“Times Square's clubby calm retreat”
Casablanca Hotel by Library Hotel Collection is a 1996 charmer literally off Times Square and Broadway — walkable to theatres and MoMA yet tucked just enough to stay tranquil. Generous, elegant-for-NYC rooms, delicious generous breakfasts, a well-stocked second-floor lounge and Rick's Cafe's 24/7 snacks make it many guests' only New York choice; staff are courteous at all hours, doormen give directions, decades-long regulars return. Two off-notes: one guest's deposit still wasn't returned after two weeks, and another calls it a sensible one-night Times Square option rather than true luxury.
