Macy's
Macy's New York is the world's largest department store
Nestled in Herald Square at the intersection of Broadway, Avenue of the Americas and 34th Street, Macy's flagship New York store opened in 1902 setting trends from the beginning with the first modern day escalators in New York City.
Over the years, Macy's Herald Square continued to set the standard for retail outlets in New York and evolved into America's largest department store occupying one city block with eleven levels of fashion for men, women, children and the home.
Macy's Herald Square offers visitors unique small group shopping experiences including a Breakfast Fashion Show, Cosmetics Master Class and consultations with personal shoppers. International visitors can sign up for a "Macy's International Savings Card" at the Herald Square Visitor's Center entitling them to 10% all purchases in all Macy's stores for 30 days.
More than just a department store, Macy's has become synonymous holiday celebrations in New York throughout the year. Ever year, Macy's Herald Square welcomes spring with its annual Flower Show with flowering cherry trees, 10 specialty gardens, flamingo topiary centrepieces, and flowers of every colour and variety imaginable on display throughout the store.

Macy's Reviews
Rated
out of 5 Macy’s is my go to store.
They have everything & some really good deals on designer stuff. Sometimes even cheaper than buying direct from the designer stores.
I’ve had some lovely conversations with the staff in this store. When you leave you feel like you’ve made friends. They’re so chilled. It’s great.
Also, the way the store is decorated for Christmas is beautiful. Even if you don’t have money to shop, come and have a look at the lights & decorations. You won’t be disappointed.
Ps. Pop upstairs to the Holiday Square, it’s so cute.

Absolutely huge departmental store - probably largest in NYC and spanning over 8 whopping floors with probably 100s of brands. They are mainly luxury and branded goods which covers the bulk of the first few floors - hardly any on offer unless you are really lucky. As you proceed upwards, there are more areas with discounts (can be up to 70% off).
Worth a visit for the experience and hype or just some good window shopping. Reminds me slightly of Harrods from the UK (although this is a much tamer version). Staff are all friendly and counters were very efficient given the number of cashiers present. Exterior designs are really well done and inviting - gives off a very posh vibe and definitely catches the eye of the regular passer-by! They have a very unique wooden escalator too around the seventh or eight level. There are a couple of F&B outlets within this massive layout too so don’t worry about being hungry at all!

I myself haven't been here in a very long time but I have to say that I am a little impressed. When I went here, I was surprised to see that it was not crowded with people. I thought that the store was extremely clean and the whole store had very good and decent prices.

Awesome place for shopping lovers. You name it and you will get it. I saw all brands for clothing, shoes, jewelry, home products etc. Weekends are very crowded so prefer to on weekdays if possible. Make sure u have few hours if you really want to visit this place..

Located on W. 34th and Broadway in Midtown West. We were walking 'Times Square', making our way to the 'Empire State Building'... but first, as a Macy's lover, we had to stop at my beautiful Macy's headquarters!
This store is big, clean, and very nicely organized, fully stocked, and filled with so many happy shoppers. Seeing the holiday decor in person was priceless.
Staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, I had a great experience at thee NYC store.
