New York Holidays an Eclectic Experience With Virgin

LONDON, Dec. 27, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- New York holidays are an experience in diversity, with plenty on offer. From the uptown glitz of the Upper West Side to the downtown bohemian chic of the West Village, from Chinatown to Little Italy, from Murray Hill to Midtown, you are presented with entirely different sights, sounds and even smells in each neighbourhood.

When it comes to things to do, you can expect to find out what 'spoilt for choice' really means, you might not be able to fit everything in on your New York Holiday! From the architecture, the history, the museums and galleries, to the clubs, theatres, restaurants and bars… weekend breaks in New York tend to be busy! Make a vague plan of what you want to see, but beware - the fizzing energy of Manhattan is bewitching, and it could carry you completely off course. Just make sure you see the best sights, like the Empire State Building with its amazing views, and leave plenty of time for the fabulous shopping during your New York Holiday! New York holidays without a trip to Macy's just wouldn't be right.

The Roosevelt Hotel New York is in a prime location in Midtown East, on Madison at 45th. It's within easy reach to Times Square, Grand Central Station and Saks Fifth Avenue. The Roosevelt Hotel New York is a huge 1924 Madison Avenue landmark and is handy for all the Midtown attractions. Fuel yourself for taking them on with the excellent breakfast buffet in Teddy's Table. The friendly doormen at The Roosevelt Hotel New York are particularly helpful, full of local tips, and the 24-hour room service is very handy for night owls.

The Waldorf Astoria New York is a sophisticated, luxury and historical hotel in a great central location on Park Avenue. Heads of state and US presidents normally stay here, so you're in good company! The Waldorf Astoria New York is within easy walking distance of great shopping on Madison and 5th Avenues. Escape the pace of the city after a day of shopping with an aromatherapy massage in the spa. Dinner is a special occasion at the Waldorf Astoria New York with gourmet meal at one of the hotel's fine-dining restaurants.
