You’ve completed another trip around the sun and are trying to figure out where to celebrate your birthday. New York has an amalgam of activities, but with so many options, sometimes it’s hard to figure out what to do. Regardless of what your vibe is, we have some ideas. Leave the party planning to us!
If you’re looking for a lively dinner:
12 Chairs has some of the most delicious Israeli food in NYC. We recommend their chicken schnitzel and hummus. The restaurant also has a great vibe and can accommodate a big group. After your friends are nice and full, the waiters bring around tambourines, the music starts, and you’ll be dancing on your chair.
Hidden behind a functioning pawn shop you’ll find the fabulous Beauty and Essex. WIth its sultry lighting and amazing playlist, you’re guaranteed to have a great time. The Smoked Bacon Tomato Soup Dumplings are not to be missed and finish off with the dessert wheel. Have some tip handy when you go to the bathroom, as the attendants tend to give out glasses of champagne.
For the friend group that loves to eat, Crab House is an all-you-can-eat seafood restaurant. If it’s your birthday, you get to eat for free as long as you have three friends with you. The selection is unbelievable, the food quality is fresh, and you’re guaranteed to leave absolutely stuffed.

Put your friends to the test in the ultimate escape room challenge. There are multiple rooms that you must successfully pass before getting to the bomb. If you’re with a group of more than 7 players you can compete against each other. Losing the game is part of the fun as you’re wearing white hazmat suits and get sprayed with paint as the “bomb” goes off.

If you’re looking for some relaxation as the ultimate self-care for your birthday, QC is the destination for you. Located in Governor’s Island, you can get amazing views of the New York City skyline. They’re offering free entry within 7 days of your birthday as long as you bring a paying guest. This offer is only valid on the weekends, you can find out more information here.
From birthday dinners, spas, and a healthy dose of competition, your friends at Hotel 99 hope you have a great time.

Marcus Ferguson
It is well located near the subway, it is quite clean, the area is safe and with shops around, on a major avenue, it is not at all noisy wich being NY is very unlikely, I was in a room with a bathroom,
Fabiana Martínez
The hotel is recycled and very nice. The rooms are very small but clean and nice the bathroom is shared with few rooms and I always found it empty. Also very clean and neat. Great budget option in NY.
Victoria Elizabeth
It was a quiet month, we achieved the goal of our stay in New York and felt safe. The location is practical, it is close to the station to move to the tourist area. The cleaning and service staff are very friendly and helpful.
