If looking for a destination where you can have a great time on a tight budget, this is the place too. Strolling Central Park, or the Zoo, grabbing a slice of New Yorks famous “slice pizza” and sitting on a park bench people watch

When to Visit Based on Price

New York City is one of the few U.S. major cities that don’t really have a low season for visitors. All year long international and domestic visitors arrive to an already busy city that hosts business events. That being said, there is a window of opportunity when crowds slightly diminish, and better prices can be found, and that’s between January and March.
• Low Season: January through March is less busy. Average Daily Rates of:
  • 2 Star: $59-$540
  • 3 Star: $73-$520
  • 4 Star: $145-$690
• High Season: March through December offers the best weather, and destination for families. Average Daily Rates of:
  • 2 Star: $63-$590
  • 3 Star: $80-$800
  • 4 Star: $200-$900

Magic Savings Tip: Visit one of the many city “Tourist Centers” for discount coupons for top attractions. Street vendors and smaller Pizza restaurants serving slices is your best bet for savings on money and time in line.

Sights you mustn’t miss

Take a ride to the top of the Empire State Building, and see if King Kong is still hanging around. This is a great way to get a feeling of just how large an area New York City and it’s 5 boroughs take up.
Walk the streets of Time Square, and explore the stores and business’s there.
Visualize what it must be like as the ball drops on New Years Eve, with thousand’s of people freezing while packed like sardines.
Any visitor to New York City should visit the World Trade Center Memorial building and it’s bronze panels with the victim’s names on it.
For families, a visit to the New York Zoo and Museum of Natural History with its impressive dinosaur collection is a must.

Fun things to do

A visit to Central Park no matter what time of year is a wonderful experience. A great place to stretch you legs for a walk, pack a picnic lunch, and sit on a bench to relax, or take a horse drawn carriage ride. Probably not the best place to be doing this after dark, but with deals of Broadway shows, and after hour’s clubs, there’s plenty to do instead.

Wine and Dine Tips

When visiting New York City, your dining options are beyond comprehension. Here you can find every ethnic restaurant in the world, from China Town, Little Italy, and so much more. Depending on where you decide to stay, will no doubt determine what area you decide to dine.
Your options don’t have to be five star restaurants to enjoy New Yorks finest food. Asking your front desk or Concierge services where they suggest for the price range and type of food your looking for will no doubt tweak your taste buds and still leave room on your credit card.
One thing to remember is that the taxicabs of the city are excellent for getting to and returning from evening dinner or attractions.

Day Trips

Always a fun adventure is a visit to Cony Island, for a ride on the famous old wooden roller coaster, and a Coney Island hotdog.
Another must do is to take the ferry out to Liberty Island for a visit of the Statue of Liberty. In summertime, you can take a ferry from lower Manhattan to Rockaway Beach, and be a New Yorker for a day.
If wine is your pleasure, visiting some of the Vineyard Wineries outside the city can be quite rewarding. Wineries like the Bedell Cellars on Long Island where you sip in an old restored barn, or a glass on the lawns of Warwick Valley Winery in Warwick.

Where to Stay

New York is arguably the most famous city in the world. It's a place where people with grand aspirations go to live their dreams, and it has a price tag to match. It's not known for being the most affordable city, but if you know where to look, you can find the perfect accommodation to stay at, ranging from fancy to budget-friendly.
A great place to start exploring the city is downtown Manhattan. This tourist hub is where the iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art and Grand Central Station are located. Hotels like the Hilton New York, The Sheraton or the Westin Times Square all offer luxurious rooms close to these hotspots and are a great base for your city adventures.
The thriving tourism industry in New York City hasn't escaped the ‘green revolution', with many hotels catering to the eco-friendly market. One of the ‘greenest' hotels to stay in is 70 Park Avenue, located only blocks from famed entertainment venues like Carnegie Hall and the Lincoln Center. This innovative hotel offers discounts to hybrid car owners and commits to eco-friendly practices like conversion of kitchen oil to biodiesel fuel.

Harlem - hot new neighborhood New York

Harlem and Upper Manhattan was for years considered much of a no go. Today people will still look askance at you for suggesting a visit. But it's no longer a risky visit and Harlem today is a hugely vibrant and significant area. At the southern end of Harlem is 125th Street. You'll love the shopping here because it's a vibrant retail corridor with all the big chains you'll know, plus an eclectic array of locally owned shops, restaurants, and offices - including those of former President Bill Clinton. Between Adam Clayton Powell and Frederick Douglass Boulevards is the famous Apollo Theater, where Amateur Night discovered the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, one of the first winners, followed by the famous Billie Holiday, James Brown, Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye and Richard Pryor. Harlem's gospel church services are highly regarded for their pumping music and passionate preaching. You'll be welcomed at the Abyssinian Baptist Church, led by the influential Reverend Calvin Butts and renowned for its choir, and Mother A.M.E. (African Methodist Episcopal) Zion, the state's oldest black church, founded in 1797. If you love a little grandeur, check out Columbia University and its quite stunning main campus, as well as the incredible Cathedral of St. John the Divine, the world's largest gothic cathedral. This outstanding architectural statement has a nave as long as two football fields. Incredibly, it has been under construction since 1892, and is now two-thirds done, with no completion date in sight. Explore it and you won't regret it. First, however, get great deal on accommodation in the Manhattan area and save your cash for big spending elsewhere.

