Saving money in New York? book during NYC hotel week

NYC Hotel Week is part of NYC Winter Outing, New York City Tourism + Conventions' annual winter program, which also includes offerings for the NYC Restaurant Week, 2×1 tickets for NYC Broadway Week and NYC Must-See Week with many attractions, museums, tours and shows from Jan. 16 to Feb. 4. Reservations for NYC Restaurant Week, NYC Broadway Week and NYC Must-See Week will open Jan. 9 at nyctourism.com.

With these initiatives, the Big Apple seeks to attract more tourists during the off-season. After the Christmas holidays and before spring, aided by the often harsh weather, efforts are made through these initiatives to persuade tourists to brave the cold and travel to NYC.

When will the NYC Hotel Week in 2024

Reservations are open at nyctourism.com/hotelweek.  From Jan. 3 to Feb. 4, 2024, travelers can take advantage of discounts of up to 24% on standard rates at 150 hotels throughout New York City.

Participating signs include many hotels from major chains such as Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt and many others.

Among the hotels participating in the promotion, I have already visited some of them such as the Moxy Downtown, the Ace Hotel Brooklyn, Conrad New York Downtown, Hotel Indigo Flushing, Hyatt Regency JFK Airport at Resorts World, Le Meridien New York Fifth Avenue, Luma Hotel Times Square, Margaritaville Resort Times Square, Moxy Williamsburg, New York Marriott Marquis, W Times Square, and others.

"The opening of reservations for NYC Hotel Week marks the countdown to our NYC Winter Outing program, which combines all travelers' favorite activities through initiatives such as NYC Restaurant Week®, NYC Broadway WeekSM and NYC Must- See WeekSM.Whether planning a trip or gifting New York for Christmas, these programs are perfect for discovering the best of the city in winter," he concluded.
