However, the city\u2019s reputation for high prices can be daunting for families on a strict budget.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But don\u2019t worry, this guide is here to help. If you\u2019re dreaming of exploring the City that Never Sleeps with your family, we\u2019ve got you covered with lots of tips and advice on exploring the city without breaking the bank.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Where to Stay in NYC<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding the right place to stay is key to any trip, but even more so when you\u2019re trying to keep costs down. Your first instinct when planning a trip to New York may be to look for hotels in Manhattan, but instead think of looking in other neighborhoods. These will provide you and your family with more budget-friendly options and they\u2019re usually quieter and more family-friendly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyscanner.com\/hotels\/united-states\/new-york-hotels\/ci-27537542\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cheap hotels in NYC<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, consider some of the following neighborhoods:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Long Island City (Queens):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Just one subway stop away from Midtown Manhattan, this area is great for families looking for cheaper accommodation while still being close to all the action. There are plenty of budget-friendly hotels like the Boro Hotel and the Hyatt Place Long Island City and, as it\u2019s a quieter neighborhood, it can be a great place to unwind after a hectic day exploring the city.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Williamsburg (Brooklyn)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: This is another great option if you\u2019re looking for cheaper accommodation. With hotels like the Wythe and Hotel Le Jolie, you will definitely be able to find something that fits your budget. It\u2019s also only a 25-30 minute subway ride to Manhattan, so you\u2019ll still be close to all the major attractions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Astoria (Queens):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Like Brooklyn and Long Island City, Astoria is well-connected and not too far from Manhattan via the subway \u2014 you can even catch the ferry for a more scenic journey. There is plenty of accommodation to suit all budgets, as well as a wide range of family-friendly restaurants in the area.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Top Tip:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Consider a vacation rental to lower costs even further or look for family rooms in hostels like HI New York Hostel. These give you the option to prepare your own food and can provide a unique vacation experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to Eat Well<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New York is famous for its wide variety of culinary delights, and it definitely doesn\u2019t disappoint! You can find everything from pizza and tacos, to chow mein and cheesecake and it also doesn\u2019t need to break the bank.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a classic slice of New York-style pizza try one of the following options:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2 Bros. Pizza\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joe\u2019s Pizza\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sofia Pizza Shoppe<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also throw yourself into the vibrant street food culture that offers a diverse range of food at reasonable prices. Some of the best options include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Birria Landia for tacos<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Halal Guys for Middle Eastern dishes<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wafels &amp; Dinges for Belgian waffles<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You could also visit food halls like the Chelsea Market or Urbanspace. You can find reasonably priced food and, as an added bonus, everyone can choose their own meal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Top Tip<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Try to dine during happy hour as many places offer discounts and offers during this time, making it a great way to save some money.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Free and Low-Cost Attractions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NYC is brimming with exciting attractions and world-famous sights, and the good thing is that many of them are free or don\u2019t cost a lot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First among these is Central Park. An iconic New York location, it\u2019s a must-see for families looking for a fun way to spend the day. You can enjoy a picnic, visit one of the many playgrounds, and explore the beautiful gardens all for free! For a small cost you could visit the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/centralparkzoo.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Central Park Zoo<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or rent a rowboat on the lake.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To learn more about the city and see its main sights, join one of the many free walking tours. These are a great way to explore and discover hidden gems and different neighbourhoods. You can also take a stroll across the Brooklyn Bridge for stunning views and a great family photo opportunity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Top Tip<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: If you want to explore some of the many museums, take advantage of the free or pay-what-you-wish admission that many offer on certain days or times. For example, the American Museum of Natural History has free admission during the last hour of the day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Discount Passes &amp; Tickets<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If there are lots of attractions you and your family are dying to visit, but you\u2019re concerned about sticking to your budget, think about purchasing a discount pass. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.citypass.com\/new-york?mv_source=rkg&amp;mtm_campaign=gads-1560850223&amp;mtm_source=google-ads&amp;mtm_medium=ppc&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiAiaC-BhBEEiwAjY99qLF3PGqStla9yFLHY4chc1RcTfkKYhbl0_loC5Fv876mZVD-39uqRRoCDJkQAvD_BwE\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CityPASS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the New York Pass provide access to some of the main attractions at a considerable discount compared to paying for them one by one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are also some great discounts available on shows and events. For example, you can get heavily discounted rush tickets on the day of a performance or try your luck with digital lotteries for shows like The Lion King or Aladdin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For free events, take a look at Eventbrite and NYC for Free. You\u2019ll be able to find plenty of free family-friendly events taking place around the city.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Traveling Around the City<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re watching your spending, then there is no better way to explore New York than on foot. It\u2019s a great way to discover new sights and soak up the vibrant city atmosphere. The main attractions are also fairly close together, just bring a stroller for younger kids and schedule plenty of breaks to rest tired legs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you can\u2019t walk everywhere you want to go, the subway and bus system are affordable ways to get around. Take the time to download a subway map and get a 7-day MetroCard for unlimited rides on the buses and subways.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Top Tip<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Consider renting a Citi Bike for a fun and economical way to explore the city.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A vacation in New York City can be the trip of a lifetime and with some careful planning doesn\u2019t need to break the bank. So, pack your bags, grab your MetroCard, and get ready to make some fantastic memories!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York City with its iconic skyline, bustling streets, and world-famous attractions is at the top of many people\u2019s travel bucket lists.
