Why choose New York City for a corporate retreat?
New York puts world-class culture, food and some of the best views anywhere within a few subway stops of each other, so a team can meet in the morning and be climbing the outside of a skyscraper, sailing past the Statue of Liberty or walking The Met after closing by evening. Three major airports connect the city to almost everywhere, and most teams fly in without a connection. Stay in SoHo, in Midtown near Rockefeller Center or on the far West Side at Hudson Yards, and build the days around what your team wants to leave with.

In their words
Why teams keep booking with Wilder
As a remote team, it's important for us to create an intentional space for us to come together and connect as more than co-workers. We believe there's no better way to do that than in nature and Wilder Retreats helped us do just that.
Chris ClarkCEO
We've worked with Wilder Retreats on over three retreats now and it's been the best experience ever. They have great locations in their pocket, work closely with you on budget and details, and are always a step ahead with planning. I don't know how we'd execute on our team offsites without them!
Britt CooperVP of Talent
Our time with Wilder Retreats in Yosemite was nothing short of magical. We explored, we laughed, and we grew together. It was a humbling reminder of the beauty and power of nature, and of the importance of fostering connections with those around us.
Lily BakourHead of Communications
Wilder Retreats ran our firmwide offsite this year. It was clear we had a true partner in Wilder. From the earliest planning chats through the final goodbye for the airport, our Wilder Retreats team was responsive, organized, and upbeat, so much so that our own staff who worked with them to plan could simply enjoy the retreat instead of juggling logistics. The result was a relaxed, engaging few days where people could focus on connecting with colleagues and re‑energizing for the year ahead. We came away feeling both cared for and confident that we’d choose Wilder Retreats again without hesitation!
Emma DysonChief of Staff
Wilder Retreats presented, organized and executed a company retreat in Big Sky for us. The details were communicated in a timely manner both prior to the event and during. Our group had an amazing time! I would highly recommend Wilder Retreats.
Megan OrtmanBusiness Development
Wilder quickly earned our trust by being upfront about our timeline and budget, which was refreshing after our experiences with previous planners. [The Wilder team’s] calm, hands-on approach made the whole process feel seamless.
New York City CORPORATE RETREAT
Frequently asked questions
New York puts world-class culture, food and views within a few subway stops of each other, so a team can meet in the morning and share something remarkable by the afternoon. It is easy to reach from almost anywhere, and the hotels range from intimate SoHo boutiques to Midtown landmarks that can host a whole company.
Crosby Street Hotel suits leadership teams and smaller groups, with 86 rooms in SoHo, private meeting rooms and a 99-seat screening room. Lotte New York Palace is the choice for larger groups, with 909 rooms and extensive event space in Midtown. Equinox Hotel Hudson Yards fits teams who want wellness built in, with 212 rooms, a full Equinox club and spa, and Edge and the High Line next door.
Spring and fall bring the most comfortable weather for walking the city and sailing the harbor. December is festive but busy and priced higher. Hotel rates are often lower in January, February and the height of summer.
Teams fly into JFK, LaGuardia or Newark, with nonstop flights from across the US and many international cities. Amtrak also connects Boston, Philadelphia and Washington, DC directly to Midtown. We handle airport greetings and transfers for the whole group.
Yes. Lotte New York Palace can host groups of 100 or more under one roof, and larger groups can spread across nearby hotels with shared sessions and dinners. Experiences like Edge City Climb and the harbor sail can run in waves or on multiple boats.
No. Every day mixes gentler options with bigger moments. Edge City Climb is optional, and anyone who prefers to stay on the observation deck can cheer the team on from there.
Beyond the four above, we can arrange a spa day at QC NY on Governors Island, a helicopter flight over Manhattan, a private jazz set, a guided food walk through Chinatown and the Lower East Side, a cooking class at Chelsea Market, rowboats or a guided bike ride in Central Park, and sunrise yoga on the Equinox rooftop.
New York is one of the great food cities. Teams can share chef’s table dinners, a guided food walk through Chinatown and the Lower East Side, a hands-on cooking class at Chelsea Market and a reception among the collection at The Met.
Four to six months is ideal, and earlier for spring, fall and December. Evenings at The Met and good Broadway seats for a group are the first things to fill.
Wilder handles every logistical detail, saving internal teams an average of 100+ planning hours. We build each itinerary around your business goals, so the sessions, activities and downtime all support what you want your team to leave with.
