We have been to NYC 3 times and we stay in Times Square at the Marriott Marquis- it's in the middle between central park and SOHO which makes it a prime location to get everything done you want!
We Uber from the airport to the hotel but everything after that is all walking- by the time you wait for your car and sit in traffic, it evens out to about the same time. Plus- all the walking will help burn off the calories from all the amazing food. Be prepared to walk about 8-10 miles a day
Below are all the tours and shows we have seen plus all the restaurants that we have approved and eaten at- there are some that didn't make the cut. Enjoy NYC and please let me know if you utilize this list and what you see / what you eat
