I went to New York, New York for the first time during the last week of March. I really enjoyed it, but I'm still paying it off! Too many shops led to far too much bending of the old plastic. Don't go there if you can't control your spending :-) The whole of 5th Avenue is just far too dangerous ;-) First we stayed in a hotel on 57th street called The Washington Jefferson, but it was a horrible dump. We booked it over the internet so we didnt really get much of an idea about it, and at $99 a night (for a single room), it was the cheapest would could find. We didnt stay there long and soon moved a bit further up town and found a great place called The Salisbury Hotel just opposite Planet Hollywood. That was infinately better!!! I recommend that hotel to anyone - it costs a bit more but the difference is amazing. Entertainment wise theres loads to do, far too much for a week. But as I said, its expensive, so you might find yourself doing it in a few trips (I hope to go back again next year). Expect to queue for the bigger attractions such as the Statue of Liberty, or the Empire State Building, but they're worth it. Waste of time travelling all that way then not going there, right? :-) Times Square and Broadway have to be seen to be believed. I was just in awe of how busy they both are. It certainly is the city that never sleeps.
