Click to book The Unlikely Friend now: from £225 per night Set in a traditional Brooklyn brownstone, The Unlikely Friend is a recently remodelled, ground floor home with a unique balance of modern luxuries, traditional architectural features and unique artwork. Your hosts are not only talented artists themselves, they're also a delight to stay with, making sure you have everything you need for a relaxing trip. The nearest subway station is a two-minute walk away, but even better is the well-kept garden in the back, ideal for long summer days. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom

Click to book Miss Sophistication now: from £169 per night Sitting in a beautiful brownstone, this Clinton Hill apartment is a sophisticated home in a cultural part of Brooklyn. It's in good shape with large windows welcoming lots of light and an open-concept kitchen perfect for socialising and cooking simultaneously. It's not the most luxurious home on our books, but comfortable and inviting for mature couples or a group of friends. Sleeps up to 4 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom

Click to book Taking Stock now: from £288 per night Whether you're in town for business or pleasure, this light and bright studio apartment is the perfect base for exploring New York City. Simply styled with plush, neutral-coloured furniture, hardwood floors and glossy marble countertops, the vibe here is minimal and chic. The smart layout makes the apartment feel roomy and open – there's even a desk for those days when you want to work from home. Outside, the buzzing Financial District, home to the New York Stock Exchange, is all yours to explore. Stroll down to The Battery and catch a ferry to the Statue of Liberty (or just admire the views from the waterfront park), grab dinner at one of the area's gourmet restaurants, dip into a dive bar on Stone Street or pay your respects at the 9/11 Memorial and Museum, all just a short stroll away. With Fulton Street station only a few metres away, getting around the city is a breeze. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom

Click to book Seasons in the City now: from £418 per night This pristine, stylish flat entices you in with abstract art and mid-century style furniture, and before you know it, you've made it your home-from-home. The small but well-equipped kitchen makes knocking up a delicious meal a breeze, while the inviting sofa is a great place to kick back at the end of a long day. With a prime location in Battery Park, you're perfectly positioned to explore nearby attractions such as the Statue of Liberty or the Brooklyn Bridge at your leisure. In the evening, strike out into the Manhattan night to sink a drink or two in sawdust-covered dive bars or frequent glamorous late-night parties. If you're here for work rather than pleasure, or a bit of both, then make use of the in-building business centre, co-working space and lounge with its super-fast wi-fi. To get a total sense of place, take to the roof terrace to soak up some sun on the loungers, take a dip in the rooftop pool or sip a coffee at the numerous tables and absorb the dramatic sights and atmospheric sounds of a truly cosmopolitan city. Sleeps up to 4 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom

Click to book Talkin' New York now: from £184 per night Stylish, inviting and ideally located near The Battery, this New York City studio is as hip as they come. The bright white walls are the perfect canvas for playful pops of colour – we love the orange chairs and gold accents that give the home a playful character – and it’s got everything you need to feel right at home. This includes a snazzy kitchenette for whipping up meals when you’re not out sampling the city’s world-famous dining scene. Your building’s amenities are pretty impressive too. There’s a generously sized outdoor pool, sundeck with arresting city views and a sleek co-working space – perfect if you’re visiting on business. When you’re ready to head out and explore, you’re a two-minute mosey from Bowling Green Subway Station connecting you to the heart of the Big Apple where world-class eateries, shops and watering holes await. Should you want to stay local or have a quiet afternoon away from the hubbub, The Battery's leafy green –with its iconic vistas of the Statue of Liberty – is just a two-minute walk across the street. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
