Where would you guys reccomend I stay in NY? I am going to be in town (as a tourist!) for four days and was wondering if you know any good deals on hotels, etc. Everything I've seen so far seem to be very expensive, sans the hostels but I wanted to try to avoid them if at all possible. Any suggestions for decently priced places near the decent spots in the city?

This time I wasn't trying to be funny! I stayed there and enjoyed it.

Uh, the prices! I'm possibly seeing 6 shows within 3 nights and I won't have much money to spend on a nice hotel. First I have to convince my mom to see 6 shows.

My parents stay at the Hampton Inn at the Seaport. We love it there ~ I join them for breakfast. It's not crazy expensive. Especially if you've got AAA, AARP or Hilton Honors discounts.

I've stayed at The Belleclaire and really enjoyed it. There were 4 of us and we had a room with 2 double beds. The room was clean and didn't feel cramped with the 4 of us in there. I thought room service was great. It's within walking distance to some great places to eat and a few markets (it's right above one and Zabar's is only 2 or 3 blocks away). Hope that helps, if not I can go into more detail, just PM me.

absolutely love marriotts residence inn times square. Stayed there last january during restaurant week with 7 friends. Believe it or not got room for $165...Has free hot breakfast included. Each room has fridge, sink microwave. Even if you pay a little more than other places, you can bring in your own water, snax, food, and most importantly...booze


I will definitely be going back again next year

The Edison is nice, if you can get a bargain on Orbitz.com or Hotels.com.

I stayed at The Travel Inn on 42nd Street last October, it was a good location not far from the Times Square/Theater District with lots of restaurants nearby. It's not the nicest hotel but the rates weren't bad compared to everything in the TS area.

Herald Square Hotel. They have a website.

Wellington Hotel is great if you can catch a deal.
