The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Midtown
This is the iconic New York that so many visitors imagine before they visit—spectacular skyscrapers like the Chrysler Building and Empire State Building, iconic public buildings like Grand Central Terminal and the New York Public Library, and the non-stop hustle and bustle of the city streets. Fifth Avenue is a shopper's heaven where you can find every kind of store imaginable, with fashion brands ranging from the affordable to the ultra-fancy. Visit the Rockefeller Center to experience towering Art Deco grandeur, and foodies will love the busy restaurants that stay open late in Koreatown. After dark, Midtown calms down a bit, but at any time of day or night it still feels 100% New York.
How to get there

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Admittedly it is just another high end shopping street but it is still great to window shop. I am a die hard non shopper but window shopping can be interesting and people watching on these streets is a lot of fun.
Best for me was remembering to look up and see the ultra modern glass and metal structures towering above and in between the beautiful older buildings, with so much character and detail.
Cartier did not have a jewel in sight but beautiful window displays and Trump Tower was awash with people taking selfies!! Every shop had a very smartly dressed bouncer inside the door and the architecture was far more interesting than the high end fashion window displays.
A lovely way for a non shopper to spend an afternoon and I suspect a shopper would enjoy it even more than that.

It's one of the city's iconic streets. It is full of immense shops of the most prestigious brands in the world with windows so well set up that they look like works of art. During the day it is very busy, while in the evening it is quieter and more suitable for a relaxing walk

You can’t go to New York without going up the famous Fifth Avenue, which starts from Washington Park, where there are seven sorts of Arc de Triomphe that is reminiscent of Paris. Fifth Avenue is by far the most upscale avenue in New York. The part along Central Park, from 85th Street, houses the most expensive buildings. In fact, you will pass through Millionaires’ Row, where all the world’s great fortunes have a “modest” foothold.

A true symbol of the city, New York's Fifth Avenue is the most important artery in Manhattan and home to all the major attractions of the Big Apple. Here are elegant buildings overlooking Central Park. Historic residences and museums, prestigious and luxury shops, Trump Tower, Saint Patrick's Cathedral, Rockfeller Center, a symbol of wealthy New York.

Every time I walk down 5th Avenue, there's something new to see. This visit I was lucky enough to see the Fifth Avenue Blooms presentation of colorful floral sculpture offerings.
The new Tiffany's looks splendid while St. Patrick's and Atlas still hold regal watch over passers by.
A must do for anyone visiting. You'll be hooked, same as I was!

Most friendly and helpful receptionist and staff ever, I had lovely and great first impression of the hotel. Everything about the hotel was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service in where we had dinner. Food was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient. This was truly a place where you didn't need to leave the hotel.

If you could walk down only one street in Manhattan, Fifth Avenue is arguably the most interesting one you will find especially between 34th and 59th Street. Beginning at 34th Street, you will find the Empire State Building. As you walk north, you will pass by or near the New York Public Library and Bryant Park, Grand Central Station and the Chrysler Building, St Patrick's Cathedral, Rockefeller Center and end at Central Park. Fifth Avenue is also New York's shopping street where you will find all the high-end retailers such as Sak's Fifth Avenue, Tiffany's and Gucci to name just a few.

One of the most famous shopping streets in the world. The parallel street Madison is packed with even more luxury stores. We came to 5th for the newly opened SKIMS store by Kim Kardashian. Lots to see along the street like St Peter’s cathedral, Rockerfeller Centre, Empire State building, NY Library

You really feel like you've been down this road before, you feel like you're in a movie. Fifth Street is a symbol of New York and worth a visit, you will be amazed by the grandeur of the shops of the most famous brands. You will feel Haudrey Hepburn!

How cold is it in New York from November 28 to 10 December
Written 20 May 2018
That can be debatable with the weather the way it has been over the last few years. Last year is was really cold but between 2015-2016 it was in the 50's. Always bring a winter coat with you when visiting New York this time of year and then check the weather reports before you leave on the trip. You may want to pack a fall coat and sweaters as well.

Hola, lo que he leído me lleva a que una de las visitas imperdibles es APPLE STORE. Me gustaría conocer comentarios acerca de compras realizadas en esta tienda. ejplo. conviene comprar en ella o en Best Buy, B&H, ú otras tiendas de electronicos que también venden productos Apple.? Los electronicos comprados en NY tienen mismo valor que los que se compran en Miami?. Gracias.

Hola Antonio, el Apple Store de la 5ta. Av. merece una visita para conocer el mundo Mac en su totalidad. De todas formas, lograr comprar algo es una hazaña por la cantidad de gente, inimaginable aún a las 23 hs, y después pagar. En cuanto a precios, depende el producto que busques, a veces es más barato en otros locales. Ej: en jersey gardens no hay mucha variedad pero hace 6 meses compré un iPhone 6s mucho más barato y original. Es fácil darte cuenta si es trucho. Que tengas suerte en tu viaje. Saludos.

Ciao a tutti, mi consigliate di passeggiare sulla 5th Avenue di giorno o di notte? Quale sono le differenze? i negozi, le gente, gli orari...

Ciao Stefano G., la "quinta" è uno degli ombelichi del mondo ed in quanto tale merita di essere vista fin dal pomeriggio (diciamo dalle 17 in poi), fino alla mezzanotte. Il tramondo la inonda di una luce particolare che, da sola, fa già attrazione.
le grandi case di moda e di trand sono tutte presenti e, come vedrai, affascinanti. Valuta anche che NY offre mille attrazioni e quartieri che - per motivi diversi - meritano soste per lo shopping. E' certo che un vestito da regalare alla moglie, se acquistato nella "quinta", ha un suo fascino particolare che dura nel tempo. Buon divertimento. Andrea N.

Marriott Marquis es un muy buen hotel. No es muy caro para Nueva York. Usted puede ir a todos los sitios que usted ha mencionado desde este hotel.
De nada.
