Which airport — and how far?
New York has three. LaGuardia (LGA) is about 30 minutes to Midtown; Newark (EWR) runs about 35 minutes with a wide schedule; JFK is roughly 45–50 minutes but connects to the E subway via the AirTrain. For a Nasdaq visit, LaGuardia or Newark are the practical picks; otherwise JFK and a car or the AirTrain-plus-subway.
Where should you stay near Nasdaq?
Stay near Times Square or Bryant Park, within walking distance of 4 Times Square. The 42nd Street corridor sits on top of the subway, so a Midtown hotel puts you at the door on foot and on the train to anywhere else. Skip the rental — Manhattan is a walk-and-subway trip.

How do these hotels score on published commitments?
The brands behind these hotels have been scored by our Index Desk on what they publish as a standard — desk and lighting, connectivity, breakfast and check-in commitments — not on what any single property delivered on any given night. A brand score is the promise; the stay is the delivery, and the gap between them is the whole point of the Index.
- Hilton Garden Inn New York Times Square Central — Hilton Garden Inn scores 60/100 on The Sales-Ready Index. Desk standard, meeting rooms brand-standard, and Hilton's app (checkout, folio, room selection) carries the admin dimension.
What we read to score Hilton Garden Inn

Scored on published commitments only, from primary sources, as of 2026-07. A 'No' means no documented public commitment was found — never a finding that a property fails to deliver. Any scored brand holds a free right of reply under our published governance — corrections verified within 7 days. A partnership buys reach, never a rating.
