Hotels and Restaurants in NYC

Hotels

There's over a thousand hotels in the City of New York. This is for the masses of amount of tourists they receive annually.

I'd recommend staying in a nice hotel when in New York, well when going anywhere as it adds to the enjoyment of the trip knowing you've somewhere nice to go back to everyday.

When on my trip in New York I stayed at the New York Marriott Marquis hotel. It is located at 1535 Broadway, New York City which is right on Times Square. I had a wonderful time at this hotel and would recommend it to anyone travelling to NYC. The staff were very helpful and the rooms and breakfast was amazing. Unfortunately, we never ate dinner in the hotel as we always tried to stay out and about and seeing new things so I couldn't give on opinion on that.
The rooms were of a great size with two double beds, a large bathroom, a large plasma TV, desks and drawers. We also had a great view of the city which I enjoyed.
Every morning, I couldn't wait to get up and start a new day with one of the Marriot's breakfasts. They served it in buffet style and had everything you could possibly want.
The huge hotel had a total of 49 floors and the 49th floor being a revolving bar/restaurant. You wouldn't even notice you're moving but slowly you're seeing the city from all different angles.
I definitely had a great stay and would recommend it to all!

A famous luxurious hotel in NYC is The Plaza Hotel.
The Plaza Hotel is recognised world wide and being one of New Yorks most famous 5 star hotels it has provided years of outstanding services and care. The Plaza Hotel first opened up in 1907. It is located at the top of 5th Avenue facing Central Park so it is a greatly located hotel. When in New York I got to experience the Plaza Hotel. I went to the Plaza's underground food hall which is a floor of a wide range of all sorts of food cultures and types. I had a famous lunch there and a lovely experience.

Restaurants

Annisa is an Asian restaurant located in NYC. The restaurant is actually owned by an award winning chef named Anita Lo. She offers a first class cuisine service and her restaurant has been highly rated 4.6 out of 5 stars. The restaurant is located in the beautiful Greenwich village. Anita Lo is inspired to cook beautiful foods by her Asian roots, her travels and her classic French technique. 

A famous pizzeria in NYC would be Lombardi's Pizzeria. It was pronounced the city's most famous pizzeria and has been open since 1905. The small tight place creates a great Italian atmosphere with its checked table cloths and black and white pictures hanging on their painted brick walls. Lombardi's is quite a cheap and cheerful place; you'd be looking at about $20/30 worth of pizzas and drinks that would suit 3-4 people. Their coal oven thin crusted pizza is said to be the best by many throughout Manhattan. 

A quick WARNING. With all these great reviews flying around you could be waiting a while to get a table, you could have to wait up to an hour on a busy night.
