Where can I find cheap hotels in New York City?

Listen up, rubbaneck.. there is no such thing as a cheap hotel in New York City. Besides, what does "cheap" mean? If you're a working class stiff living paycheck to paycheck, then cheap can mean 50 clams a night and if you're part of the ever shrinking middle class, that may mean a buck fifty. Of course, if you're wealthy, you wouldn't ask at all.

Let me bottom line it for you... you get what you pay for in New York City. Nice hotels are not cheap. Hotels during a holiday are not cheap. Hotels in Times Square are, you guessed it, not cheap! That doesn't mean that you can't find a decent deal if you use your melon. 

The first mistake tourists routinely make is thinking they need to stay in Times Square. If you wanna throw your money away, feel free to skip the rest of this. If you read my groundbreaking expose, "There's More to NY Than Just Times Square" then you already know that Times Square is just a small piece of the pie. You can still be centrally located and a hop skip away from that corporate habitat you are so smitten with, from the majority of Midtown. Do yourself a solid and focus your attention to hotels located above 8th Ave. or below 6th Ave. and streets below 34th St. or above 50th St. You'll save bucks and still be centralized. And if you really wanna save some scratch. avoid Manhattan completely! Before you ask, yep... I covered that as well right here

So, where do I actually do the booking? How can I get the best deal? The reality is, most of the popular hotel booking websites claim to offer the best rates, but they rely on you to disprove this by bringing them the cheaper rate from another claimimg the same. Once you start poking around, you'll find some pretty friggin' big discrepancies for the same room in the same hotel on the same dates. It can really make you gun shy and what happens when you're afraid to pull the trigger? You end up compromising or paying more at the last minute.

Whenever someone asks me where I can find a good deal on a New York City hotel, I point them to a hotel comparison site that, you guessed it again, scours the web and compares rates from all the major players as well as the little guys. It's completely free to use and in one quick search allows you to compare what every online provider is charging for the same room. It will literally list the results right on top of each other, so you're guaranteed to get the best published rates. That is of course, assuming you're not a dumbass and don't pick the more expensive one. Best of all, once you choose the lowest price, you can click directly to the website offering it and book it right online!
