walk from waterfront parks, casual cafes and indie shops with easy access to the ferry over to Manhattan. But the biggest draw is your private roof terrace, complete with sun loungers, a barbecue and an outdoor dining area. Inside, the living area is bright and modern with sliding doors opening out to a balcony which serves as a lovely spot for morning coffee. And, if looking to catch up on work while you're away, there's a laptop-friendly desk in the bedroom. 

Brooklyn Bliss

Set just a quick ferry ride over from Manhattan, and with various subway stations nearby, the location of this Greenpoint apartment is spot-on. It's ideal for solo travellers or couples visiting the city, while the double sofa bed adds the option for a third or fourth guest (though we recommend the home for a maximum of two). The dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace and you'll find a fully-equipped kitchen that will make home cooking less of a chore. Of course, you'll also have plenty of great cafes, delis and restaurants nearby too. Best of all, the private balcony here serves as a lovely spot for enjoying an evening tipple.

Garden

It's not often you find a quiet sanctuary in the heart of a major city, but that's exactly what this apartment provides with its private garden and outdoor lounge area. We can think of nothing better than relaxing out here with a refreshing drink after sightseeing in NYC. Just a ferry ride over from Manhattan, you'll be within each reach of the top sights, while this trendy Greenpoint location offers plenty of hip bars, eateries and shops to fill your days locally. Back home, you'll find a desk if you need to work remotely, while the extra living space in the master bedroom is a nice touch. It's also worth noting that all guests will be sharing the master en-suite bathroom. 

Brooklyn Heights

Modern, bright, and a little bit luxurious – this apartment is a lovely pick for solo travellers or couples visiting the city. You'll find a well-equipped kitchen and the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace for those planning a longer stay. It's also worth noting that your host operates several apartments here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might differ slightly from the photos. However, the overall quality should remain the same. But the biggest draw is, of course, the home's fabulous Greenpoint location. You'll find open green spaces, waterfront parks, casual eateries and trendy bars right on your doorstep.

Whether you're in the city on business or ticking the Big Apple off your bucket list, this modern apartment blends hotel perks with the privacy and personality of a NYC rental to make for a convenient home away from home. Despite being a little further out, you're right along from the East River waterfront, boasting high-rise bars, leafy green expanses and a host of restaurants (a five-minute walk away). On top of this, it's only a twenty-three-minute metro ride from bustling Midtown Manhattan and a thirty-minute journey to the Empire State Building. With so much to see and do around here, and yet without the usual accompaniment of rush hour taxis and clamouring tourists around you, we really love this Greenpoint location. Inside, the bright and colourful apartment features a bespoke interior design and the unique architecture of an old factory building. This particular home provides the quintessential lofted New York-style bedroom that makes for a cosy spot to snuggle down after an afternoon spent sightseeing. Come evening, ask the hotel concierge service downstairs to point you out a couple of great eateries, before exploring Greenpoint by night – it's a friendly, artsy neighbourhood – perfect for those post-dinner strolls.

This Greenpoint pad shuns the classic Brooklyn aesthetic, stumbling upon something warmer and more colourful in the process. It’s actually part of a boutique hotel, so while it doesn’t feel totally like someone’s home (more on that later), for those looking for a slice of Brooklyn's low-key cool, with the benefit of a hotel concierge, it's an excellent option. This converted former factory has been given a head-to-toe makeover, with each of the rooms furnished individually to ensure that no two are the same. The open living area creates a great social space that extends outdoors – though you'll have a climb a few steps to reach it. Retro toys, cameras and flea market finds are dotted around the room to add a personal touch. If you want to explore further afield, you're eight minutes from the closest Metro, which will have you in Lower Manhattan in approximately twenty-five minutes. There's also the scenic East River option courtesy of the Greenpoint ferry terminal under a mile away.

