Meeting blocks from $295 / 3 hr · Full day from $770
Skip the beige conference room. Rent a bright studio floor two blocks from Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan from $295 for 3 hours (full days from $770) for board meetings, offsites, planning days, interviews, and training — configured boardroom, classroom, or theater style, with screens and A/V added only when you need them.
Overview
Match Studios rents meeting space at 545 8th Ave in Midtown Manhattan, two blocks from Penn Station: the 750 sq ft Studio 2110 from $295 for 3 hours or $770 for a full 8-hour day, and the 1,850 sq ft Studio 1720 from $410 for 3 hours with tiered pricing up to 60 attendees. Wi-Fi, natural light, and flexible seating are standard; screens and A/V are add-ons.
Why a studio
Every team knows the drained feeling of hour five in a windowless conference room. These floors are the opposite environment: 12 ft ceilings, south-facing windows, skyline views, and open space that lets a group physically reconfigure when the agenda shifts from presentation to breakout to debate. Companies book them for exactly the sessions that fail in beige rooms — strategy days, board meetings, postmortems, planning offsites — because the room's energy is part of the outcome.
Configurations
Furniture is modular and priced like a rental, not a package: 6 ft tables at $10 each and folding chairs at $3 each. A 12-seat boardroom costs about $56 in furniture on top of the block. Classroom rows for a 24-person training — 24 chairs and six tables — run $132. U-shape for a facilitated discussion, theater rows for an all-hands — tell us the layout when booking and load-in is coordinated before you arrive, so the room is working when your team walks in.
A/V
Add a 55" HD TV on a rolling stand with HDMI for $20, a 75" TV for $35, or the Cinema 4K projector for $35 when the deck deserves a wall. The 500-watt speaker with two microphones ($40) covers town halls and hybrid all-hands audio. Wi-Fi supports video calls and screen sharing without ceremony — bring laptops and your preferred conferencing kit, plug in, and start.
Day rates
The 8-hour block turns the studio into your company's office for a day: $770 in Studio 2110, from $1,100 in Studio 1720 for up to 15 people (tiers continue to 60). Distributed teams flying into New York use it as a landing zone — morning stand-up through evening wrap in one room, five minutes' walk from Penn Station and Moynihan for everyone commuting in, near Port Authority for the bus crowd, with Times Square hotels in walking distance for out-of-towners.

FAQ
Hotel meeting rooms and managed conference centers in Manhattan commonly quote $100–300+ per hour before catering minimums. Match Studios meeting blocks start at $295 for 3 hours in Studio 2110 — that works out to $99/hr — and a full 8-hour day is $770. Studio 1720 starts at $410 for 3 hours and scales by guest count up to 60 people.
Yes — that's exactly what the 8-hour block is for. A full working day in Studio 2110 is $770, or $595 for 6 hours; Studio 1720 runs from $1,100 for a 15-person day. Book online, bring laptops, add screens if you need them, and hand the space back at the end of the day with no lease and no membership.
Boardroom (one large table), classroom rows, U-shape for discussion-heavy sessions, or theater rows for presentations. Six-foot tables are $10 each and folding chairs $3 each, so a 12-person boardroom setup adds about $56 to the block price. Tell us your layout in advance and load-in is coordinated before you arrive.
A 55" HD TV on a rolling stand with HDMI is $20, a 75" TV is $35, and the Cinema 4K projector is $35. For town-hall-style sessions, the 500-watt speaker with two microphones is $40. Wi-Fi handles video calls and screen sharing; bring your own laptop and any preferred conferencing hardware.
Studio 2110 is 750 sq ft — comfortable for boards and teams up to roughly the size of its 40-chair furniture allowance, with most groups booking 6–20. Studio 1720 is 1,850 sq ft with meeting pricing tiered for 1–15, 16–35, and 36–60 attendees, which suits trainings and larger offsites.
The building is at 545 8th Ave between 37th and 38th — about a 5-minute walk from Penn Station and Moynihan Train Hall, and under 10 minutes from Port Authority. For teams commuting from New Jersey, Long Island, or Connecticut, everyone arrives without a second subway leg.
Coffee runs, bagels, and boxed lunches are fine without ceremony. Full catering service needs advance approval so delivery, setup, and cleanup are coordinated with the building. There's no food-and-beverage minimum either way — many teams simply order delivery mid-session.
