Priceline Hotel: Help With When is Best to Travel IN NY and Where

[LoveAaliyah]

Hi everyone,

I am planning on travelling to NY after I graduate from UCLA in June (YAY!) and am pretty flexible about the dates I travel. I am looking to travel for probably 4-6 days anywhere from June 16-July 4th.

Which days of the week are best for cheaper hotel fares? Also, which regions are the best to stay at (with relative ease to travel to different areas using public transportation). And how much will I be looking to spend for a hotel room?

I'm so used to 4* $100 hotel rooms in CA, but looking at the NY boards, it seems like they run from around $175-300!!!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Generally speaking weekends are a little easier than midweek, but this can easily not hold true for any particular date depending upon what is happening in the city.

I'm guessing that you'll have better luck with the second half of your date range vs. the first half. When will you know just how many nites you'll be taking on this trip?

Thanks for the advice. Good new and bad news.

Good News - Ended up graduating! (YAY)

Bad News - Plans fell through with friends and I never went to NY.

Thanks for the help though!
