sorted byJust bear it in mind… we then went in the summer and had a much better time… well worth the extra £500 ish.
I was in NY in Jan and the wind was chilly whilst walking in some directions, yet warm and sunny when the buildings sheltered you.
Prices for hotels last week when I was there were hitting $500/night+ for hotels that are usually half that - ridiculous when I paid £46 for a night at the Premier Inn near LHR T5 yet 5-10x that for something not a lot better (stayed at the Kimpton in April for £170ish yet over £430 this time. Around £170/night at the Intercontinental in San Francisco last week)
Could have been a holiday period (not just in the UK) as my BA flight from LHR-JFK was completely full.
Less than £150/night as part of a holiday is very good for New York.
£250 is probably an average (watching out for resort fees of $40/day? or whatever though)
If you were travelling further afield, then perhaps pick one up at JFK (Federal Circle) or elsewhere.
Don't really know of anyone who has ever hired a car in the area. Suppose a trip to Niagra Falls would work?
I would be more likely to rent a car in the Boston area, drive to Cape Cod and/or to Vermont etc.
I've stayed in Long Island (near the Queensboro' Bridge a few times: Country Inn & Suites, Holiday Inn and Hilton Garden Inn. 10 mins on the E line to Manhattan and it goes straight to and from JFK)
Sometimes it's cheaper near the financial district as there's nothing touristy there, but other times, out of the way places seem to be far more £££ than mainstream.
I've never had snow in NYC and I've been in most months multiple times.
Some icy sidewalks off the main routes and the tail end of snowy conditions (heaps of snow at the side of things generally), yes, but mostly in March.
Last time I was in LA and San Francisco, lovely and warm, blue skies.
Time before, very heavy rain.
Boston generally warm or chilly. Only ever seen snow there on Xmas Day and that was dealt with effectively.
Thanks to the OP, very happy wife
The Doubletree example from the OP says it has none.
Just had a look at the Hilton site and:
Millennium Hilton UN Plaza $30 + tax per night
Embassy Suites Times Square $30 + tax per night
New York Hilton Midtown $30 + tax per night
Hilton Times Square $35 + tax per night
Hamptons, Hilton Garden Inns and Doubletrees might be fine?
Some hotels have it, some don't, but it could add $150 for a 5 night stay at check-in / out.
You're generally looking at £300 minimum for flights alone, so a good £600+ for 2 people.
