There are more lodging options in New York than ever before. Hotel rates in Manhattan, even the usually budget-friendly chains, are notoriously high. If you are looking to save some money on your trip, don’t discount staying in another borough like Brooklyn or Queens, where there are great deals to be found. And don’t worry, you will still be close enough to the centre of all the action.
Lively and funky, yet comfortable, Aloft New York Brooklyn is a modern boutique hotel away from the chaos of midtown Manhattan, but close enough to enjoy it all. Kid and pet friendly, it’s a great place to stay with the family. It boasts comfortable rooms, and a fun rooftop bar with plenty of skyline views.
With a warm and inviting lobby, the Casablanca Hotel is a visual feast. Located in the Theatre District, the room decor looks like it fits right in, with its dramatic woodwork and mosaics. It is in an excellent location, just steps away from Broadway and Times Square. Enjoy complimentary buffet breakfasts and evenings mingling over wine and cheese.
If the New York Public Library is like an amusement park for bookworms, then its neighbour, the Library Hotel Manhattan is its accompanying resort. Inspired by its bookish neighbour, the hotel features 10 floors, each of which is based on a different Dewey Decimal classification. Each room is filled with books, and the entire hotel is warm and comfortable, just like an old-fashioned wood panelled library in a stately manor. Enjoy complimentary breakfast, as well as close proximity to Bryant Park and Fifth Avenue.
