Hotwire Hotel: Help for an hotel near NYC!

[bbgreg]

Hi!

I want to say that my english isn't perfect ... sorry french is my first language.

First time for me to this forum and it will be the first time also on Hotwire (I know, I will pass throught the special link!).

We are 4 girls who want to have a shopping week-end at New York, October 6-8. We are looking for an hotel where we can easily go to NYC (chinatown, little italy, Century 21,...).

I heard that there is a shuttle from Seacaucus to go to Manhattan for $3. Will it be a nice area to stay?

Or I see nice deal for a 3.5* in Newark Airport (maybe the DoubleTree)...

We have a limited budget, so 1 room is not a problem for us. For sure if we can have a room at $75(like the 3.5* in EWR) we will buy 2 rooms!

I supposed that if you enter 4 adults, the hotel will give you automaticaly 2 double beds, right?

So, to resume:

- check-in October 6 check-out October 8

- 4 adults

- hotel near NYC (a 20 minutes ride isn't a problem for us!)

- budget of $150/night

Thank you!

Do you have a car? I doubt you will get a hotel / inn room for $150 / night. Maybe a hostel but I'm not sure. If you will have a car with you, you should consider NJ or Queens, NY instead. You should be able to find a room for $120-$130 per night.

Oh yes, sorry. Regarding Seacaucus, the area is not great but it is reasonably safe. The bus may run infrequently on Sundays, otherwise it is a good choice. Try to find something as close to the bridge as possible.

Bon chance

Thanks for your answer Cart, but we have found a DEAL at the Affinia Manhattan for $156/night.

Now we will look for a cheaper parking in the area... $35/day is really expensive! I think I have read on this forum about parking for $15/day. It will be perfect if a can find the discussion about this cheap parking...

Congrats! That's a great deal. Every other decent hotel is $300+ per night.

Yes, parking is pretty ridiculous in NYC. Sorry, can't help you in this area.

I will be going to NYC that weekend too. Staying in Fort Lee, NJ.

Have fun.

Thank you Cart!

I have found deals for parking for $10 or $15 / 10 hours in Manhattan.

It's on Icon PArking. You can find the link on a discussion in this forum

Enjoy your stay in NYC you too!

bbg reg,

how did you come across your deal of $156/night at the Affinia Manhattan? I'm visiting NYC from 10/19-10/26 and am looking for such great deals.
