Where to Stay When Visiting Omnicom (New York)

By Rachel Julian, Editor-in-Chief · · 5 min read

Omnicom's headquarters is in Midtown Manhattan, on Park Avenue. Pick the right district — and the right airport. In New York, the airport choice quietly decides the trip.

Direct answer: Visiting Omnicom Group's New York HQ (280 Park Ave): stay in the Midtown Manhattan area near the office. Stay in Midtown near Omnicom — the district is compact and the subway covers the rest, so most Midtown business hotels put you within a short walk or ride of the office. In Manhattan you don't thread the exact block; you pick the right neighborhood, and this is it. Three airports serve New York. LaGuardia (LGA) in Queens is the closest to Midtown — about 25 minutes and the domestic default. Newark (EWR) is roughly 35 minutes and often has the best fares. JFK, about 50 minutes southeast, carries the international routes. For a Midtown meeting, LGA is the short hop.

Omnicom Group is a global advertising and marketing-communications holding company, headquartered at 280 Park Ave, New York, NY 10017. That's Midtown Manhattan — the Grand Central and Park Avenue core out to Sixth Avenue and Times Square, the densest business district in the country, where a hotel and a dozen headquarters can sit within a few subway stops.
