    hi all
    thought i would let you know about a great deal i may have stumbled across. or at least i think it is. just booked the westin inn in times square for 4 nights in june direct on there website as there doing buy one night get the second for 50% so i have just booked a corner king executive with continental breakfast and Evening Hors_d'oeuvres for £795 and the offer is for booking until dec 09. eveywhere else i looked was at least £1000+ and there was cheaper rooms than this available on the site i know the hotel is central and may be a little noisy and not to everyones taste but for thhose who want that it could be a good deal
    need to have a lightbulb moment
  • Hi, my husband is going to run the New York marathon (got the confirmation this morning, lucky him!) so now we are looking for places to stay. We want it to be cheap but not staying in a dorm or ymca. Any tips?

    I would look on the New York thread here first, lots of suggestions from people who have stayed there. NY is not a cheap place so may be best to look at value for money.

    Hiya,

    I'm looking for a bit of information regarding booking through Hotwire for Hotels in NYC. Has anyone had any experience with this, and how did it work out for you?

    I'm planning on a trip 6-13th March 2010 - flights are fine, have nice cheap ones going from Bristol to Newark (or JFK if thats more convenient) with Continental.

    However, at the moment I'm unsure on Hotels to stay in. I see a lot of people recommending the Cosmo, but can't find a post on exactly why :(

    Short version:

    Is using Hotwire worth it? How often do people get burnt and end up with bad hotels?

    What is it thats so great about the Cosmo?

    Whenever I've stayed in NYC I've pricelined it except once and got really good deals but then I don't care where I stay so long as it is central and clean (I usually go 4 star -the one time I went 3 star I got the Crowne Plaza which was fine too)
    Only time I didn't priceline it I stayed at the NewYorker-I found a great deal on their own website half the price of any of the 3rd party sites and got a huge room.

  • Hi Guys

    I have jsut used Priceline to get a hotel for 2 nights managed to get the Warwick (4star) for £133 a night but then they added taxes also I meant to put a total stay of 3 nights but messed up so now I need somewhere else to stay for 5 nights as the other hotel I had found was only vaild for 4 nights, any ideas??
  • When i went to NYC last December I stayed in the Hilton Times Square, who had an offer on 4 nights for the price of 3 nights.
    There were four of us and we had one room with two double beds - worked out just under £700 for the four of us, for four nights :j Had an amazing time!! Really recommend this hotel :)
