I know this probably belongs in the travel forum, and the WRG is not a new deal, but I am simply too excited to pass this up.

I was looking for a hotel in NYC in Sept. for a day or two, and the Ramada The New Yorker (across the street from MSG) lists their one queen bedroom for $239 for August 31, while Hotels.com lists it for $219.

And according to the best rate guarantee on Ramada's homepage, if you book at the Ramada site, and find a cheaper public rate for the same dates and room, your first night is free (even if you only book one night).

There is a LONG thread in SD that tells you exactly how to get it done.

So if any FW-ers are traveling to New York, this is a great deal.

Again I apologize for posting this here, but the travel forum gets nowhere nearly the attention as this forum.

Ah, I lived in the New Yorker for a year... Great location right across from MSG and Penn. Station

And Tick Tock diner can't be beat!

DOA. thanks for the effort though.

See, here's the thing.

If people are visiting New York and want a deal on a hotel, they will cruise over to the Travel forum and find this thread.

For those of us who aren't looking for a hotel in New York, posting this will not make us jump on the deal.

Quite a warm deal.

The "Metro Queen Room" is $219 on both websites so I'm not sure how you're going to get it for free. The one for $239 on Ramada site is called "New Yorker Queen" - have no clue about the difference.
