Travel Forum / Destinations / USA and Canada / October 2004In Brooklyn, New York for New Years..anywhere descent and cheap??
Hello, I am flying to New York on Dec. 27th and would like to stay in Brooklyn. I am there till Jan 13th. I have searched the internet high and dry, and everything is either crap, or extremely expensive. I am a budget travel and would like to have my own room and bed, plus my girlfriend lives there and will be staying with me for most nights. Does anybody know anything descent from experience? Im sure that there must be places that dont advertise on the net, but do exist. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Brooklyn, while an interesting borough of New York City well worth visiting, is not a travel mecca. Brooklyn simply is not a destination in and of itself for tourists. Manhattan is where they want to be. Thus Brooklyn does not have many hotels and other than a luxury hotel in downtown Brooklyn they are not attractive accomodations. There are a few interesting B and B's in the Park Slope area of Brooklyn, and they are quite pricey though charming. You most probably have turned up all there are in your Internet search. > >Hello, > > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > are quite pricey though charming.

The only hotel I can think of is the Marriott (in the "downtown" area near the Fulton Mall). I don't know what the rates are, but I think they tend to cater more often to business travelers, so I doubt they're in a "budgtet" sort of range. > > On Tue, 26 Oct 2004 14:13:14 +0000, eoyn2004 > > <member30831@british_expats.com> [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > they tend to cater more often to business travelers, so I doubt > they're in a "budgtet" sort of range. No to mention that the New Years Eve period is probably the single most expensive and crowded time to stay anywhere in New York City. |
