Location: Times Square energy vs Park Avenue calm

New York Marriott Marquis – Location

New York Marriott Marquis sits directly on Times Square in the Theater District, ideal for Broadway and major Midtown attractions.

  • Steps from Broadway theaters and Times Square; one theater is built into the hotel building.
  • Short walk to Rockefeller Center, Bryant Park and major subway lines (Times Sq-42 St hub).
  • Closest airport connections: LaGuardia ~9.5 miles; easy subway and taxi access across the city.

Choose Marriott Marquis if you want to be in the middle of the Theater District and walking distance to Times Square attractions.

Waldorf Astoria New York – Location

Waldorf Astoria New York is on Park Avenue in Midtown, within easy walking distance of Rockefeller Center and Grand Central.

  • Centrally located in Midtown Manhattan — close to 5th Avenue, Rockefeller Center, and Grand Central Terminal (listed highlights).
  • Quieter Park Avenue setting compared with the immediate Times Square crowds.
  • Preferred airport listed as LaGuardia (LGA).

Choose the Waldorf for a Midtown Park Avenue location that’s close to Midtown landmarks but removed from Times Square’s constant activity.

Rooms: scale and choice vs classic luxury rooms

New York Marriott Marquis – Rooms

Marquis offers a very large room inventory with family and accessible options and several suite levels and view rooms.

  • Roughly 1,900+ guestrooms across many room types including Family Room, Multiple Beds and Times Square View rooms.
  • Accessible room options include Roll-in Shower and Mobility/Hearing Access rooms.
  • M Club Lounge available for eligible Marriott Bonvoy members or paid access.

Marquis is good when you need lots of room types, family configurations, or a Times Square view.

Waldorf Astoria New York – Rooms

Waldorf lists a range of deluxe rooms, junior suites, and multiple one-bedroom and premium suite types.

  • Room types listed include Deluxe king room, Deluxe Room, Junior Suite, One bedroom suite, Premium Suite (2 Bedrooms), and many accessible variants.
  • 375 guestrooms — smaller inventory than Marriott Marquis, more focused on traditional luxury room categories.
  • Rooms include minibars and premium bedding per the supplier listing.

Waldorf is for travelers who want classic luxury room categories and a smaller, more intimate hotel inventory.

Dining & drinks: revolving rooftop and Broadway-facing lounges vs hotel restaurants and room service

New York Marriott Marquis – Dining & drinks

Marquis has multiple on-site dining venues highlighted by The View, a revolving rooftop restaurant and lounge.

  • The View Restaurant, Bar and Lounge spans the 47th/48th floors and is New York City's only revolving restaurant.
  • Revel & Rye and Broadway Lounge provide all-day dining, cocktails, and Times Square or indoor atrium views.
  • Perch Outdoor Terraces provide seasonal outdoor space above the 8th floor.

Pick the Marriott Marquis for unique skyline dining and family-friendly all-day food and drink options.

Waldorf Astoria New York – Dining & drinks

Waldorf lists three restaurants and two bars/lounges with 24-hour room service available.

  • Lex Yard is one named dining venue in the Waldorf listing; the property has three restaurants and two bars/lounges.
  • Full breakfasts are available for a fee and 24-hour room service is offered.
  • On-site dining is consistent with a luxury hotel model focused on service and multiple venues.

Choose Waldorf for classic hotel dining, 24-hour room service and a quieter in-hotel dining atmosphere.

Pools / signature amenity: no pool vs full-service spa

New York Marriott Marquis – Pools / signature amenity

Marriott Marquis does not have an on-site pool; its notable signature amenity is a large 24/7 fitness center.

  • No on-site pool according to multiple booking sites and guest reviews.
  • Marquis Fitness Center: 4,000 sq ft on the 23rd floor, open 24/7, complimentary for guests with Peloton bikes and treadmills.
  • Filtered water stations on every guest floor and in the fitness center; male/female changing rooms available.

If a pool is a must, Marriott Marquis is not appropriate; it focuses on a large fitness facility instead.

Waldorf Astoria New York – Pools / signature amenity

Waldorf Astoria New York lists a full-service spa among its featured amenities.

  • Full-service spa on site with massage treatments (reservations required per supplier listing).
  • Spa services and treatments are offered by reservation; check the hotel for specifics and booking.
  • The hotel also lists fitness facilities and other classic luxury-hotel amenities.

Waldorf is the better choice for travelers who prioritize an on-site spa and in-house wellness treatments.

Wellness & nightlife: 24/7 fitness and Broadway nightlife vs classic bars and quieter evenings

New York Marriott Marquis – Wellness & nightlife

Marriott Marquis combines a large 24/7 fitness center with immediate access to Times Square nightlife and Broadway shows.

  • Marquis Fitness Center is open 24/7 with a range of cardio and strength equipment and complimentary access for guests.
  • Immediate access to Broadway theaters and Times Square entertainment — great for pre/post-show dining and late-night activity.
  • No on-site spa; nearby spas are available off-property.

Marquis suits guests who want active fitness hours and direct access to Manhattan nightlife and theater.

Waldorf Astoria New York – Wellness & nightlife

Waldorf provides a more traditional luxury-hotel evening with in-house bars and quieter Midtown surroundings.

  • Two bars/lounges on site and hotel dining that supports relaxed, service-focused evenings.
  • Full-service spa available by reservation for daytime or evening appointments.
  • Closer proximity to Park Avenue and Midtown business streets makes for quieter night walks than Times Square.

Waldorf works for travelers who prefer quieter, service-led evenings and on-site wellness.
