paly1 Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Hello!Hubby and I are due to fly into NYC on 11/19 and fly out on 11/21 - Could you suggest any stratergies, prices, areas to get a good deal for 4* or above - would love a 4 1/2 or 5 *.Budget - would love to be around 200 but will be happy to pay more (250-275) per night if needed.I think we would prefer the upper west/east side or around 5th Ave - not really keen on Time Square or too far down in the financial district etc.Thanks!Paly:) Link to comment

paly1 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Sorry for the v late follow up - ended up booking direct through Omni Hotels on east side near 6th Ave. Got a good deal which inc. in room B'fast and a couple of other amenities which I thought were worth it instead of risking a 'bad' hotel or location for the v short stay.THanks BB for the help as always:) Link to comment
