Why Hotel Giraffe is a perfect fit for your family

When travelling with the family, you want to plan a trip that is fun and easy for everyone!  And since you already know what do to when visiting NYC with your family, we want to help you decide where to stay.  At Hotel Giraffe, you’ll find a multitude of features to make family travel a pleasure, which is why we won the Citysearch Best of New York ‘Best Family Friendly Hotel award!

It’s oh so Suite! Hotel Giraffe has spacious suites that feature a King Size Bed in the bedroom and a Full Size Pull-Out-Sofa in the living room, which allows parents a bit of privacy after a long day!  The suites are also affordable as they are priced at what many NYC hotels charge for a standard room.  We also offer  Balcony Guestrooms with 2 Queen beds, another great option for a family of four.   *For larger families (up to 7) #TipsForTravelers recommends combining a 1 bedroom Balcony Suite with a Balcony Double to make a 2 bedroom, 2 bath suite.

All the Added Value.  Hotel Giraffe’s Grand Lobby offers 24 hour refreshments, which offers incredible savings for a family of 4.  In addition, every guest has access to a hearty continental style breakfast featuring many child-friendly choices such as various cereals, yogurts, oatmeal, toast and bagels with peanut butter and jellies.  And even though the evening wine receptions are perfect for parents; the crackers, cheese, vegetables with dip and other snacks offer a variety of options for children, including our delicious cookies!

You don’t have to carry-on a crib.  At Hotel Giraffe, cribs are available upon request free of charge, saving parents the hassle of travelling with their portable cribs.

Kids go ‘mad’ for NoMad. Families who stay with us are within walking distance of the Museum of Math, Kips Bay Movie Theater, which offer fun for the entire family. And with Madison Square Park just one block away featuring a children’s playground, there’s always a place to run off some steam.

Dining is a Family Affair. Bread & Tulips, the rustic Italian restaurant located in Hotel Giraffe not only offers authentic Italian cuisine for parents, but a fun filled children’s menu including pizza and spaghetti with meatballs.  And with family friendly restaurants such as Shake Shack, Big Daddy’s Diner, Schnipper’s, Hill Country  and Hillstone all conveniently located in NoMad, you don’t have to venture far to experience a variety of cuisines.

You can add a Sweet Treat! Upgrade your stay with chocolate chip cookies and a carafe of refreshing milk. It’s the perfect bedtime treat for adults and children alike!

It’ll be your ‘Home Away from Home.’ While some boutique hotels are trendy in a way that would make multi-generational family trips uncomfortable, our style is softly contemporary and appeals to young parents while also making children and grandparents feel comfortable and at home.

You can #ShowOffYourSelfie. Hotel Giraffe’s Rooftop Garden is home to Jesse the Giraffe, who strikes a pose and offers the perfect photo op.  The garden is available throughout the day to guests and is a welcoming space for children (and adults!) who want to stretch their legs.
