New York is known to be the city with some of the most expensive hotels in the world and I don’t mean only exclusive ones. All hotels are pricy in New York and you must be prepared to pay very much if you are looking for an accommodation in here. Hostel style hotels will take you as much as $50 for the night and those are not considered to be very much comfy or fantastic. If you are looking for something a bit better, then you can go to some of the budget hotels where you can get a not so great room with shared bath for somewhere around $100-200.
It’s not ending there, mid-range hotels with restaurants and room service and somewhat decent rooms will take you as much as $250-350 for the night and you must keep in mind that all the offers that New York hotels put out are without taxes so you will have to add more to those prices and then come to the real number you will be paying. And if you want to go to some of the high-end hotels then you should be prepared to pay astronomical fees. If you take some of the cheaper rooms then you must be prepared for a room that will have nothing more than a bed, tv and a window. And if you go to some of those budget hotels then you should also be prepared to share it with hourly visitors that come there to be loud.
Good alternative to staying there would be to go Queens or Long Island City where you will find lodgings for much lesser money and you will not have to take long rides to the city. You should definitively avoid going to New Jersey as there are problems with transportation to New York from there and you might get stuck in the traffic or even without a train as they don’t go by night. Of course, the best alternative to staying in the hotel would be to find someone you already know in New York and stay with them as that will save you incredible amount of money. And taking out your cousin of a friend to dinner to show gratitude will be much better than paying hundreds and hundreds of dollars for accommodations. Also that way you will get to see New York from its real side, as one of the genuine people who live there.
