Where To Stay
Before I launch on a list of New York City hotels that could interest you, first, I have to warn you that what's termed as "affordable" in New York City may not be "affordable" in your vocabulary. So if you're cash strapped, better check first if you've got some friends living in New York City who'd lend you a room for a week or two as you go sight-seeing.New York is a city of high rise towers and a number of those are hotels that you can take your pick of. These buildings range from the five star hotels to the funky ones to hotels with "affordable" packages.

Hilton Time Square
Never mind Paris Hilton and her notorious antics. At least her family still hasn't stopped in being one of the best when you're talking about hotel services. The Hilton Time Square is one of the poshest hotels in New York City, with a twenty-five-seater theater and even its own wax museum! And just because it's posh, don't assume that the staff would turn its nose up on noisy, bratty kids or dirty, scrambling house pets. Nuh-uh! The Hilton Time Square aims to please all forms of guests, human and non human, adult and kids. Have Fun!
So now, all you need to do is choose which hotel you're going to stay, pay the bill, enjoy the scenery and of course, tour New York City! Your New York Travel Tips
