Union Square New York
Urban residential — polished but not precious. Midcentury-inspired lobby bar, botanical details, velvet seating. The kind of place where locals actually drink.
Ask for a courtyard-facing room if street noise is a concern — it meaningfully reduces sound
Why It Matters
First new hotel in Union Square in 10+ years when it opened in 2013. The Library of Distilled Spirits bar — with over 1,500 bottles lining floor-to-ceiling shelves accessible by a rolling ladder — is a genuine NYC destination in its own right. AAA Four Diamond rated.
Opened in 2013 as the first new hotel in the Union Square neighborhood in over a decade, Hyatt Union Square sits at the corner of Fourth Avenue and 13th Street — a clean, modern 12-story building that fits the block without shouting. Inside, hardwood floors, Italian furniture, and Nespresso machines give rooms a residential feel rather than a generic chain hotel look. It's an AAA Four Diamond property with 178 rooms and suites, including one flagship suite with 1,335 square feet of private landscaped terrace.
Where You'll Stay
8 room types available
1 King Bed City View
Open-concept room overlooking 13th Street or 4th Avenue. Floor-to-ceiling windows, rain-head shower, minibar service. On the smaller side — this is a 220–250 sq ft NYC room — but the layout is smart and the city views keep it from feeling cramped.
1 King (Hyatt Grand Bed™) · 20 sqm
1 King Bed High Floor
Located on the 10th and 11th floors (230–275 sq ft), with elevated views above 13th Street, 4th Avenue, or the quieter courtyard. Best bang for buck if you want height without paying suite prices.
1 King · 21 sqm
1 King Bed Jr Suite
Corner junior suite at 325 sq ft overlooking the intersection of 13th Street and 4th Avenue. Separate seating area. Two 40" TVs. A solid step up without going full suite.
1 King · 30 sqm
1 King Bed with a Terrace
Open-concept room (230–300 sq ft) with a private, landscaped terrace with outdoor furniture. Rare for NYC at this price point. Views vary depending on floor.
1 King · 21 sqm
1 King Bed with Courtyard Views
Same size as the city-view king (220–275 sq ft) but faces the interior courtyard. Considerably quieter than street-facing rooms — a real plus on weekends when Fourth Avenue picks up.
1 King · 20 sqm
1 King Empyreal Suite
Top-floor, 571 sq ft one-bedroom suite with separate sitting area, sleeper sofa, and 4-person dining table. City views from above. Standard suite under World of Hyatt program terms.

1 King Sanctuary Terrace Suite
The hotel's showpiece: 1,335 sq ft of indoor space plus a massive private landscaped terrace with hedging, outdoor furniture, and open sky. Sleeper sofa, dining table, and 65" TV. A specialty suite — genuinely unlike anything else in the building and rare for NYC at any price.
1 King · 124 sqm
2 Queen Beds
At 300 sq ft, this is one of the roomier standard options and the right pick for families or two friends sharing. Street views of 13th Street or 4th Avenue.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
GrowNYC's adjacent Project Farmhouse offers 3,500 sq ft of sustainable, flexible event space for up to 205 guests. Gallery-style setting with a hydroponic green wall and demo kitchen featuring Gaggenau appliances.
The Library of Distilled Spirits offers encyclopedic volumes of spirit history alongside its 1,500+ bottle collection. Knowledgeable bar staff can guide guests through rare finds and help build a cocktail education. Not a formal class — more like an on-demand spirits tutorial with a drink in hand.
The hotel's website specifically highlights walking distance to the Union Square Dog Run inside Union Square Park — a key perk for guests traveling with dogs.
The famous Union Square Greenmarket is steps from the hotel. It runs year-round (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday) and directly supplies Bowery Road's kitchen. One of NYC's best farmers markets — great for a morning walk before breakfast.
