<p>You can’t beat Hotel Newton for Columbia parents looking for convenience and price. The Hotel is located at 2528 Broadway between 94th and 95th Street. They do not have a website. Their phone number is 212) 678-6500. You can use subway 1 or bus 104 to Columbia. There is also a Days Inn on 94th and Broadway. Book far in advance. If you know you are coming for parents weekend in October you should already have reservations becasue the Hotel Newton books up fast. Columbia also offers accomodations on campus for parents but it is not available during orientation. Also go to the Columbia and Barnard website and go to the vistors link and there are a list of recommended hotels.</p>
