ROW NYC Hotel Announces May 2026 Reopening Following Multi-Year Closure

ROW NYC will reopen on May 1, 2026, following a multi-year closure and comprehensive renovation of its 1,300-room property in Times Square.

ROW NYC, located at the corner of 45th Street and Eighth Avenue in New York City, will resume operations on May 1, 2026, after a multi-year closure and full renovation. The 1,300-room hotel will feature redesigned guest rooms, updated public spaces, a new all-day café and bar, a fitness center, and new guest programming.

Guest rooms have been updated with new furnishings, custom millwork, and layouts designed for comfort. Large windows provide views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline.

Public spaces, including the lobby, have been reimagined to support social gatherings and guest engagement throughout the day. The lobby features tiered seating, informal work areas, and various zones for meetings, work, or relaxation.

Percy All Day, a new 90-seat café and bar named for photographer Percy Claude Byron, will open with the hotel in May. The café will offer coffee, pastries, classic dishes, cocktails, beer, and wine, with seating in the café, bar, dining room, and mezzanine, as well as a projector, sound system, and retail area. Additional details about menus, design elements, and operating hours will be announced closer to opening.

ROW NYC will introduce programming initiatives for guests, including neighborhood-driven welcome experiences, wellness amenities, and seasonal cultural events. The hotel will also incorporate community-aligned initiatives and additional on-property programming, with further information to be released in the coming months.

Reservations are now available, with nightly rates starting at $279 and varying by season and room type.
