Questions

Questions travelers ask about New York

Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable weather for walking the city. December is popular for the holiday lights, and January and February are quieter, with easier restaurant and theater reservations.

Three to five days allows time for a few neighborhoods, one or two major museums and a couple of evenings at the theater. We plan each day around one part of the city to cut down on travel time.

Midtown is convenient for theaters and first-time visitors, the Upper East and West Sides are quieter and close to Central Park and the museums, and downtown neighborhoods such as SoHo and Tribeca suit travelers who like boutiques and dining. We match the hotel to your plans.

Metro-North trains run from New Haven and Bridgeport to Grand Central Terminal, which is often easier than driving and parking. We can also arrange a private car service door to door.
