A house car is available, free of charge although tipping is recommended, for up to 10 blocks. I took it for 2 avenues.

Even a regular suite is awesome.
Went for our anniversary and we got 2 bottles of champagne (1 kosher, 1 not :D)
Plus $75 diamond brekkie credit.
where did you use the breakfast credit?

I am looking for a nyc night getaway in the end of January with SPG or Chase UR points.
I would like to stay in a nice hotel and for under 15000 points. Any ideas of what the best way about it and place to stay?



Thanks

You'd be surprised, but very few nice hotels in NYC. Very disappointing for a city that prints tourist dollars

I'm quite a fan of the Andaz 5th.

Andaz 5th Ave can be OK but the SPG properties are a disaster

What makes the Andaz just OK? I find it to be excellent.
SPG is a disaster though.

if you are looking for spacious rooms then that's not an option either.
How about the Sheraton Lincoln harbour not as sleek as the w but rooms are much bigger.

Ha... you don't see what ironic with that question?

Anyway, you don't. At least not directly. And not without a big haircut.
