We are planning a trip to New York at the end of May for 6 days. It's our first trip to NYC so I am wondering what there is to do when we are travelling with our 18m old DD. we've booked a suite at the Iroquois hotel near Central Park, and just have a few questions:
1. Our hotel rate is $370/night, is that pretty much average for the area? We booked a suite so that when DD sleeps we have a place to watch tv
2. Is our hotel in a good location where there are things to do with DD within walking distance?
3. Do I need to bring her carseat? We won't be renting a car so we will mostly get around by cab or walking and just wondering if NYC cabs will take you if there is no carseat for the child.
We plan to go to the Central Park zoo and just visit the park.. Thinking it will take about 1 full day if we are travelling with DD.
Another day will be spent in Chinatown, financial district, Statue of Liberty
And another full day will be spent at Woodbury commons cuz mommy needs to shop!
That leaves me with 3 days to plan. I don't think we can visit any shows because DD would not be able to sit through it.
Any ideas as to what else we could do? How's the weather during at time of the year?
Thx!
