One of our number one questions is where to stay. NYC offers many great places. We’d love to hear where you like to stay, and we’ve thrown in some of our fav’s as well.

Manhattan and Queens both have many advantages. The Billie Jean King National Tennis Center is located in Queens. So, should you choose to stay in a hotel in Queens you will be mere 10 minute shuttle ride or a few subway stops away from the matches. There are great ethnic neighborhoods, however, there is limited night life and arts out in Queens. 

On the other hand, Manhattan hotels are a slightly longer distance from the tennis, usually about 30 minutes. However, staying in downtown NYC gives you plenty of opportunity to experience the arts, theatre and night-life when not watching tennis. Hotels that are located in Midtown Manhattan are just a few blocks from Times Square, Central Park, MOMA (Modern Museum of Art), Chelsea Piers and most top rated restaurants. Not to mention fabulous shopping!

Times Square is also a popular place to stay. Keep in mind that Times Square is the heart of the Big Apple and is proof that the city never sleeps. This area has a lot of traffic – both auto and pedestrian. Most of the theatres are located here as is the number 7 subway which takes you direct to the US Open in aout 25 – 30 mins.