Boxcar

Satellite / Cable TV

This fairly small and charming home gets a lot of natural light; the closeness to the river also makes the home feel peaceful, which is quite rare for homes in this spot. It is found in a traditional, hundred-year-old apartment building with a welcoming tiled lobby. The quaint bedroom design feels particularly inviting and it has lots of storage space. Although the location is not the most convenient, if you are happy with a ten-minute walk to the Subway, you will benefit from a home in a very quiet and private area.

The Mesmerised Voyager is located in Astoria, Queens, and we’ll tell you why this home is perfect. Not only is Astoria super well-connected to the city, it’s also got great international restaurants (Greek food is a must) and practically no tourists at all. This authentic neighbourhood has a local charm and ease you won’t find in other parts of the city. Plus, the home itself has been beautifully curated with three gorgeous bedrooms and a living room that boasts both modern and playful touches. This is a sophisticated space and a gem in our collection.

Who doesn't love the perks and delights of a boutique hotel? Nine Boxes gets the both of best worlds – it's an apartment with a private kitchen and small terrace, but it sits within a hotel so guests will be privy to all the services that come with it. You'll have access to a free shuttle service (within a mile radius), fresh coffee and tea and swanky communal areas to lounge around in. This isn't a homestay if that's what you're after, but it's a great option for anyone who likes the luxuries of a proper hotel. 

Nine Boxes

Lofted Box oozes that classic Brooklyn aesthetic with exposed iron beams and repurposed furnishings. This lofted apartment even has its own private terrace, and even though the view isn’t one for the ages, the fresh air is a welcome addition. It’s actually part of a boutique hotel, so while it doesn’t feel like someone’s home, there are the services to make up for it – for example, a shuttle that’ll take you anywhere within a mile radius, for free!

Cot / Crib

Located within a historic Greenpoint hotel, this is not your usual homestay. But for those looking to stay in the low-key cool atmosphere of north Brooklyn, with the added convenience of a hotel concierge, it's a fantastic choice. A converted former factory, the hotel's designer has taken the time to create a bespoke interior for each of the rooms within the building. The open-plan living area gives off a welcoming vibe, with its beautiful hardwood floors, elegant mid-century furniture, and compact kitchen. There are antique mirrors lining the wall, specially commissioned artworks, and old factory finds that make the room feel more like someone's home than a hotel room. The cosy master bedroom is coated in warm blues that will lull you into a deep sleep in no time. If you want to branch out, you're just an eight-minute walk from the nearest Metro station and can be in lower Manhattan within twenty-five minutes, while the Greenpoint ferry terminal is also close by for the more scenic East River option.

The Azure Box

This duplex apartment sits within a boutique hotel, giving you loft-style independence with the option of swanky communal lounges and a 24/7 concierge to organise restaurant bookings, taxis and local recommendations. Based in Greenpoint, the local area is awash with trendy bars and restaurants with achingly cool Williamsburg just next door. This part of Brooklyn boasts some of the best views of the Manhattan skyline too. In the double-height living room, splashes of orange contrast with midnight-blue walls. Huge, warehouse-style windows are just above living height so there’s a sense of privacy even as the curtains are open and the natural light streams in. It’s a big space with loads of lounging room, and three different desk spaces should you need to get some work done. Both bedrooms are tucked up on the mezzanine level, up a spiral staircase and feature sprawling king-size beds.

Window Box

Housed with a boutique hotel, guests can enjoy the best of both worlds here – hotel luxury and self-catered apartment independence. Inside the apartment itself, you’ve got an eclectic medley of styles, from the exposed pipework painted fire engine red to cute midnight-blue cabinets on hardwood floors. The living room has a wall of windows letting in lots of natural light and is a big space (a bonus in New York) and there's a little side terrace set with a table and chairs for a tipple in the evening. Cook in your own kitchen or enjoy the freshly brewed coffee of the hotel – staying here means you can pick and choose to your heart's content. The area,  Greenpoint, is located just north of bustling Williamsburg, offering a peaceful, residential retreat with some of that trendy bar, restaurant and art scene creeping into the streets. And we'll let you in on a secret; some of the best views of the iconic Manhattan skyline can be seen from this corner of New York, and this building’s rooftop terrace takes it all in. 

