Summary edit

Description

The entrance to West 57th Street by Hilton Club, 102 West 57th Street, New York City.

This property was built by Hilton in 2009 as New York City's first-ever dedicated timeshare condominium building. It is sold as the upscale Hilton Club, though owners at the more mass-market Hilton Grand Vacation Club also have limited rights to stay here (I own with Hilton Grand Vacations Club in Las Vegas), being allowed to book at most 45 days ahead rather than the usual 9 months. This being Manhattan, a stay here is not cheap; while my ownership allows me to stay at a high-end one-bedroom suite for one week or a studio for 2 1/2 weeks back in Las Vegas per year, 5-6 days even in the cheapest studio is pushing it here.

By comparison, trying to book a hotel room of similar quality in Midtown Manhattan would have cost me at least $500 per night.

This property is way more upscale than I am used to, though I certainly appreciated the location, on the same block as Carnegie Hall and within walking distance of Central Park, Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, and Times Square.
