[quote=Anonymous]We did this last year and are a family of three that includes a teen. We spent three nights at a hotel in Midtown and took the train from DC. I booked the hotel and train the previous June. As others have said, booking Amtrak way in advance reduces the price significantly. I think our hotel cost a bit less than $1500 total. Food costs a ton more than you think it will and tickets to a show are expensive. All in, I'd say our trip was probably around $5k, not including a few things we purchased when shopping. Also note that NYC is extremely crowded that time of year. I read about it on DCUM before we went last year and just kind of shrugged it off, but it's unlike any other city crowd I've been in. You literally just walk with the crowd because there's no choice. It was nice to be there around the holidays once, but I'll never do it again. Although with international tourism way down this year, it might be less crowded. [/quote]
