"tom" wrote in message om... Fist time visitor to NYC. Looking for suggestions on 1)best area to stay & 2)any specific hotels would be great too. Budget is $200-$300 per night, time Frame is latter part of October. I would define our tastes by a recent trip to San Fran. We stayed in a smaller boutique hotel, had an excellent Concierge/service, but we don't require someone to turn down our bed, room service, laundry, etc. Not to say we would rule out a large chain hotel yet if its a "tie" we would go with the boutique. I guess you could say we want to "experience" NYC, but will admit want to see/do all the typical touristy things as well. As well as location, other REALLY important consideration in a hotel is cleanliness and safety. I've done some research on the Inn at 23rd which seems but its in Chelsea which means I'm not sure what to me. Thanks in advance for the help. If I can return the favor with advice regarding travel to LA or San Fran then give a shout. We stayed recently at the Inn on 23rd and liked it very much. See tripadvisor.com for my, and others ,comments on this place. I wanted to stay in the lower Manhattan area but places in Soho and the Village are a little scarce. There are several good restaurants within easy walking distance of this place. |

Budget is $200-$300 per night, time Frame is latter part of October. I recently stayed at the Excelsior. It's on a side street (81st or 82nd, I think), 1/2 block from Central Park, across from the Museum of Natural History and a subway stop. Some visitors prefer to be nearer midtown, but I loved the Upper West Side. The room was nice, the employees very helpful, and the price good. It was VERY quiet. They serve breakfast (not included in room cost) but no other meals; but I only got coffee from the breakfast room. I'd stay there again without second thoughts. |
