Cheap Hotels in New York

So this is my first post here at cheap hotels in New York and as you may have guessed from the title my main aim is to help people find great deals on discount accommodation in the Big Apple. New York is famous all over the world and so more and more people are picking it as their holiday destination both for long and short stays. The first thing you are going to notice about any potential hotel in New York is that your average room is going to be quite expensive relatively speaking, both when you compare it to the rest of America Vacanze in Puglia and other major cities like London and Paris. Still this doesn’t mean it’s impossible to find a good deal if your prepared to look around.

With all this being said i thought i would list a few points that i always check when booking any hotel, both to help keep the price down and also to filter out hotels that don’t fit. First i always make sure that im not paying for facilities/services I’m not going to use. A good example is if the hotel has a Gym or swimming pool, i know for a fact I’m very unlikely to use either of these if I’m on a short stay so i definitely don’t want to be paying for them. Now i know a lot of people may be thinking that these types of “extras” are free but you can bet they are filtered into the final room price somewhere.

The time you come to New York will also have a big effect on the final price you pay. Now most people think i mean the season when i say this but I’m actually talking about the time of week. Hotels here are much cheaper (sometimes 50%) at the start of the week (Monday – Wednesday) compared with the end of the week and the weekend. New York gets a lot of weekend visitors from big resorts like the Hamptons during the weekends in the summer season so if you are able to pick your dates then i suggest you take advantage of the low prices by booking outside the peak.

Like any city the location of your hotel will be a big factor in how much you pay and this is reflected in some prices you see in the main tourist districts. Ie if you want to be close to any of the major attractions like Times Square or Grand Central Terminal then you can expect to pay top Dollar. I’m a big fan of travelling just a little bit outside in the main areas to get a better price, as you know the Big Apple is famous for its taxis and its so easy to get one on any street and travel to the main attractions.

I know that after price most people base their hotel choice on star rating to help them choose, especially if they’ve never been there before. It’s not totally ludicrous but its worth remembering that many hotels are self certified which means they choose the star grade themselves. For this reason i usually like to go with a hotel that’s been assessed by some sort of reputable outside source. All this kind of info should be available on their website and for the few minutes of time it’s going to take its worth doing.
