if you were coming to NYC...
 

where would you stay?

We're starting to plan our big NYC event. I'm so excited... the dates are Sept 19th and 20th. :)

Last year we had everyone stay in Times Square, very close to the parties.

But I have so many hotels to choose from, in so many neighborhoods... I'm wondering where everyone would like to stay most? Any thoughts?

And another question, would you mind having to travel a bit to get to the party? Cab rides are cheap and easy and you'd get to see more of the city.

Your room. :Graucho

On Escort's couch.

:glugglug

I thought it was gonna be at my parents' house in Connecticut?

hehe

Meet me at the bar to celebrate my birthday. (9/21)

I think that's where we're having the Sunday afternoon porn shoot.... we're looking into luxury bus rides to CT.

But I'm still negotiating... your mom is a tough one.

There is a little very cheap hotel on East 17th Street between 4th and 5th avenue. The hotel is called Hotel 17. It's nothing fancy as
it's a very cheap hotel but the rooms have character. A number of
good old cult films have shot there motel scenes.

Check it out...or give them a ring. The guy who runs the place his
name is Jamey

DynaMite :2 cents:

i think i will sleep riding the subway all night,

hi NINA!

wow...thats my birthday....birthday in NYC....

thanks, I'll definitely check it out.


I've found some really nice cheap rooms so far... but some are kind of uptown, so that's why I'm wondering about location as well.

i've been to NYC three times. and each time, i've stayed in mid-town. the paramount, and two W hotels.

is there anything near NYU? i really like that area...

What did you think of the Paramount? I didn't like it at all.

The rooms were just like the Mondrian...but way smaller.

This is cool spot, it's right off from Broadway and 5 minutes
walking from Soho. Lots of bars restaurants there aswell.

The best place for people coming in from out of town is Times Square. The hotels are affordable , Easy to get find a cab or get around. Lot's of things to see. Lace the strip club is in walking distance and the girls are hot. They even do blowjobs in the VIP !

in a word - tiny. and because we don't dress in suits, we had trouble getting into the whiskey bar until we proved we were in the hotel. lame.

the next time i'm there i'd rather stay somewhere away from times square...

That's where I went to school :)

That's actually a great idea... I think people would love being in that area. I'll have to check out the hotels and see what's available.

Try the Royalton.....It is another Stark designed Schraeger hotel, but much larger rooms and about the same price.

And they didn't seem to care that I dressed like a bum.

Morton St Suites...costly tho i think.

I totally hear that... but it might be nice to check out another part of Manhattan. Everyone always comes in to Time Square.

but but...where will I do shopping? :(

i stay with my bro....

If you have enough subway tokens you can always bring your sleeping bag :1orglaugh

and and i want to screw some puerto ricans..

NYU area! :)

go down to the Soho area this time you'll love walking around there in the morning with all those beauties.... :Graucho

uptown, washington heights, harlem, the bronx :thumbsup

me too snuggglin next to u.....This would make a nice New York deli sandwich:Graucho

You can always contact The Hudson for a group deal of $140 per room.

Downtown there's only the W on 16th 'n Union Square E. which might cut a deal or The Tribeca Grand and Soho Grand (both cost too much for a group deal). There's also that Holiday Inn on Houston which should work out to $109 or so.

There's also the Gramercy Park Hotel which has a great price and also has free high speed access. The bar is cool too but not ultra 'black clothes and shades hip.'

Back in Times Square there's the new hotels on 42nd between 7th and 8th which will cut a hell of a group deal.

What I really suggest is putting everyone in The Time Hotel on 49th 7/8th. The rooms are a good size and the bar is really cool. The hotel is owned by a dude named Vikram who is an international playboy so he lets models stay there for next to nothing which causes a lot of them to be there decorating the place. If YOU call and tell them about your event I'm sure they will work out something special for you.

Work out 2 deals, one for people who want to save a bit and one for people who don't want to spend a ton but still want to live it up a bit.

Sleep in Central Park its free.
And its safe, too.

so... you're not an 'uptown girl'.

if tim comes... he'll probably want to stay in chelsea (sp?) ;)

Yonkers

Good info, thanks. I knew you'd come through for me.

I'm calling around today, The Hudson was first on my list. I'll add the others.

Your suggestion about the 2 deals leads me to my next question.... is it important to have everyone stay at the same hotel? I don't think it is, but I'd love to hear what other people think.

I know a group of 3 hotels all in different areas, each a different style and all inexpensive but very nice. I was thinking about calling them for a group rate but asking if people could chose any one of the 3.

Anywhere but the Pennsylvania Hotel.... 160/night for the worse rooms I've ever slept in. Made Motel 8 look like a palace.

I don't think it totally matters whether people stay in the same hotel here. Although if you find a hotel with a great common area/bar it would seem very convention like which is cool. You know at the start of the day and end of the night folks like to mill around together and shoot the shit while people watching. That's why I suggested The Time. Of course the old standbys The Marriott Marquis and The Sheraton NY are great spots for that. Some of these NY hotels will make people uncomfortable because they are over the top.

high speed internet is very important for some

Whats up every body. Im from philly and we have some amazing hotels in the city. I mean NY is a nutty place. And by the way what convention or whatever this is, WHAT IS IT? im trying to roll up. Blaze a few blunts with some nice porn slangers like myself. Hit me back up..

My suggestion as well to anyone that likes a nice modern touch.
the [W] hotel is one of the best ones out here in NYC. i love it.

translation = I like college chicks


:thumbsup :thumbsup

Amen

with my hotel experiences I'll probally end up in a box in the ally

Nina contact me i have a couple of friends that own night clubs that would love to host parties if your interested

Mike who do you know, and what clubs?

so does that mean you're coming?

Yea Royalton is great. I like downtown SOho area more though. SOho grand is cool. isn't there a new hotel doen that way now that is supposed to be fun? W is fun too.

What wrong with the rooms?
is this what they look like? http://media.expedia.com/hotels/1000...12887_12_b.jpg
