Now that Halloween is over and it’s officially the start of the holiday season, it’s time to think about New Year’s Eve plans. Looking to get out of the house but don’t want to be surrounded by crowds? Check out some of the events going on at LUMA Hotel Times Square.
LUMA Hotel is located in the perfect location in Times Square. It’s not in the middle of all the hustle and bustle, but close enough if you want to be part of it.
Two weeks ago I attended the New Year’s Eve Experience event at LUMA Hotel Times Square and got to see what it would be like to stay in one of the Ball Drop View rooms and suites on New Year’s Eve.
Ring in 2020 from the comfort of your hotel room. When you book a Ball Drop View room or suite you can still experience the ball drop at midnight in person without dealing with the crowds on the street. The view of the ball is a rear view so you can’t see the events happening on the street, but you can enjoy those moments on TV.
With two different packages offered, your night can’t go wrong. Enjoy a full-course meal in the hotel restaurant, Ortzi, or have a bottle of Champagne and a platter of treats sent right to your door. No matter what package you choose, expect a visit from Alina, the hotel’s butler robot, with some NYE goodies.
Looking for more of a party? Attend the NYE Party at Ortzi Bar/Lounge. Enjoy an open bar, a DJ, a Champagne toast at midnight and a live stream of the ball drop.
Whether you are looking for a relaxing night or to party, LUMA Hotel Times Square has you covered.

Nov 21, 2024Immerse in an Invigorating Thermal Journey at Scandinave Spa Whistler
The glittering green pines and burst of jasmine lake beyond almost made me forget about the aches in my legs that slowly developed after the promised hour-long hike ran into the third hour. And, oh, there were my hips, showing up to remind me I was no longer in my 20s. I didn’t mind, though, because the vision that surrounded me during our guided walk through Garibaldi Park to Cheakamus Lake in Whistler, British Columbia, with Mountain Skills Academy and Adventures proved worthy of a thousand postcards.
