Hotels in or near NYC
- Thread starter topper
- Start date
for the best recommendations, we would need price range and kinda whatcha wanna do. Anything in the city is going to have rail/subway service within a few blocks walk. what airport are you flying into? Makes a little difference, JFK has a train system that connects to the LIRR which runs into penn station, from there you can go literally anywhere on the rail/subway.
LGA, well its closest to the city but you are cabbin/bussin it to the city, no rail service there.
Newark, eh, its doable, again depends on where you are trying to get to/do in the city.
Other area airports are doable but you dont wanna rent a car and most of the rest are WAY too $$ to get into the city.
Let us all know whatcha looking for and stuff and I'm sure some good recommendations can be tossed out there

Heres a few things for research

NYC Subway map
the subway map shows you pretty much everything, as you can see JFK has connections and LGA doesnt. I dont recall the rate from LGA to the city in a cab, however its the most popular airport for the folks living in the city or those that commute into the city from an airport. Probably $50-60 to say penn station, just for reference.

Well i found round trip tickets from tampa to newark for 120 bucks a peice. I remember when i stayed in burlington new jersey a couple years ago, we basically hopped on the main train that took us past newark and dropped us right in penn station. We just have to find a hotel near that train station lol.
When I was traveling to NYC on business on a monthly basis, I would stay at the Courtyard at the Newark airport and take the Train in/out daily. I think it was a $7.00 roundtrip charge back then and took you to Madison Square Garden. Hotels in Jersey are less than half the cost of NYC.
