Any good cheap hotels in NY city?

[howitts_done]

Hello everyone:

I am planning on going to NY city August 2nd to 6th with my g/f for a little vacation. We just booked our flights from Buffalo to JFK on JetBlue for $254.60 USD roundtrip! :bana I wish it was that cheap to fly within Canada :loco

Can someone recommend any hotels to stay at for less than $200 a night near Central Park (Upper East or West side)?

Thanks

Near Central Park - as in Manhattan? Good luck finding anything cheap. The hotels there are way more expensive than in Toronto.

Yes Manhattan. There are places under $200 a night but I was hoping some members could recommend some places to stay.

The Hotel New Yorker is where I stayed. A few blocks away from Maddison Sqaure Garden and close to everything. I paid around $200/night.

The Helmsley Park Lane has a Superior Room with a city view for $158US a night. I stayed at one of their hotels (but a little further south, righ across the street the from Kaballah Centre) the last time I was in NYC, it was pretty good.

A colleague of mine went here last summer and was impressed. He paid just under $200/night US but that was for a large suite

I just booked the Belleclaire Hotel (http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d93390-Reviews-Belleclaire_Hotel-New_York_City_New_York.html). It had decent reviews and was really cheap. $555USD for 4 nights shared bathroom and queen bed.

Thanks for you input and I'll let everyone know how it was.