Hidden secrets in New York

Sometimes exploring the off-the-beaten-track secret spots in a city are far more enticing - especially if a previous trip has enabled you to enjoy the more mainstream highlights. Manhattan is a great place to stay - and many hotels are surprisingly cheap. Find cheap accommodation in New York now and make the most of your vacation. New York is all about the high life, and some of the best is on the high line. Stroll the elevated former freight railway running along Manhattan's western flank, and you'll see Chelsea and the Meatpacking District from 30ft up. Walk the full length from Gansevoort Street to 20th Street in lower Manhattan. Head to the beach - Brooklyn's Coney Island is a great spot for day-trippers with its carnival rides, freak shows and street performers. Brighton Beach's boardwalk is also a lot of fun - and the 'Little Odessa' reputation gives it a real cosmopolitan vibe. Again with the high life... the Cantor Roof Garden on top of the Metropolitan Museum of Art has a different big-name sculpture exhibition every summer. Not only will you enjoy the art but you'll get a bird's eye view of Central Park and the Midtown area. Visit a New York street market - Hester Street Fair on the Lower East Side opens up next to Seward Park every Saturday, and you'll find dozens of foodie temptations as well as vintage jewelry and accessories from up-and-coming NYC designers.

Explore Williamsburg, NY

There's so much to see and do in NYC that sometimes it's easier to just pick a neighborhood and really get to know it well. NY has a slew of places that will captivate you and we especially love Williamsburg in the Brooklyn area. There's plenty of excellent accommodation to be had on our site all over the city and you'll love the range and the pricing. The place to start your exploration is on Bedford Avenue, the neighborhood's main thoroughfare, anchored by the Bedford Mini-Mall (218 Bedford Ave between North 4th and 5th Sts). This is where you'll a much-admired collection of small, boutique and indie style shops, plus a range of eclectic food and coffee shop choices and the occasional modern art gallery. Getting there: arching out west from the East River to Newtown Creek, which forms the border with Queens, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, is bounded by Greenpoint to the north and Bedford-Stuyvesant to the south; you can get to Williamsburg on the G, J, M, Z and L subway lines—the latter stops at restaurant and retail hub Bedford Avenue. One of the must-do's is Reynard in the Wythe Hotel; this is seriously good fun and comprises the innovative movie-theater-cum-restaurant Nitehawk Cinema. You'll be talking about it back home for months so make sure you do it. Once spring is here, you'll love the seasonal gastronome extravaganza Smorgasburg in East River State Park - one of the city's best street fairs.

A big day NYC-style

You don't have to love New York's hustle and bustle but you have to agree this is the biggest, loudest and most alive city in the known world. If you're stuck for time, here's how to do 'all' of NYC in a day - preferably two. Start your morning early at the Rockefeller Center and climb your way to the top. Or catch the elevator. But either way get to the Top of The Rock Observation Deck and enjoy the vistas spreading out in front of you. The viewing deck opens at 8 in the morning, so it's a good first stop. From up on high, you'll also see your next destination. Head uptown to Central Park - because everyone has to walk through this magical place at least once in a lifetime. There are 843 acres, more than 26,000 trees, 58 miles of walking paths and 36 bridges to stroll over romantically hand in hand. Depending on the season, you can go roller skating or ice skating. Now, having had a small break, head down Museum mile and choose which of the 10 museums on this cultural haven you'll visit. If you've really only time for one, your best bet is The Metropolitan Museum of Art, at East 82nd Street. Here's where you can view limited-time exhibitions as well as objects in the museum's permanent collection, which consists of more than 2 million works of art that span the breadth of human history. There's plenty of excellent accommodation to be had on our site and you can really live it up on the savings.

It sure beats one of those 'My Mom went to NYC and all I got was this lousy T-shirt' gifts! Artists and Fleas is in two locations - 88 Tenth Avenue, Manhattan, and 70 Seventh Street, Brooklyn - so you're spoilt for choice. It's very much based around clothing and fashion designed by local artists and up and coming students.

Brooklyn Flea is at One Hanson Place, Brooklyn and it's outside during summer and inside during winter - perfect. Brooklyn Flea features hundreds of vendors every weekend selling antique and repurposed furniture, vintage clothing, collectibles, and handmade jewelry, art, and crafts by local artisans and designers. You'll also find delicious snacks and healthy, fresh food. Chelsea Antiques Garage is something special at 112 West 25th Street, Manhattan on Saturdays and Sundays. There's a triplet of markets in the area and this is the best. It harks back to the best traditions of flea markets - slightly scungy surrounds in a parking garage with an abundance of quirky, designer-led accessories and nic-nacs.

There are permanent exhibits and temporary - for example the significance of the Civil War ironclad USS Monitor and the Pearl Harbor casualty USS Arizona, which were both built in the area. The Brooklyn Bridge is no mere bridge - this is an icon! A beautiful piece of architectural art, the span represented a real feat of engineering at the time it opened in 1883.

A little local culture? Try exploring SoHo, Little Italy and Chinatown areas. They're all relatively close to each other and you'll spy on 'famous' mafia hangouts and historic event sites, you can gaze in awe at the cast iron buildings of SoHo (and watch the rich and famous come and go) and check out famed areas like Canal and Mott and the former Five Points District made famous in the Gangs of New York movie. Greenwich Village is still largely residential and the quiet streets, brick townhouses and genteel air make it an easy place to stroll.

You can watch it all take place live through the large studio windows. If a little bit of culture (real culture) is in order after partaking of all things celebrity, why not take the children to the American Museum of Natural History on Central Park West at 79th St. The children may like to try their hand at assembling the cast skeleton of a Prestosuchus, a 14-foot-long reptile from the late Triassic Period. Or you could take in the Hall of Dinosaurs, hunt for hidden creatures in the two-story African Baobab Tree and much more. Once you've worn them out intellectually, try a leisurely stroll through the outer reaches of Central Park. You'll find street vendors with plenty of food, or collect a sandwich from Alice's Tea Cup. A relatively inexpensive and arguably more fun way to see New York is from the ubiquitous Staten Island Ferry. It's only 5 miles and twenty minutes but it delivers sensational views of the harbor, iconic lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty.
