New York Hotel

We are visting New York for 5 days in April and need to find an Hotel, preferably central, with rooms near the ground. My wife is claustrophobic so will not travel in lifts. Windows must be able to be opened as well!!



5 or 4 star.

Most if not all hotels especially of 4-5* calibre will have elevators and doubt any have rooms on main level/floor...have you considered a B %26amp; B?....there are many wonderful ones located in brownstones that would be airy and a short walk-up a flight or 2 ..you can plug in B%26amp;B for a search and many will come up. After researching a few for amenities/location, you can always re-post with your choices for opinions:)

I thought I%26#39;d answered this before but my post seems to have disappeared.





the Giraffe hotel is known for service. Many of their rooms have small juliet balconies so windows that open are actually doors. have a look.

The other idea is to stay in a guesthouse/inn without an elevator. Wymanhouse.com

are some of the nicer ones.





Do you realize stars are about amenities (business center, fitness center, restaurant etc.) and NOT ';niceness';? Some 3* places are nicer than some 4* places. So when you ask for 4 or 5 *, it%26#39;s the bigger places with lots of bells and whistles. Most of these are big and the lower floors are used for ballrooms, conference rooms etc. since they save the upper floors for rooms (with views).
