Planning a trip to NYC for the holidays? Follow @theadeolacrown for more Christmas in New York Experience. You’re going to love this one! Every December, my DMs fill up with the same question: “Adeola, where should I stay so I can see ALL the Christmas attractions without getting stuck in holiday traffic?” So I made this guide just for you. New York City is pure magic in December, the Rockefeller Tree is glowing, Fifth Avenue is sparkling, Saks is putting on a full light show, and Bryant Park Winter Village feels like a real-life snow globe. But the truth? The city gets crowded, and where you stay can make or break your holiday experience. These are the best neighborhoods to stay in during the holidays in NYC if you want easy access to: ✨ Rockefeller Center ✨ Bryant Park Winter Village ✨ Radio City Christmas Spectacular ✨ Times Square ✨ Fifth Avenue holiday windows ✨ Central Park ice skating ✨ Columbus Circle Holiday Market Midtown, Bryant Park, Columbus Circle, Times Square, and the Upper West Side give you the closest walking distance to all the iconic Christmas spots and if you’re navigating by train (highly recommend!), stick to the B/D/F/M, 1/2/3, N/Q/R/W, and A/C lines for quick rides across Manhattan. Bonus tip: Skip the Ubers! Holiday traffic will have you stuck for 45 minutes going five blocks. The subway and walking will save you time and give you the real NYC experience. If you’re spending Christmas in New York, SAVE this post to help you plan your trip and share it with someone visiting this December. Tag your crew & hit save and share!
