You Could Spend the Night in This “Friends”-Styled Apartment for Under $20
With two bedrooms, a huge living room, a balcony for parties, large closets, and rent control, could Monica Geller’s apartment in Manhattan be any more enviable? Only if you add in the Central Perk sofa and one of Joey and Chandler’s recliners. And thanks to a new opportunity coming to Booking.com, this “Friends” dream can be your reality (even just for one night).
On May 21, you could be one of the lucky “Friends” fans to book an overnight stay at “The Friends Experience” for $19.94, in honor of the year the hit show premiered on NBC. Hosted by Booking.com in partnership with Superfly X, you’ll be spending the night in the immersive space in New York City, filled with interactive experiences and photo ops from the show.
The “Friends Experience” two-story flagship location, which is normally open for day tours, has set recreations with original props and costumes that you can take advantage of all night long. Photo ops include pretending to help pivot the infamously doomed sofa, posing on the orange couch at the re-created Central Perk, and peeking through the cute yellow frame on Monica’s purple door.
You’ll also get a custom-designed tour so you can learn about the details, big and small, that make up the show. To sweeten the deal, “f you’re one of the lucky people to snag a reservation, you’ll get to bring a friend along for the memorable overnight stay.
So mark your calendars for 10 a.m. ET on Friday, May 21 and head over to Booking.com’s “The Friends Experience” listing to shoot your shot for a Sunday, May 23 or Monday, May 24 sleepover.
