in June, wow, that'll be hot.. .

$625 is the price probably without taxes for a 5 night stay, so click through on hotelconxions and it'll then tell you the price with taxes included.. its $125 a night which is nice and cheap for the cosmo.

I personally love the area the cosmo is in, and i stayed at a different hotel back in march, however nice the hotel was, there was nothing in the area, whereas tribeca, where the cosmo is has plenty going on...

hotwire and priceline are nice ideas, you'll probably get some big name brand, but for me, it's the area of NYC that i'm in that makes a huge difference..

Cant wait!!

me and my two teenage girlies are off to NY for 5 nights in August....I've heard it'll be very hot :eek:

ok probably not a marky bargain...flights are £1300 for the three of us and the hotel is £160 a night......

We are staying at the Hotel Beacon and I think we'll just play it by ear and wander round aimlessly

M4RKM

£433 a flight?!!! woooaaaah... they saw you coming didn't they!!!!

honestly.. you can still get cheap flights in august.. i priced up august (6 nights), and still was getting around the £300 mark...

and with NY, it isn't the heat that gets you.. it's only around 28c, it's the humidity if there isn't a breeze...

what airport?

from London - £412 with delta through ebookers
from Manchester - £338 with delta through opodo

searched via kayak

i was looking the week before, so swings and rounabouts with flight prices..but even at £338 from MAN, that's a £286 saving, which is substantial!

I searched through Kayak...Heathrow to JFK...and I was on the net for ages and that was the best I could find...some left from Heathrow and returned to Gatwick!

It's done now...there's always someone on the plane who got their holiday 'considerably cheaper than yow'
