Where to Stay When Visiting KKR (New York)
KKR's headquarters is in Hudson Yards. Pick the right district — and the right airport. In New York, the airport choice quietly decides the trip.
KKR is a global investment firm (private equity, credit, and infrastructure), headquartered at 30 Hudson Yards, New York, NY 10001. That's Hudson Yards and Manhattan West — the far-west-side district around the 7-train terminus, where BlackRock, Pfizer, and KKR anchor new towers with hotels built into the development.
“KKR is high up in 30 Hudson Yards. Stay in the district and the elevator is a longer trip than the commute.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
Which airport — and how far?
Hudson Yards sits on the far west side, so Newark (EWR) and LaGuardia (LGA) are about the same — roughly 30 minutes each, with EWR often a touch easier off the West Side Highway. JFK is about 50 minutes. For most trips here, EWR or LGA.
Where should you stay near KKR?
Stay in Hudson Yards or Midtown West near KKR — there are hotels in the development itself and more a short walk east. It's its own pocket on the far west side, well served by the 7 train and a quick hop to Penn Station.

The standard
KKR is a New York HQ where two choices decide the trip: the district and the airport. Book near the office in the Hudson Yards / Midtown West area, fly LGA / EWR, and let the subway — not a car — carry the rest.
