Find Hotels in New York (NY), United States

Stay as long as you can, and be sure to get the hell out of Midtown.

Finding a parking space is possible but it is very expensive and can be quite hard to find. The last two times, We bought an unlimited metro pass for the week, which includes both the trains and buses. We also rented a car so that we could drive out of the city into the mountains to see the beautiful fall colors. However, it took 1 1/2 hours to get 13 miles because of the massive traffic so the car stayed parked most of the time. The subway made my travels part of the experience, instead of a headache to endure. No trip would be complete without going to Grand Central Station, this renovated building is definately magnificent. We visited Central Park (over 800 acres) and Prospect Park (Brooklyn - over 400 acres). Both very beautiful and huge parks that give a wide variety of things to do and experiences to enjoy. I loved the horse & carriage ride, the pedicab tour and the time spent just walking through the parks. We enjoyed the waterfront parks and walked across the Brooklyn Bridge. We also attended a couple of Broadway shows. Take the boat to Liberty and Ellis Islands and enjoy learning about the history of the many immigrants to our country. I spent time researching and finding the passage documents for my grandparents and great grandparents who came from Europe. Take the train out to Coney Island and enjoy the beach, the amusement park and, of course, Nathans original hot dog restaurant. The shopping was fun and something for all different budgets. We ate somewhere new each night and had a wonderful variety of food available for every budget. However, the best part was the people. They were so friendly and every time that we even looked like we might not know where we were, there was magically someone there asking if they could help us.

Best to enjoy during Spring and fall

I would come back for a visit.

The City is complete with a variety of entertaiment criteria.

You will definitely enjoy your stay in New York.

the streets are littered with all kinds of garbages. they are something like a symbom of unkindness. I hate "NY". some sell "I LOVE NY" like T-shirts, and other stuff at the shops. I hate NY. dark and gloomy. people are unkind and rude everywhere.

Must see are Statue of Liberty, Central Park, Top of the ROck, Boat ride, Bus ride. Take a day trip to Washington DC or Factory Outlet.

other than that very fun to visit

We bought the 2-day pass and used it to many times in the 2 days.

But with the luxury of weeks, well head to the suburbs - Chelsea, Gramercy and south were the ones we enjoyed most, in the brief time we had there. Next time we'd take an apartment down that way and stay at least 2 weeks...SO much to do, and not all shopping (out of kilter for those from the southern hemisphere anyway).

Fun to see most of the New York stereotypes are completely accurate. It's just like on TV!

a must have visit in your life.

But of course it is very fast paced, what else would you expect? You need to keep up with the rhythm of the city to enjoy it.

They have beautiful attractions, theater and museums. The only thing I really don't like about NYC is the subways. They're dirty and outdated...

No matter morning or night. Go for the cruise is the best where you can enjoy a great look on all those famous building and liberty statue.
