Priceline Hotel: Need hotel/zone education...

[slruud]

Might finally be taking a trip to New York this October, and need to know reasonable areas to stay in. We have two free nights to use at the Omni Berkshire...out of a 4 night stay...and would like to know if that area/zone is central to public transit and tourist destinations. Any others that might be recommended are welcome. We would be flying into Laguardia.

Thanks.

At the 4* level: MTE, MTW, CPS, TS and ESB are typically the most frequently bid and considered well located

At the 3.5* level MSG can be added to the mix, but MTE and CPS can become problematic:

In NYC when bidding 3.5* and lower:

MTE - some 'known' hotels can be up to a 15 minute walk to the subway

CPS - has the Hudson Hotel, which while well located, has notoriously small rooms (~140 sq. ft.)

If the above doesn't fit into your budget, Chelsea and some other locations can be added/considered as well, but the above is a good 'core' starting point.
