Hotel Indigo Lower East Side New York, an IHG Hotel

Welcome to my completely unorganized but oh-so-helpful map of New York City! An absolute smorgasbord of my own travels and research, suggestions from friends and strangers, and many treasures found along the way, this is where I compile all things NYC for my future trips and yours. Things I particularly love that you’ll find a lot of: ☕️ Coffee shops & bakeries 🌮 Local cuisine 🏛️ Museums of all kinds 🌳 Gardens & parks 🛏️ Boutique hotels 🍕 Small regional chains with good reputations All my guides in this category are $5 per 100 places included, but since I add to these constantly, you can lock down the lowest price today and gain a lifetime access!

Manhattan may not spring to mind when you’re daydreaming about devouring a beach read poolside, but you may wish you’d considered it if you’re visiting in the summer months. While there are, of course, endless things to eat, drink, and do in New York City, there’s nothing wrong with (and in fact, so many things right about) grabbing some pool time in the city that never sleeps. Here, some of our favorite hotels with pools in NYC, for cooling down in between museum hopping and happy hour.