Boxed Art

Pets Allowed

Pets

Nestled in one of New York City's most desirable neighbourhoods, this stylish pet-friendly apartment makes a great base for professionals or friends looking to immerse themselves in local life. You'll have all the basics here and the compact kitchen is well-equipped for rustling up light meals or evening snacks. Even better, you'll find some of NYC's best restaurants right on your doorstep, so you're never far from whatever you're craving. Central Park is less than twenty minutes away on foot, while nearby subway stations can help you traverse the city with ease.

The Mid-Century Muse

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.

Honey Mustard

In a little-trafficked (by Manhattan standards) corner of the Upper East Side, Heirloom provides you with a haven to retreat, away from the bustle normally associated with the city. That calm feeling has clearly influenced the interior design as well, with certain nods to Scandinavia, and nice variety of houseplants. The kitchen’s a draw too, with a good set of appliances (although no food is provided). It’s set over two floors, with a terrace split over two levels as well, so even if you decide to use the futon, it feels like it’s big enough.


Heirloom

Hot Tub

Tucked away in the Upper East Side, this cosy apartment lends itself well to a big city stay. Space is limited, but for a work trip or a weekend getaway it's got a great location, and you can even bring a furry friend for a fee. The compact kitchen lets you rustle up snacks or small meals, while the surrounding restaurants and cafes offer everything from classic bagels and cronuts to Michelin-starred cuisine. In one direction you'll find Central Park, with the scenic East River in the other. To top it all off, nearby subway stations make commuting or sightseeing a breeze.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Welcome Hamper

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. This is a 300-square foot walk-up, but so long as you don't intend to do some serious cooking or massively spread out, this cosy apartment will do just the trick. 


The Itty-Bitty

The Tangerine is a small but newly renovated studio in the Upper East Side. Its decor is simple yet sophisticated and there's a sense of charm that many other corporate style apartments don't have. And despite its size, it's quite well-appointed with a rainfall shower and separate desk space. 



The Tangerine

Cafetiere

Located on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, this bright studio apartment is the perfect base for a couple or solo traveller looking for a comfortable, central stay in New York City. 

Pops of deep blue create an instantly calm welcome with wood floors and white walls adding to the serene vibe of this city pad. We love the leafy houseplants and the exposed brick wall by the desk, perfect for catching up on work using the home’s high-speed wi-fi. We suggest less work and more play here, however with countless sights waiting to be discovered right on your front step.

The living room feels lived in like a comfy blanket with its distressed rug and board games for quiet evenings in.

The Wizards of Central Park

In the heart of New York's prestigious Upper East Side, this functional apartment serves as a homely base for families or two couples. Due to its small size, the living area feels a little cluttered – the same is true of the bedrooms, which don't offer much space beyond the bed. We also think the home doesn't get as much sunlight as we would like. That said, you have everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the location is fantastic – you're just a short walk from the East River and Central Park, and there are plenty of eateries and cafes close by.

The Leading Edge

In the heart of the Upper East Side, this pocket-sized apartment makes a cosy base for professionals and couples. It's not the biggest – especially the second bedroom – but the bold designs make the most of the compact space.

New York Spirit

The New Manhattan

Stay in prime Midtown with this freshly renovated home. It’s just under twenty minutes on foot to one of New York’s most famous landmarks, the Empire State Building, or Madame Tussauds New York is just over a five-minute stroll. Fashionistas, on the other hand, can head to the Garment District, home to the biggest concentration of fashion designers and manufacturers in the USA – just a four-minute wander. After all that sightseeing, you’ll need somewhere super comfy to chill out in – this apartment is perfect. We love the luxurious touches such as velvet curtains and the marble countertops, as well as the artworks dotted around this abode. If you're in the Big Apple on business, you’ll be glad to know there are desks here too. Stylish and practical – this apartment offers the best of both worlds.
