NYC travel deals you won’t want to miss

Oops. It’s already August and you haven’t made plans to get away before the summer is over. It may seem counterintuitive to hit New York City during the dog days, but this is when New Yorkers have skedaddled, and many of the trendy and newly renovated hotels offer enticing packages. Rooms in these upscale establishments usually cost north of $500 per night, but you can score one for less than $300 in late summer, with perks — like complimentary meals, drinks and tickets to local attractions — that sweeten the deal.

Note: Many of the “starting rates” quoted are for Sunday nights, when a good number of hotels reduce room rates as much as 50 percent. And rates quoted are pretax, so be sure to add 15 percent NYC hotel tax for a clear idea of final cost.

Then just pick a deal that best fits your needs and head into Manhattan before the crowds return come Labor Day.
