Posted: Fri May 10, 2013 2:04 pm Post subject: New York City Hotel Suggestions. |
|
|
|
I need some assistance.
My Daughter and Son in Law are planning to visit NYC in September for 10 days.
I need some hotel recommendations that are on the subway system, reasonably priced, in a safe area preferably and located in an area that has numerous cafe's, restaurants, shops etc.
They will be doing tourist stuff and plan on seeing four or five Broadway shows, city tour, WTC etc.
I have priced out the Manhattan hotels and they seem to be 300+ a night.
So I would appreciate any ideas or suggestions you might have. _________________

I've heard nothing but great things about Ace Hotel (NYC is one of their five locations; Los Angeles, Palm Springs, Portland, and Seattle being the other four). I don't think it's insanely priced either. NY Times called it "the country's most original new hotel."
I plan on staying at the one in Portland sometime this summer. _________________

In NYC the cheapest room is $359.00 per night. _________________

The Arcadian. It features neoclassical fenestration, Palladian windows, rusticated stonework, and marble cornices. Also, the lion-head stonework is iconic. _________________

Best of luck. _________________

Dude owns a boat, though. So, get in good with him. Hijinks will be had. _________________

Well, if he has a boat that makes all the difference. _________________

the Wythe Hotel in BK is nice, in Williamsburg (1 stop away from manhattan, 3 stops from Union Sq, which means 6 stops from Midtown/Grand Central, 6 stops from the West Village). Plus its not in Manhattan. _________________
