Hotwire Hotel: 4.5* New York City (Midtown West) Hotel Sofitel New York

[txag]

2 people travelling to NYC Grand Central from 12/1 - 12/4.  Our friends are at the Algonquin, so we just want something nearby that isn't 580/night.  I found:

 

4.5* Grand Central for 335/ni  -  FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Children's activities

 

or a 4.5* Grand Central for 318/ni  -  FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Boutique hotel, Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access

 

I'm hoping for the Sofitel...but mostly want to avoid the Gotham.  Any help?  Thanks.

Welcome to Betterbidding.

First, a couple of PRICELINE EXPRESS suggestions (please confirm that the correct date/s of travel are showing on the landing page after clicking the links below.)

 

4.5* in the Grand Central zone for $274 for these dates on PRICELINE EXPRESS:

 

4.5* Grand Central Terminal - UN for $274
Pets Allowed
Business Center
Restaurant
Free Internet
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

>>> This listing has not yet been ID'd/reported. It may be something else, but a guess would be the new Even Hotel Midtown East. In any case, certainly a cheaper 4.5* option in the Grand Central zone for these dates than what is showing on HOTWIRE.

 

Also, if you want something closer to the Algonquin, PRICELINE EXPRESS has this:

 

4.5* Times Square - Theatre District for $343
Pets Allowed
Business Center
Restaurant
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

>>> Which I'd guess is the Westin Times Square, which would be very close to the Algonquin.

 

On HOTWIRE:

 

$335 Grand Central 4.5*

>>>Uncertain, but may be a new amenity set for the Sofitel.

 

$318 Grand Central 4.5*

>>>Guess would be the Gotham.

 

Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

 

Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.

The one with the description quoted above... but it was thru HOTWIRE, not PRICELINE EXPRESS.
