Location: NoMad vs Times Square

Virgin Hotels New York City – Location

  • Short walk to Macy’s Herald Square and the Empire State Building.
  • Less than 0.6 miles from Penn Station and Madison Square Garden.
  • NoMad neighborhood has restaurants, bars and boutique shopping within easy walking distance.

Choose Virgin if you want a NoMad base with easy transit links and slightly calmer streets than Times Square.

The Times Square EDITION – Location

The Times Square EDITION is located at 701 7th Avenue, essentially steps from Times Square, Rockefeller Center and Broadway theaters.

  • Direct access to Times Square attractions and Broadway theaters.
  • Rockefeller Center, Radio City and Top of the Rock are within a short walk.
  • Highly visible Midtown location for sightseeing and theater nights.

Choose The Times Square EDITION if the main goal is to be in the center of Midtown and the theater district.

Rooms: Chambers & guestrooms

Virgin Hotels New York City – Rooms

Virgin’s inventory is built around 'Chambers' and suites across a 38-story tower, with floor-to-ceiling windows and skyline views.

  • About 460 guest rooms and suites, with several 'Sky' and Grand Suite options.
  • Rooms advertised with City or Empire views and configurations for 2 guests or more.
  • Standard check-in is 3:00 PM; check-out at 12:00 PM (noon).

Virgin is room-forward for skyline views and suite upgrades; good choice for views of the Empire State Building.

  • Room types include Room, Deluxe, Superior, Premier and multiple suite categories (including balcony and penthouse options).
  • Guestrooms feature minibars, flat-screen TVs and designer toiletries.
  • Supplier listing notes 24-hour front desk and express check-in/out options.

The EDITION offers the full range of standard-to-premier rooms and suites typical of a five-star Midtown property.

Dining & drinks: rooftop vs Times Square dining

Virgin Hotels New York City – Dining & drinks

Virgin emphasizes multiple venues: a New American rooftop restaurant, a fine-dining room, an intimate cocktail lounge and a pool bar.

  • Everdene: New American rooftop restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner plus weekend brunch.
  • The Riff Raff Club: 39th-floor cocktail lounge with skyline views and evening hours.
  • El Cielo: Colombian fine dining for dinner-service reservations.

Virgin is a good pick for guests who plan to stay in for varied dining and rooftop cocktails across multiple venues.

The Times Square EDITION – Dining & drinks

The Times Square EDITION offers one main restaurant, 2 bars/lounges and 24-hour room service.

  • Supplier listing highlights one on-site restaurant and two bar/lounges.
  • 24-hour room service is available for in-room dining.
  • The hotel includes concierge services to help with reservations and Broadway plans.

The EDITION works well for central dining with Midtown options nearby if you want to step out to restaurants and theaters.

Pools or the property's signature amenity

Virgin Hotels New York City – Pools or the property's signature amenity

Virgin’s most visible amenity is its seasonal rooftop pool deck and Pool Club, with loungers, cabanas and city views.

  • Seasonal fourth-floor rooftop pool open daily in season from 8:00am–8:00pm.
  • Pool Club bar operates during pool hours; reservations and fees apply for loungers/cabanas after noon.
  • Pool is open to non-hotel guests by reservation (priority to hotel guests).

If pool time and rooftop lounging matter, Virgin is the clear option in this comparison.

The Times Square EDITION – Pools or the property's signature amenity

The Times Square EDITION’s supplier listing highlights nightlife and dining but does not publish pool details.

  • Listing promotes a nightclub and two bars/lounges as on-site recreational options.
  • 24-hour fitness is listed; other outdoor pool amenities are not published in the supplier data.
  • Hotel concierge can confirm any seasonal or off-site pool access if available.

Times Square EDITION is stronger for location and evening entertainment; pool details are not published.

Wellness & nightlife

Virgin Hotels New York City – Wellness & nightlife

Virgin pairs an active nightlife program with a robust spa and 24/7 fitness facilities.

  • Exhale Spa with hammam, snow room, salt room and multiple treatment rooms; spa open daily.
  • 24/7 Technogym-equipped fitness center with classes in a fitness studio.
  • Nightlife includes The Riff Raff Club and Pool Club plus live-music experiences covered by the Destination Fee.

Virgin blends wellness and nightlife — pick it for spa treatments and late-night rooftop drinks.

The Times Square EDITION – Wellness & nightlife

The Times Square EDITION offers nightlife options on-site (nightclub, bars) and 24-hour fitness facilities.

  • On-site nightclub and two bars/lounges for evening entertainment.
  • Fitness facilities are open 24 hours and wheelchair-accessible.
