Owner description:
Bryant Park has a French-style merry-go-round, open year-round, plus a well-maintained lawn, with chairs and tables. The outdoor Reading Room has picture books and summertime story times. In winter. Take a spin on the free ice-skating rink. The park also has clean bathrooms, a rarity in midtown.

Bryant Park is in Time Square, 5th Ave & 42nd Street, near the NY Public Library. It is amazing how the park has been updated. It is a beautiful park. Visitors love food, and there is much there. There is entertainment, beautiful gardens, various activities. Just to relax and enjoy the sights. You can spend the day in the park,...

Love to sit in this park. Chairs and tables for you to use, an outside library when the weather is good and you are framed by tall buildings. This is where I get my New York feeling!

A real oasis in the city - big lawn, lot of tables and chairs, fountain, library area with books to read, free yoga lessons, just an amazingly lovely place to sit - went there most days for breakfast which bought at the nearby Pret a Manger. During summer months has lots of activities, including a screen for films.

Find some time to sit and people watch, take a picnic, or just a drink and sit under the trees. Busy place but lovely.

a local gem behind New York Public Library. Bryant Park is a great place to sun bathe, read, sip a coffee or just stroll. For children there's even a Merry-go-round. During summer there are plenty of shows and usually a big screen where they display films at night.

This famous park was very close to our hotel so whenever we had enough of shopping to site seeing, we would sit in Bryant's park and have a drink and watch the world go by. People who work around the area have their lunch here and some play french bowls or just read. Its very relaxing even though you're right...

Bryant Park is just beautiful. You have to spend some time here so you can really soak up the atmosphere. Some small takeaway shops and bars are within the grounds. The park is situated right behind New York Public Library and surrounded by huge buildings and busy streets, yet the park is so peaceful and relaxing. There are heaps of...
