Hotwire Hotel: 4*+ NYC Hotel 12/4 to 12/8

[ADL112]

Hi - looking for a hotel around Central Park South / UWS

4 ppl (2 adults 2 children)

How realistic is $150 a night?

Welcome to BetterBidding!

 

As soon as i saw your dates in the title i said to myself, 'these are going to be expensive dates'... unfortunately $150 is not likely going to be realistic, and that is without even factoring in you need quad occupancy (which often further raises prices in NYC).

 

I knew these dates would be pricey as historically/seasonally the first 2 weeks of December are some of the most expensive of the year with tourists coming to see the holiday displays and to do last-minute holiday shopping.

 

So a few questions to get started and dig a little deeper:

-are your dates flexible at all?  rates typically drop substantially mid-Dec, so if you could delay your trip by 2 weeks (possibly 1 week, although not sure how much 1 week will help, i'd have to investigate further) prices will be quite a bit less

-how familiar are you with NYC, as UWS/CPS are not the most common areas for a typical tourist in the city, do you have a specific reason to stay in one of these two areas, are you open to other areas that would be more centrally located

-what is the minimum star rating you're willing to accept

-how old are your kids

Hi,

 

Thanks for the quick reply.

 

Thoughts were to stay near the park / near AMNH. Kids are 5 and 7.

 

Unfortunately no flexibility in days but definitely in the area we stay in if this helps with price.

 

With star rating - would prefer 4+ but if there was reasonable accuracy with the hotel so we can assess 3 we may need to be realistic and go for a 3 star property.

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

It's likely going to be too cold to want to spend a lot of time in the park, but that's not that important at the moment since you're more likely going to be constrained by budget...
