New York City Hotel Deals

Omni Berkshire Place Hotel in New York is a beautiful 4 star hotel. It is a great choice for those on business and for travelers who want to stay in luxury during their visit to the biggest city in the US.

Omni Berkshire Place has all of the amenities that you expect from a four star hotel in New York. Here’s a shortlist:

1. Cable TV.
2. Room Service.
3. AC.
4. Beauty Center.
5. Fitness Room.
6. Bar.
7. Business Center.
8. Security Guard.
9. Multilingual Staff.
10. Concierge.

The building itself is beautiful especially at night with all of the lights on. And of course the rooms are decorated luxuriously. But what is really great about this hotel in my opinion is not what it looks like outside or how nice it is inside but where it is located. After all; I hope you’re not planning on spending your trip to NYC inside your hotel!

Omni Berkshire Place is on East 52nd St. between Madison Avenue and 5th Avenue and that places it near many “points of interest”. What follows is a shortlist of what is within a very short walk of the hotel:

1. 5th Avenue Shopping.
2. Radio City Music Hall.
3. Museum of Arts & Design.
4. American Folk Art Museum.
5. Metro Stations.

As you have probably already guessed a 4 star luxury hotel in such a great location in New York is not cheap. As of this writing the most inexpensive room I can find at the NYC Hotel Deals site is $500/room. Rates do change depending on the day and the season but you are very unlikely to find a room in a hotel of this caliber for a low price in Manhattan. In this very expensive city even the two star discount hotels are usually over $200/night.

For those who plan on doing a lot of touristy things, the New York Pass is a great way to save some cash. It allows you to take part in over 50 tourist activities for one low fee. It can also save you a lot of time because it lets you cut in line as well.

Pet Friendly Hotels In NYC

New York Hotel Deals

If you are someone who takes your dog with you everywhere and you’re planning a stay in New York City then you need to know which NYC hotels your dog will be welcomed at. That is where this article comes in handy. Here you find pet friendly hotels in New York City ranging from two star discount hotels like the Holiday Inn Express over in Brooklyn to five star hotels like The Waldorf Towers in the heart of Manhattan.

Trump International Hotel. While Donald Trump has made himself into a national joke as a 2012 presidential candidate, he does still have this fabulous 5 star luxury hotel overlooking Central Park. As you might have surmised: It is not cheap to stay the night here. Expect to pay at least $600/night for a room.

Holiday Inn Express. This discount hotel in Brooklyn is a great choice for someone who is planning on spending most of their time in Brooklyn or who wants to save some money and wants to take a train into “the city.” You can take the subway and be in Manhattan in about 5 minutes.
 
The Waldorf Towers. As of this moment, The Waldorf Towers is the most expensive pet friendly hotel in Manhattan. Considering its prime location near Rockefeller Center and the luxury it boasts it’s not surprising that it costs such a huge amount to spend the night here.

Millennium Hilton Hotel. This 4 star hotel located on Church Street in lower Manhattan is an excellent place to stay for those on vacation and those visiting New York for business reasons. The rooms here can actually be surprisingly inexpensive. 

The Howard Johnson Inn Jamaica Airport is located about one mile from JFK and may be the right choice for anyone who is visiting Queens or Brooklyn more than Manhattan. And because it is so far from Manhattan, it’s quite a discount.

The Carlton Hotel is a four star luxury hotel located on Madison Avenue between 28th and 29th Streets. Like all of the hotels in this article, it’s pet friendly.
