"My daughter (10yo) and I chose the bunk beds for her first NYC adventure. I was skeptical at first, but these were some of the most comfy beds I've slept on in a hotel! The room was perfect, no unnecessary frills, just the essentials. Everything was clean, the lounge/bar areas were nice little bonuses. ..."

"A basic hotel with basic rooms for a reasonable price in midtown Manhattan. No frills, rooms are very basic, staffing is not lavish, but it functions well. I had problems with payment caused by inadequate staff training with their financial systems but that won’t necessarily happen to others."

How can I get cheap hotels in New York?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in New York

If you're looking to travel to New York on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $132. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $265.
If it's your first time in New York, you'll probably want to stay at least 5 days. 3 days is enough to see most of the top spots, however, so that may be ideal if you're looking to save. With all that in mind, even spending 1 day in New York can be an adventure if you're situated in Manhattan.
It's always a good idea to book in advance, but if you're looking to save, you won't want to book more than 3 weeks in advance, generally speaking. New York hotels often guess at their future prices and overestimate to be safe, so you could be paying more than you need to if you book a month or more ahead of time. Some deals may be available close to your arrival date, but booking particularly late can be risky because it's easy for the hotel to simply run out of availability.
Finding cheap hotels in New York means booking your stay in the right neighborhood. Outside of Manhattan tends to be cheaper, as you can see with Monti Hotel in the Bronx. Even so, Manhattan still has some affordable options, such as Pod Times Square, which puts you just 6 minutes away from Times Square on foot.
Search filters make finding the top cheapest hotels in New York easier than ever. You can input search filters for a wide variety of features, including amenities, star rating, and proximity to certain attractions. For example, if you want cheap hotel deals in New York but also want to be close to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, you can sort your results by proximity to the museum.

All pro hotel

"Hot water on the 19th floor...no problem. Great little room with good bath, tv, windows, lights...everything worked and was nice and clean too. Front desk and security people were friendly and that was refreshing. Also, was here for a concert at MSG, Maneskin, so the hotel location could not be beat."
