Question #1

What area of New York City do you prefer?

* New York City hotels are concentrated in Midtown Manhattan. Midtown also has the highest concentration of tourist-frequented attractions, such as Times Square, Broadway theater, and the Empire State Building. The Jacob Javits Center is in Midtown West, and Grand Central Terminal is in Midtown East. The Upper West Side and the Upper East Side flank Central Park, where outdoor activities reign. The Financial District is home to Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange, and the ferries to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. In between, New York City hotels in quirky neighborhoods like Chelsea, Greenwich Village and Soho offer unique and authentic experiences.
