What Casablanca Hotel actually is

The Casablanca commits fully to its theme — hand-painted tiles, wrought iron, a second-floor lounge called Rick's Café — and somehow makes it work rather than embarrassing. It sits on West 43rd Street, a few steps from Times Square but on a much calmer block.

What actually distinguishes it is the service and the inclusions: breakfast, all-day coffee and tea, and an evening wine and cheese reception are all part of the rate. For a couple staying several nights in the theatre district that is a meaningful saving, and the hotel has one of the strongest reputations in Midtown for looking after guests.

  • 01 Breakfast, all-day refreshments and evening wine included
  • 02 Rick's Café lounge with a working fireplace

Questions people ask about Casablanca Hotel

What exactly is included?

Continental breakfast, coffee and tea throughout the day, and an evening wine and cheese reception, all in Rick's Café on the second floor.

West 43rd between Sixth and Broadway is calmer than the avenues, and the hotel is small. It is among the quieter theatre district options.
