in NYC Late June Where should we stay?
 

Hi- We are traveling to NYC june 22nd thru June 26th. Any recommednations about where to stay? thanks!

Well, Alex, there are literally hundreds of hotels in New York! You'll have to tell us quite a bit more!
For starters, how much do you want to spend,how many are you and what area do you want to stay in?

Midtown or Soho and I'd like to spend less than $200 / night Thanks!

Highly recommend Hotwire.com

We stayed at the Salibury hotel last March (www.nycsalisbury.com). It was a very nice hotel, many floors recently renovated (our room was recently renovated and a suite), near Carnegie Hall, Central Park, and very good restaurants. And I think is was around $200. The staff was very helpful, always had great recommendations on where to go, and I would not stay anywhere else.

Benjamin Hotel.
Quikbook.

Just booked the Millennium Broadway for $133/TOTAL! through Octopustravel.com (which was a link from tripadvisor.com). Thought that was a pretty good deal. Got the same hotel three years ago for $90/night (not including their fees, via Priceline), so more like $100+ night. Rates go down in NYC in the summer, it appears.

To inthechips, have you used octopustravel before? I looked at it but, have never heard of it? I'm wondering if it's reputable. Some prices are for requests and they recommend you don't call the actual hotel because, they won't have your name until 72 hours before you arrive. I'm leary of that.

Trisha, I did a search on deja.com for feedback on octopustravel and it was all quite positive. It was also linked from tripadvisor.com, which I saw as a good thing. Maybe I'm naive. The price was certainly right.

Try Novotel $119 a night on Expedia 52nd and Broadway
