Make Mine Manhattan: Murray Hill Vacation Rentals
A vacation rental in the Murray Hill area is a bit lower-key than some of the other Midtown destinations - or indeed, than some of the hot-right-now spots in places like Chelsea and NoHo. So whether you’re looking for a quiet little apartment or a house big enough to pack in your family and friends, this section of Manhattan will give you a break from some of the relentless energy of New York - at least until you’re ready to start again tomorrow.
Although Murray Hill isn’t much of a hill anymore - it was gradually leveled out - traffic can be a problem here. Like much of New York City, the Murray Hill neighborhood started life as a farm. And how things have changed since!

Murray Hill Attractions
Murray Hill shares some historical prominence with nearby Gramercy Park. A don’t-miss site for any vacationer is Grand Central Station (and using the train and subway services is a welcome relief from sitting in traffic). The Scandinavia House pays homage to the influence of Scandianian immigrants and culture. Fans of Indian cuisine will want to visit neighboring “Curry Hill” an area famous for its excellent, authentic restaurants.
