New York can divided into several districts and these districts usually determine the range of hotel fees you're going to encounter.Do you want your hotel to be situated in Manhattan, where most New York attractions can be found?

How much can you afford?
Now that we've got a specific location in mind, the next step to take is to count our available dollars. Hotels in New York range from the exorbitant to the wonderfully cheap.Naturally, the features are somewhat dependent on the price.
Who are you with?
If you're bringing kids, then not all hotels in New York can of course, open their doors to welcome you.I can suggest hotels like the Doubletree Guest Suites and the Hilton Time Square, hotels that are both famous for reliable, warm and efficient service.
And then there are the pets. If you're the type to bring around your Dalmatian or Siamese with you wherever you go, then the lists of prospective hotels in New York that you can stay on would narrow further.
For travelers accompanied by their furry friends, try checking out hotels like 70 Park Avenue Hotel and Carlyle Hotel, which even offers dog-walking services just in case you find yourself busy touring New York City.
