The all-suite hotel at 151 West 54th Street has carried three names in five years. It operated as The London NYC, reopened in spring 2019 as the Conrad New York Midtown, and in 2024 left Hilton to join Marriott's Luxury Collection - it now trades as The London, a Luxury Collection Hotel, New York. Through every rebrand the structural advantage has held: 562 suites, each a genuine two-room layout (a separate sitting room with a desk and a sofa, plus the bedroom). That suite product at the price point is the asset - an entry-level suite runs roughly $700-$900/night, where competitive all-suite product (the Aman, the Mark) runs $2,000-$3,000. It is the right pick for the business trip where you need a real second room to take early calls without waking the bedroom occupant, and the differentiated product matters for couples travelling together when one partner has a 5am call schedule. The trade-off is that the brand prestige sits below the palace tier: for the client meeting that requires the address, choose the St. Regis or Aman; for the executive trip that just needs the room and the rate, this property delivers more for less.
Premier Suite (the standard two-room layout) or Empire Suite for the corner-tower upgrade.
Book a Premier Suite on a high floor (above 14) for the skyline view. The Vine rooftop bar at 7pm is the after-meeting space; the southwest-corner table has the Times-Square direction view.
Conrad New York Midtown sits within our broader Top 20 Hotels in New York for Business list. It scored an aggregate 9.5/10 across the three editorial criteria, competitive against the field but, on business-specific factors, the angle above is what earned its rank. For the alternatives in the same New York neighbourhood, see Midtown West, 54th Street and adjacent. For a different city entirely, see the related lists below.
Have firm dates? Our editor's advice is to book roughly twelve weeks in advance. The view-facing suites disappear earliest, and high-season inventory moves on a timescale of months, not weeks. Suite-level rooms with private plunge pools or terraces, the ones that earn this rank, are typically the first to sell out.
