This book went everywhere with me!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I purchased two books for my recent visit to NYC (my first trip with kids.) This book (The other was "New York's 50 Best Places to take Children")was exactly what I needed to find great places to eat with my kids...and to help me figure out which tourist attractions were worth the time and cost. It's well-organized and has a great rating system for restaurants and sight-seeing. I looked at many guide books....and this one was the best!
Informative guide for travel with kids
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Having traveled several times to NYC as a couple, we were unsure as to what our plans would be with two boys, 2 & 6. This guide was invaluable. It is an excellent resource for families. It is particularly useful when choosing family outings, accommodations, & restaurants. Age guidelines & menu summaries are provided for each restaurant. Descriptions of hotels & rooms ( & space in the rooms) are given. Lots of info on kids' activities that isn't readily available to a visitor such as shows & museums for children, playgrounds, & even tips for finding a public restroom. And much more. Phone #s, websites, pricing, & age guidelines are given for all. Plus, lots of tips for many popular destinations about waiting times, environment for a small child (or older child), etc. - all that info that parents of young children want! All in all a great guide.
Great source for families traveling in NYC
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Our family just returned from a long weekend in NYC. We found the book invaluable. The book recommended the Doubletree Hotel as the best 'kid-friendly' place to stay, and they were right on. The rooms were spacious, modern and clean. The hotel also had a great location right on Times Square. The book also suggested John's Pizza which turned about to be a great call. The pizza was great, the restaurant loud enough for our kids and we were able to walk right in and get a table on a Saturday night.
Thorough, entertaining guide to read

I have already taken the kids to the Big Apple but wanted to be better prepared for the next trip. I found this guide extremeley helpful and accurate in its assessments. The restaurant reviews are particularly good- that was one area where I "winged it" and wished I had more working knowledge of the city. This guide is worth every penny.
