What Andaz 5th Avenue actually is
Andaz 5th Avenue sits directly across from the New York Public Library's main branch and Bryant Park, in a converted building at 41st Street. Tony Chi designed the interiors with an emphasis on loft proportions — high ceilings, oak floors, large windows and open-plan bathrooms.
The Andaz format does away with a conventional front desk in favour of hosts with tablets, and rooms are among the largest in the immediate area. The location is one of the best in Midtown for walking: the library and park are opposite, Grand Central is five minutes east, and Times Square is five minutes west.

Where it sits
The corridor of Park and Madison Avenues, where corporate New York keeps its address book. Grand Central sits at its heart, which makes Midtown East one of the easiest places in the city to sleep if you plan to ride trains rather than hail cabs.
