New York Hotels are always in demand, and this keeps rates for accommodations in New York City high. In order to get the best deal possible, you will need to plan your trip well in advance, and perhaps consider a New York neighborhood rather than the downtown theater area.

Parking is also very limited in New York City, and parking in a hotel lot will run over $25/day. So plan your visit around public transportation and taxis instead of your car.
To get the best rates, ask about corporate rates, discounts, and packages. Sometimes you can save 10% off the hotel rate.
Most hotel rooms are small, and older hotels which are high rises sometimes have poor water pressure. You may want to forego that view for a better morning shower.
Don’t forget to plan for New York hotel taxes which are 13.6% New York State Tax, and a $2 New York City hotel Room Occupancy tax.
