repost from NWR- hotels in NYC

DH and I are going to spend th weekend in the city for my b-day. When I first looked, The Ameritania had rooms available and since we've stayed there before we knew it was nice. When I went to book it, it wasn't available. Does anyone have any suggestions? We're looking to be in Times Square/Broadway area and want the room to be under $175 a night. TIA!

You need to be affiliated with a sister organization to get a room there. But they do not ask for any verification whatsoever. One such organization is the University of Pennsylvania. You can say you are an alumni, former employee, that your niece went to school there whatever, just need to name the place when they ask for it.

You need a password to access the website. You can FM if you want the Univ of PA password.

My advice: Read up at Bidding For Travel and use Priceline.
