Planning on taking my wife to NYC for a long weekend and am looking for hotel recommendations as well as things to see and do and places to eat while in NYC.

Petyer Luger Steakhouse in Brooklyn
Natural History Mueseum

I stayed at Park Central (great location right between Central Park and Times Square (7th and 56th)

Not sure where to stay since I just crashed at my buddy's when I was there.

But I said it on a previous thread, and I'll say it again because it bears repeating...

Crocodile Lounge has the BEST drink special EVER! For EVERY beer you order...they give you a free pizza. Not a slice...a whole pizza!

East 14th St...between 1st Ave and 2nd Ave. You will NOT be disappointed.

Holy shit dude!

I stayed at Hotel Mela, pretty nice place, right by Times Square.

I try to combine one trip to the home office in CT each year with a stay in NYC with Lady D'Friskies. We've really enjoyed the Iroquois Hotel just north of Times Square.

Hotel Edison is great
right off times sq
I also like the Travel Inn
As soon as you get through the Lincoln Tunnel it's on the left (free parking)

This is where we stay when we visit. We love it.

I stayed at the hotel edison as well. it really is 30 seconds off of times square, and it has a great classic hotel feel.

Thanks for great advice so far!
