Quick Verdict: InterContinental New York Times Square vs Baccarat Hotel and Residences New York

When InterContinental New York Times Square wins: choose the InterContinental if you want to be in the thick of the Theater District, need lots of rooms or meeting/event space (Gotham Ballroom and multiple meeting rooms), or prefer a hotel with direct subway access at the property.

When Baccarat wins: pick Baccarat Hotel and Residences if you want a smaller, design-led 5-star stay close to MoMA and Fifth Avenue, with an on-site full-service spa and an indoor pool.

Bottom line: both are central Manhattan luxury hotels; go InterContinental for scale, events and theater convenience, and Baccarat for boutique-style luxury, spa and design focus.

Location: Times Square vs Midtown Fifth Avenue

InterContinental New York Times Square – Location

InterContinental sits on West 44th Street in the Theater District, very close to Broadway and Times Square.

  • About 0.1 miles from Times Square; a roughly 4–5 minute walk to Broadway theatres
  • Subway entrance at the property with direct access to the A, C and E lines
  • Good for pre- or post-show dinners and quick access to midtown attractions

Choose InterContinental for the theater-focused Midtown location and immediate public-transit access.

Baccarat Hotel and Residences New York – Location

Baccarat is on West 53rd Street near Fifth Avenue and MoMA, placing it closer to museum and shopping corridors.

  • Steps from the Museum of Modern Art and within a short walk of Rockefeller Center and Fifth Avenue
  • Central Midtown location that’s quieter than Times Square but still walkable to major sights
  • Preferred access for guests planning museum visits or Fifth Avenue shopping

Choose Baccarat to be near MoMA and Fifth Avenue shopping in a more museum/shopping‑oriented midtown spot.

Rooms: scale, style and tech

InterContinental New York Times Square – Rooms

InterContinental offers a large variety of room types and suites across 36 floors focused on practical luxury for travelers and families.

  • 607 total guest rooms including 29 suites and a 2,700-sq-ft duplex penthouse
  • Room types include Classic Room, Premium Room and Junior Suites with spa-inspired bathrooms and rain showers
  • Rooms are aimed at business and leisure travelers who need space, connectivity and consistent standards

InterContinental is best if you want many room choices, larger inventory and family-friendly options.

Baccarat Hotel and Residences New York – Rooms

Baccarat’s 114 rooms emphasize design, with tablet computers and designer toiletries listed in the supplier facts.

  • 114 guestrooms with room names such as Double room King bed - Atelier, Classic Suite and Suite (The Prestige Suite)
  • Rooms feature tablet computers and LCD TVs; private bathrooms with bathtubs or showers and bathrobes
  • Smaller inventory and design focus give a boutique, personalized feel

Baccarat is best if you prefer a smaller, design-forward property with bespoke touches in the rooms.

Dining & drinks: one main venue vs a signature salon

InterContinental New York Times Square – Dining & drinks

InterContinental’s primary food-and-drink outlet is The Stinger Cocktail Bar & Kitchen, a lobby-level American restaurant and bar.

  • The Stinger serves buffet breakfast (for a surcharge), lunch and dinner and has a separate street entrance
  • In-room dining available daily from 6:30 AM to 10:45 PM
  • Restaurant concept led by chef Todd English with a smart-casual dress code

InterContinental suits travelers who want a single, reliable on-site dining option with extended hours near Broadway.

Baccarat Hotel and Residences New York – Dining & drinks

Baccarat’s dining centers on Grand Salon, a French-influenced restaurant, plus a bar/lounge and room service.

  • Grand Salon specializes in French cuisine; cooked-to-order breakfast available 7:00 AM–11:00 AM for a fee
  • One restaurant and one bar/lounge listed in the supplier facts
  • Room service and a refined dining atmosphere aimed at intimate meals rather than high‑capacity events

Baccarat fits travelers seeking a refined dining environment and quieter meals near Fifth Avenue.

Pools & signature amenity

InterContinental New York Times Square – Pools & signature amenity

InterContinental does not have an on-site swimming pool; the hotel’s features focus on location and event space instead.

  • No on-site swimming pool
  • Fitness center open 24 hours on the third floor
  • Guests should plan off-site pool options or city activities rather than on-property swimming

If pool access matters, InterContinental is not the right choice.

Baccarat Hotel and Residences New York – Pools & signature amenity

Baccarat lists an indoor pool and recreational amenities among its highlights.

  • Indoor pool available on-site (supplier listing)
  • Full-service spa with massages and facials; sauna and steam/fitness facilities listed
  • Spa treatments require reservations and are offered by appointment

Baccarat is the pick for travelers who want on-site pool and spa facilities in Midtown.

Wellness & nightlife: gym access vs spa and quiet bars

InterContinental New York Times Square – Wellness & nightlife

InterContinental provides a 24-hour fitness center but no dedicated spa.

  • Fitness center on the third floor with cardio and strength equipment, free weights and no usage fee
  • No dedicated spa facility on-site
  • Evening life centers on The Stinger bar and nearby Theater District nightlife

InterContinental works for fitness-focused travelers who plan city outings for nightlife.

Baccarat Hotel and Residences New York – Wellness & nightlife

Baccarat emphasizes spa and relaxation with a full-service spa and quieter in-house bars.

  • Full-service spa offering massages and facials; reservations required
  • Indoor pool, sauna and steam options listed in supplier facts
  • Bars and lounges are quieter and oriented toward an upscale hotel crowd

Baccarat is the better choice if spa treatments and in-hotel relaxation are priorities.
