To begin with, when I first began haunting this sight I read a post from someone ( don%26#39;t remember name ) who suggested something to the effect that it was possible to %26#39;over%26#39; search hotel choices. I thought maybe so... but that wouldn%26#39;t be my plight. I should have bitten my tongue!! I won%26#39;t even confess the number of hours! So please help. I have managed to steal two nights from other stops on our vacation so that we now have 5 in NYC in mid June. We ditched the car idea and are taking the train and know we will probably take a cab to which ever hotel we select. I have narrowed it down to 3, and actually decided to maybe try them each, but that was a late night musing. #1 The Barclay, because as Ambassador members we should get an upgrade and with an eligible discount the room is about 200 per night. #2 Sheraton hotel and towers, also prefered members and with discount a club room is also about 200. per night. #3 Affina 50 because of reviews and kitchenette, but 270. per night. Please supply your very valuable input! Many thanks in advance!!

As a New Yorker, I can%26#39;t comment on the guest rooms or hotel services, but just on the location. The Intercontinental and Affinia 50 are right near each other, both on the east side. The Sheraton is on 7th Ave. Based on location, I%26#39;d go with the Sheraton. It%26#39;s closer to Central Park, Columbus Circle, the upper west side, and the theaters. I have a suspicion that the other two hotels are better reviewed though. And, it sure would be nice to have a kitchenette! Tough choice, but you won%26#39;t go wrong with whatever you choose.

The person to which you speak, must be me. I have been laying low. Figured I was bugging the locals way too much on what the ideal hotel.
This is what I did. I have four reservations for June that I can cancel, just like you. I have documented them well, so that I can cancel a few days ahead. I am reading the posts and reviews, so that I can zero in on what works best for us. You know best what works for you, ie. location, service, cleanliness, etc.
I have taken full circle. I have reservations right now at Algonquin (per local recommendation), Warwick, Novotel, and Belvedere. I have already canceled the Hilton Times Square -- too ';fish bowl';. I am about to cancel the Novotel (too convention) and the Warwick (not so good reviews lately). I will decide later between Algonquin and Belvedere. Believe it or not, Belvedere sounds pretty good for the cost.
Yes, . . you can over research. But, . . .give it a rest for a couple of weeks. Later the right one will feel comfortable.
Yes Runfar82 the post was in relation to you, the statement being offered by NYWhiz. Analysis paralysis... sage advice! I will sit on my reses until one %26#39;hatches%26#39; .
