which Hilton is $200 a night?? Again if you payed the $850 a night price then I am all for you being underwhelmed for 30k UR to get a base room that is 600 sq feet in NYC is an amazing value. Plus the location and they are one of few NYC hotels to have a pool.

not to mention the upgrades that most here get. And the free kosher for Passover breakfast they got me which costed them way over $100

In July Wyndham is $240 millennium at the un is 270 doubletree is 190 Lexington is 225
Shop around
Again ph is probably nicer than all these , but at these prices I personally wouldn’t waste points for such an experience

so you would rather spend $250 (average price of all the hotels that you listed one of them being a doubletree including tax) then pay $275 to buy a sign up night or use 30k UR which are super easy to get to stay in a room that is much nicer, double the size, and in a hotel that you agreed is nicer and has a pool.

That makes a lot of sense.

Agree on the SUN part 30 k ur ? Not so much

Both helpful. I’ve stayed in PH Dubai, so I won’t expect that level of service in NyC. I care more about the space, and I’m glad to hear it should be ample. What’s my chance of getting them to provide room with two beds instead of a king?

Without knowing what status you have with hyatt & your chances of an upgrade if you do end up in a basic room, they are pretty small. They may be considered big for nyc as @mochjas said but that’s not saying much.

I have lowly Discoverist, but even that expires this month. So, no status. ☹️

I used a SUN there & I had discoverist, the room I got would not fit 2 adults & 2 teens, unless you’re down for a real cozy sleepover type of experience. Maybe you could put one cot in the room & the other in the bathroom or the entrance way but it’s the type you’ll be stepping over cots to get around the room, I think you get the picture. Try your luck maybe you’ll be able to get them to confirm an upgrade for you.

Using SUN next week for PH in NYC is there any way to upgrade to a suite with points? and is there an option of bringing me kosher food?

St Regis is really nice. Not discussing value, but elegance to the max.

Any better choice than Grand Hyatt? PH is not available. Needs to be Hyatt.

Hello. Can anyone recommend a NYC hotel within 100-200 dollar range. 3 adults? 1 night. Thank you!

Besides the PH, Did anyone have success getting a NYC hotel to order AND PAYfor kosher breakfast?

P.S. I'm getting sick of the response "Our concierge will gladly assist you in ordering or making a reservation..."

you do realize that the hotels are not obligated to give you free kosher breakfast. It is a nice thing that some do. That being said the Andaz 5th gives free kosher breakfast to globalists
