Which hotel in Times Sq? We stayed in the Marriott which was fantastic. Has a revolving restaurant at the top (only one in NY I believe) which is well worth having dinner in even if your not staying.

Marriott Times Square - lifts, cool Thumbs Up I was on the 48th floor. First time I have ever been asked at check-in if I was "ok with heights" Shocked

I would give a big thumbs up to the helicopter tours if your are short on time or want to really impress. I took a number of my sales team last year. Apple store on 5th managed to take every last penny i had spare after the helicopter Big Cry

Thanks 90, we're only there for 5 nights so want to squeeze as much into the time as possible. Never been before and unlikely to be there for a while again after.

Our hotel is just off Park Central and evidently does some of the best breakfasts in NY 8) The Google 'Street View' explorer on the Maps is excellent, we've already 'walked' from our hotel round the park Laughing
