Closer to ABC Studios at Lincoln Center?

Hi all,

Trying to figure out which hotel is closer to ABC studios at Lincoln center (Live with Regis and Kelly). We currently have On The Ave ( B%26#39;way and 77th)reserved, but it looks to me like Holiday Inn Midtown (9th and 57th) would be closer walking distance. Am I right? Have to be in line for show by 6:45 am...so closer the better.

Closer to ABC Studios at Lincoln Center?

The studio is on 66th between Central Park West and Columbus. The two hotels are almost equidistant from the studio; if the Holiday Inn has aslight advantage, it is just a matter of a few feet.

GWB,

Holiday Inn is $50.00 cheaper...stayed there before and it was fine. It also has a 12pm check out time, versus 11am at On The Ave, thought it might be easier than trying to run back to the hotel after the show, this way we know we could make it. I guess I just answered my own question, lol.

Thanks.

One other thought, though -- public transportation is easier to the On the Ave, as the #1 train stops at 66th and Broadway and also 79th and Broadway, while there is no subway station closer to the Holiday Inn than Columbus Circle. Nevertheless, even if you don%26#39;t take the subway, the walking distance in either case will not be more than 2/3 of a mile -- and you might be able to get a cab, too, which would nto be that expensive split between two people.

GWB,

No need for subway..we will be hoofing it or taking a cab.

I did change the rezzie to the Holiday Inn.

Thanks for the help.

Not sure if this matters or not but the 77th/Bway is more of a neighborhood whereas 57th and 9th is kind of the upper end of Hell%26#39;s Kitchen - an area that is definetly getting better but not really the best ';neighborhood'; looks wise. Safety wise it%26#39;s fine. With that said, Time Warner bldg at Columbus Circle is only a couple of blocks away if you stay down there and you could walk past that and up Columbus (a nice walk) to the show. Columbus Ave by the show is a nice block with great shops, restaurants etc.
