New York… Virgin Holidays Style

LONDON, July 23, 2010 - New York is a vibrant city with a mountain of sights to see and things to
do and that's why picking a hotel can make or break your New York break.
Virgin Holidays know the best places in terms of location and value for money
to ensure that our guests get the most out of the 'Big Apple'.

The Comfort Inn Manhattan (www.virginholidays.co.uk/brochures/usa/holidays/new_york/new_york/comfort_inn_manhattan/)
boasts a central Midtown location close to the Empire
State building and Macy's. Guests also receive a free breakfast, which is
vital preparation for a day out in the bustling city and free wireless
internet to help plan activities and entertainment. The Westin New York
(www.virginholidays.co.uk/brochures/usa/holidays/new_york/new_york/comfort_inn_manhattan/)
in Times Square is a gorgeous hotel that exudes luxury
and calm in such a busy location. The hotel is connected to a massive
multiplex which features 13 cinema screens, shops, bars and restaurants. The
hotel itself contains a steakhouse, bar, fitness centre and spa making it a
brilliant base to come back to after a long day visiting tourist attractions
or shopping.

For a quieter location Virgin Holidays recommends Hotel Beacon New York
(www.virginholidays.co.uk/brochures/usa/holidays/new_york/new_york/hotel_beacon_and_apartments/)
and Apartments located in the Upper West Side.
These tastefully decorated rooms and apartments have their own kitchenette
which allow guests to make small meals if they should wish to. Broadway is a
short bus or subway ride away making it a great location for those who plan
on watching shows during their stay. The Lincoln Center and Central park are
also a short walk away perfect for those who love a morning stroll or jog,
the park is particularly beautiful during the autumn or 'fall' as the
Americans call it!

For those travellers who revel in buzzing environments the perfectly
located Grand Hyatt New York (www.virginholidays.co.uk/brochures/usa/holidays/new_york/new_york/grand_hyatt/)
is the place to stay. The hotel features a breathtaking atrium and
some excellent places to dine and visit for a drink. The gorgeous Grand
Central Terminal station is close by and worth a visit just to experience the
pulse of this lively area.
