Which hotels in NYC have early check-in time? -

I want to know which hotels in NYC have early check-in time. Most of hotels in NYC seem to have 3 p.m. check-in time, so I want hotels with check-in time earlier than that. Also, the hotels must be in NYC, not in NY state.

Well, very few hotels will have a check-in time earlier than that, but, if it s just a case of wanting to drop off your bags while you go get your sightseeing day started or go to a meeting or something, then just about any hotel will allow you to check your bags with them earlier, and then come back later to do the actual check-in itself.Good luck!

Virtually all of the hotels will have a 2-3pm check-in time. There is no way around that, but you can call ahead of your arrival and the hotel may be to accommodate you earlier. Also most nicer hotels will at least hold on to your luggage until your room is ready so you can drop it off and then start exploring the city.

You can request I mean REQUEST lol (I m a front desk agent sorry) an early check-in but it s rare before noon though. If the hotel says they have early check-in you can ask to pre check-in and when the room ready have to call you. Most hotels issue is that the room is just not ready before 3pm most of the time because of the business or maybe staff is behind. So before you make a reservation contact the hotel to see if they offer early check-in if they do fine if not well plan around, you will have plenty to do in NYC trust me.

Plaza Hotel is the best.

17th birthday in disney? -

I m turning 17 in the turn of the new year and I am going to Disney world. I have been there every year since I ve been born and somtimes twice a year so as you can imagine it is like a second home to me. I ve watched programs on tv on things that people don t really know about disney, but I was wondering if anyone knew of anything cool and off beat that I could do for my birthday whelst there. Any suggestions would be great.

Make sure the cast members know you re celebrating by getting a birthday button at a retail location(your best bet is the Emporium on Main St.)--they ll be sure to make it a special day for you! As far as something cool and off beat that you could do, you might think about taking one of the many tours Disney offers. The Backstage Magic tour is a really cool way to get some inside information on the parks, especially since you re so familiar with the on-stage experience! As far as your dining experience is concerned, a great (and new) place to eat is the T-Rex Cafe in Downtown Disney-great food and a pretty cool atmosphere. It is owned and produced by the same company as Rainforest Cafe, but has a lot of new and advanced special effects. Have a magical trip and a very happy birthday!

I celebrated my birthday in WDW this past summer. We went to dinner at O Hana s. We saw the Wishes fireworks, we could hear the music too, while dining. We also saw the electric light parade on the water. It was fabulous! If you go there, you just have to make sure that Wishes is scheduled for that evening. One place you may not know about, is Kidani Village. It just opened in May. They have a restaurant called Sanaa with floor to ceiling windows, where you can watch the animals from the savannah. Have a great birthday!
