Inside Hoda Kotb’s Homes: Check Out the ‘Today’ Host’s Houses and Real Estate Portfolio

There’s no place like home for Today host Hoda Kotb and her two daughters, Haley and Hope! The journalist raised her kids in two homes in New York before dropping a bombshell about moving in March 2024.

Shortly after the moving announcement, Hoda revealed she is leaving Today. She tearfully told viewers the news in September 2024. She plans to remain on the talk show until January 2025, before exploring other career ventures.

“I realized that it was time for me to turn the page at 60, and to try something new,” she said of the decision. “I remembered standing outside looking at these beautiful bunch of people with these gorgeous signs, and I thought, ‘This is what the top of the wave feels like for me.’ And I thought it can’t get better, and I decided that this is the right time for me to kind of move on.”

All About Hoda Kotb’s NYC Apartment

While working on one of the most popular morning talk shows, Hoda lived in a stunning New York City apartment with her kids for the first few years of their lives. The apartment, which is located in Upper Manhattan, made it incredibly convenient for Hoda to commute to the Today studio each day.

Prior to finding the NYC apartment of her dreams, she opened up about her interesting apartment search.

“The lady was like, there’s the apartment I want to show you. Over here is the bedroom, now look right over here, turn, here’s the living room! I was standing in one room, and I couldn’t believe that that’s what they were renting,” she told HuffPost in May 2016.

Hoda’s former apartment is so gorgeous! The views are stunning, and her kids had plenty of room to have fun dressing up and playing with their toys. The neutral color scheme and furniture choices were perfect.

Hoda ended up moving out of the NYC apartment and into a new home in 2024.

When she wants to spend weekends by the beach or take a break from the busy city, Hoda travels with Haley and Hope to their Long Island home. The oceanfront residence has the most gorgeous decor, with touches of turquoise and nautical nods.

Hoda once showed off her bedroom in a video shared on her Instagram account while celebrating her birthday in August 2023. The at-home birthday celebration was everything Hoda could have ever hoped for.

“I am so happy to be 59 this year. I feel so good about it,” the broadcaster said on a subsequent episode of Today. “If you’re worried about aging, and I know aging’s a thing, 59 is amazing. It’s an amazing year.”

Hoda Announced She Was Moving Into a New House

In March 2024, Hoda announced that she was moving with her daughters. She did not specify exactly where, other than the fact that their new home would be in the New York suburbs.

“I’m moving me and my kids to another location. Obviously in the New York area,” Hoda told cohost Jenna Bush Hager on Today.

She also discussed the decision behind the move on her “Making Space” podcast.

“My kids and I are gearing up to relocate to a new area for a different school, and it got me thinking about my own experiences growing up and how frequently we moved,” she told listeners.

During a June 3, 2024, episode of Today, she revealed that she had found a new home to move into with her girls and planned on doing so later that week.

“I literally was sitting at my desk this morning, where I sit every single morning. I light a candle, I have my journal, I do my stuff. And I thought to myself, ‘This is the last Monday I’ll be sitting at this desk,’ ‘cause we’re moving this week,” the journalist told her cohost.

But Hoda admitted that the move was definitely bittersweet, since it meant leaving the home in which she raised her two kids.

“I remember them trying to crawl up the stairs and I remember, now, how they race up and down,” she remembered. “And I was thinking about the very first time we brought them home and carried them up those stairs in that car seat and placed them in a little thing and all the things that happened there. And I was looking through old videos of them, when they were so little, and it’s like you want to hold onto things and you want to let go.”

“And when I saw these videos of them when they were kids, little babies, I can’t believe I have a 7 and a 5-year-old,” Hoda continued. “And I can’t believe all those memories. … There were so many things that we have built there.”

As for the reason behind the move, it was the chance to explore a new place with the kids.

“I want my kids to feel grass on their feet, and play in the yard, and ride bikes down the street, and run up and down the stairs,” the mom of two told People in August 2024. “I just see that life for them in this perfect house in this beautiful little town where I know they’ll be able to blossom into beautiful, independent, strong women.”

On Instagram, she shared a snapshot of her kids standing outside of their new home in their new neighborhood, as they got ready to walk to school for their first day.

“We went for our first day of school,” she later said on Today. “I carried a coffee and I had my sneakers and I walked my kids to school. It was awesome!”
