New York is a distillation of experiences: Manhattan, Broadway, world-class museums, and neighborhoods that each live a life of their own. Hotels here are expensive year-round, which is exactly why club rates turn a pricey trip into a smart investment in memories.
Why it pays to book through the club
In Manhattan even a modest 4-star room costs as much as a suite in another city — the price of every square foot shows up in the rate. The club unlocks wholesale rates on hotels in the center, so you save where the open market overcharges the most.
For example: 4 nights at a 4-star hotel in Midtown retails at around $1,880. Through the club the same room is $1,260. That is $620 saved on the booking — money better spent on dinner with a skyline view than on the same room at the open rate.
What to see
- Times Square and Broadway — the heart of the city and its evening musicals
- Central Park — 340 hectares of green in the middle of Manhattan
- Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island — the ferry from Battery Park
- The Met and MoMA — the city's two great art collections
- Top of the Rock and Edge — the best views of the Empire State and the Hudson
- Brooklyn Bridge and DUMBO — a walk with postcard views
When to go
The most pleasant seasons are April to June and September to November: mild weather and the city at its best. December is magical thanks to the holiday lights, but prices peak; summer is hot and crowded, though it brings plenty of free open-air events.
New York is worth every dollar — but overpaying for the hotel is optional. Get access to club rates and plan your trip.
