help needed: hotel over Easter

Hi Everyone, This is my first time posting on a forum, but I have booked flights to New York for me and my boyfriend between 7th and 11th of April, as a surprise 30th birthday present for him. I have been to New York twice before but he has never been. When i was there before i stayed at the Roosevelt and at the Hilton- New York, and liked them both. I am finding it extremely difficult to get anything around the same areas and the same quality for less than $350 a night, does anyone know any tricks that I am missing or websites with special deals? I don%26#39;t want to bid as I would like to know what i%26#39;m getting before I pay. Thanks ... Love this forum by the way!!!

help needed: hotel over Easter

Affinia.com is a group of suite hotels. A studio suite will have a kitchen and a sitting area. A 1 bedroom will have 2 separate rooms (sitting room and sep. bedroom). The only one of the group that%26#39;s not great (looking more than a little worn) is the Eastgate. If you like any of these, double check prices against quikbook.com (another good website). I see a few prices there (ie the Shelburne for a studio suite) that are cheaper than on the hotel%26#39;s site. The Affinia 50, the Shelburne and the Benjamin would be closest in location to the ones you%26#39;ve been to. The Dumont is the most recently renovated and gets very good reviews.

If you book something now that%26#39;s cancellable, you can also keep your eye on travelzoo.com closer to your trip to see if there are any specials.
