<p>I am attending a conference that will be at Steinhardt at NYU in early January. Wanted to ask what hotels parents have used (and liked) or are planning to use that are near Steinhardt? </p>
<p>I think there may have been threads on this in the past but I cant seem to locate them.
Thanks!</p>
<p>There is a Hyatt Union Square that’s very nice, but pricey. However, all rates seem to drop significantly in January/February.</p>
<p>Most hotels (few that they are) near Steinhardt are very pricey. Your best bet would be to use Hotwire or Priceline and get one in the Chelsea, Empire State Building or Madison Square Garden Areas which would get you to the Washington Square area that NYU is in quite easily by subway/metro. Many visiting families or auditionees also look at VRBO for apartments in the Washington Square Park or Union Square areas that can be much cheaper than hotels. You can also look at AirBnB for apartment rentals or rooms, but the only problem is that they can cancel on you at the last minute, which I’ve had happen twice! My daughter is a student at Steinhardt, and I usually just get Hotwire or Priceline and commute by Metro.</p>
<p>Thanks so much for the information!
