NEW YORK AT XMAS
 
My daughter and I are going to NY in December. Ages 40 & 18. We have not decided what hotel yet, but would like to stay close to times square, theatre distict, lincoln center. Would appreciate any hotel ideas that are not priced out of this world. Any suggestions on whats best to do around Xmas, we have 6 days.

Most hotels in The City will be pricey, especially during the Christmas season. One place to look into in Time Square is the Marriot Marquis, which is also close to the theater district. The Lincoln Cnter is actually on the Upper West Side, a little ways from Times Square. While in The City, don't miss the Rockefeller ice skating rink.<BR><BR>http://www.nymarriottmarquis.com/

A reasonably priced hotel in the theater district that usually receives good reviews is the Edison on W. 47th, just west of Broadway. You might also try the Empire located across the street from Lincoln Center.

check out the Gorham on W.55th Street.<BR>http://www.gorhamhotel.com

Try either the Empire at Lincoln Center or the Salisbury on 57th Street.

Thanks for the input - I'm leaning towards booking a room the the Warwick Hotel $159 per night seems reasonable- anyone stayed there - or heard anything?<BR>

Andrea, The Warwick is fine and in a great location. You'll be near everything - Central Park, Radio City, a short walk to theater and shops.<BR><BR>Have fun.

P.S.<BR>Here's the Warwick's website:<BR>http://www.warwickhotelny.com/

Andrea - I am also planning a trip to NYC in December and The Warwick is one of the hotels I'm considering. Where did you get your rate of $159 from as it's better than the one I got?

Andrea Oct 2nd, 2002 03:52 PM

Adele - I actually booked The Warwick hotel for 6 nights in December from Lodging.com and got a rate of 156.00 per night.
