Archer Hotel New York, an industrial‑chic boutique hotel in midtown Manhattan, welcomes guests with 180 luxe, intimate guest rooms, the buzzy first‑floor AKB hotel bar and the 22nd‑floor Spyglass Rooftop Bar.

The AAA Four Diamond, Forbes Recommended hotel is part of the award‑winning Archer Hotel collection — chock‑full of thoughtful touches and local discoveries, consistently ranking at the top of trusted review sites.

The hotel is located on 38th Street between 5th and 6th Avenues — two blocks from the 42nd Street‑Bryant Park and four blocks from the 34th Street‑Herald Square subway stations, and a half‑block from 5th and 6th Street bus stops.

Lodge Works is a privately held hotel development and management company. While our name isn’t on the hotels themselves, our extraordinary culture is at the heart of our 18 hotels — including our award‑winning Archer Hotel boutique collection and our portfolio of other great brands with familiar names, such as Hyatt Place, Hyatt House, Aloft, Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton Inn.

We’re thrilled to be considered industry innovators with a rich 35+ year history. Yet, what we are most proud of is the strong family culture we have developed and maintained while growing to 950+ employees nationwide. At Lodge Works, hospitality is more than just the industry in which we work; it defines everything we do. Maybe it’s because we’re grounded in Midwestern hospitality (our home office is in Wichita, Kansas, while our hotels are scattered across the U.S.).

Or maybe it’s because we actively work to make hospitality (with each other, our guests, our clients and partners) the foundation upon which everything is built.
