Hotels in New York City are notoriously expensive. You can easily pay $500 for a tiny hotel room in Manhattan. And I do mean tiny, I've stayed at hotels in the city that were not much bigger than a closet. Space is at a premium in NYC. In other cities I could get a room three times as big for 10 times as cheap. But then, of course, I wouldn't be in New York City. They can charge the high prices because it's worth it to stay in the greatest city in the world.

What's The Most Expensive Hotel Room In Manhattan?

Well there may be a more expensive room available somewhere, but the most expensive room that I can find is at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel at Columbus Circle (at the bottom west corner of Central Park.) It's going for $1,185/night. I don't know about you, but I certainly don't have the cash to pay for a hotel at $1,185/night! It's amazing to me that people can spend that much money just on a hotel room for a night. You can imagine the big business people that stay in these sorts of places.

What's The Least Expensive Hotel Room In Manhattan?

I'll be excluding hostels and anywhere else where you have to share a bathroom. I'm only considering actual hotel rooms, that at least have their own bathroom! Unbelievably even the places where you have to share a bathroom are over $100 in Manhattan! The cheapest room I can find that has it's own bathroom in Manhattan is at La Semana Hotel which is on 25 West 24th Street. It's currently $189/night!
