Check You Out, Plum Guide home in New York

Click to book Check You Out now: from £15.31 per night With its ornate old buildings, laidback atmosphere, and endless riverside strolling spots, it's easy to see why people have been moving to this area since the eighteenth century. And while Murray Hill has retained its charm over the years, the accommodation options have thankfully evolved since then. Among the traditional townhouses, you'll now find swanky high-rises like this one, which offers comfort, convenience, and a totally indulgent swimming pool. We can just picture tucking into a bagel on the private balcony or relaxing with a magazine in the sumptuous seating area. The plush sofa gives us Russian Blue cat vibes and you can totally pretend you're living the penthouse dream from the sunny rooftop terrace with its views of the NYC skyline. Back in your pad, woven rugs, unique checkerboard flooring and a sunshine yellow throw, transform those all white rooms into an inviting home. End the day with a lovingly cooked meal and a drink as the sun sets on another fabulous day in New York. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 2 Bathrooms

Click to book The Naked City now: from £292 per night Right in the pulsing heart of this most vibrant of cities, this modern and comfortable apartment is the perfect base. Midtown East is a central Manhattan neighbourhood with many iconic attractions just feet from your door: the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings, the Rockefeller Center and the Grand Central Market. But you’re also next to the East River and the boutiques and nightlife of this retail and commercial hub. Inside, it's a studio space that's been thoughtfully put together as a home away from home. With a cool, contemporary look and stylish furniture, it's small but perfectly formed – with everything from modern art on the walls to a practical kitchen area and a dining space for two.

Belle Vue, Plum Guide home in New York

Click to book Belle Vue now: from £329 per night 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. Sleeps up to 4 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
