Sorry I can't really tell you which hotels are closest to each river with unobstructed views (no other buildings in the way). I will tell you that one year, way back when they were ALWAYS on the Hudson, we saw them from the Sheraton in Weehawken, NJ, with a perfect view.

New York City Hotel Recommendation
We are thinking a family (2 adult 1 child) trip for a long weekend to NYC next summer. I was looking for recommendations of where to stay. Stay would be most likely with points and/or free weekend night certificate. Any suggestions?

NYC with almost 6 yr old
Would use an award night and add 2 additional nights with another program (IHG). Which is the best hotel that would have a sofa bed or allow a roll away, have no resort fees on reward nights and a great free breakfast (for Gold).
Guessing we would do central park and AMNH, next day, Intrepid and a show and then one day children's museum of the arts and one world observatory.
Anything close to say the south end of CP (near Heckscher) may be a good option as I may have to work in the AM so easy access for my mom or husband to take the kids. TIA.

Not much to go on here... so you want one night at a Hilton and 2 nights at some other place. Given your itinerary and not much else, try one night at the Hilton Garden Inn Central Park South-Midtown West up near 54th st. You can usually get 2 Queen beds... you mention one child but total in party is not stated so why a roll away is needed is unclear. Use that as the base to go to Central Park and the Children's Museum. For the other 2 nights try a location more downtown as your other places you want to go are farther south.
Good luck!
Good luck!

I'd go for the Conrad in the Battery Park area. It's an all-suite hotel. Make sure to ask for a suite with a pull-out sofa in the living room, then your child will feel like royalty in his/her own room. :-)

I'm going there with a family of three in the next few weeks on an all-points stay. Went for the two doubles. Was at the Doubletree Suites in Times Square last year. Also a nice hotel with a sofa bed, though it is pricey (point cost is higher than the Conrad).

With just 3 nights why do you want to switch hotels/chains? If you just do, what other chain do you collect points with?

Thanks - anniversary nights expiring. The other would be IHG. Would the Conrad be a good choice since so close to One world observatory, and closer to staten island ferry/transit museum than midtown. My brother liked the hotel.

I've never stayed at the Conrad but you'll have more living space. It is close to everything downtown, so I'd do that for the free night then maybe move your IHG nights to another area for a different perspective.
Are you talking about the Transit Museum in Brooklyn or something else?
