Default NEW YORK, NEW YORK! Help needed!

Ok looking for a city break to the big apple, in November for 3 adults & 4 kids.

Anyone have any positive & personal recommendations of where we can find the cheapest place??!! Somewhere relatively central to all the stuff, but round times square would be good.

As it is a big group, the cost needs to be low low low

Thought someone on here might be useful

It's a long shot, but sometimes the Sofitel near Times Square sometimes has deals, and it's a great hotel.

I stayed in the Doubletree Guest Suites by Hilton Honors (ridiculously long name) in February. It is on Time Square itself, opposite the TKTS booth. It cost us £450 each for 4 nights including flights, however I suspect it may be more in November as the tourists turn up for Christmas shopping.

I found my deal through Travelzoo.

Whenever I've gone (5 times now) I've done my research through Hotel.com, then phone the Hotel direct & booked it in person. I've always bettered the price that way.

Thanks, guys. After all the hotel will only be used for sleeping in so it doesnt have to be the Ritz
Any more advice/suggestion gratefully received

I'm staying here http://www.hiltonmanhattan.com/ at the end of Nov/Dec for 6 nights. Believe it or not it was one of the cheapest through Expedia that was flying with BA, price was £755pp (inc flights).

Jet2 do some cheap flights Nov/Dec, may make your trip cheaper.

Also get on skyscanner.net to route out bargain flights
