💰 How far does your money go?
A menú del día in Barcelona runs about €14: three courses, bread and a drink. In New York that buys three plain pizza slices and a can of soda, eaten standing up. A caña costs €3 on a terrace here. A pint in a Manhattan bar is €9 before tip. The move is to eat like a local: a €4 slice at Joe's, a €6.50 coffee and bagel, a €26 pastrami sandwich at Katz's split between two. A weekly transit pass caps at €31, and the Staten Island Ferry past the Statue of Liberty is free.
☀️ The weather
New York in November starts mild and turns fast. Highs slip from 13°C to 6°C across the month, with nights near freezing by December. December holds around 5°C by day and drops below zero after dark. January is the bottom: 3°C highs, hard frost most nights and a real chance of snow. By early March it claws back to 8°C. Pack a proper coat, gloves and boots that cope with slush.
🏨 Where to stay
Stay in Manhattan below 59th Street or in brownstone Brooklyn. Anything on a subway line works.
Pod 51 8.0/10, from €110/night. Tiny bunk-style rooms in Midtown East, a rooftop bar and a 10-minute walk to Grand Central.
Hotel Mulberry 8.5/10, from €180/night. On the edge of Chinatown and Little Italy, walkable to Soho, Nolita and the Lower East Side.
The Beekman, a Thompson Hotel 9.2/10, from €470/night. A restored 1880s building wrapped around a nine-storey atrium, two minutes from the Brooklyn Bridge.
🎯 What to do
New York rewards walking. Pick a neighbourhood and cover it on foot.
Brooklyn Bridge at first light. Start on the Manhattan side around sunrise and you get the walkway and the skyline almost to yourself.
The Met. Two million works on the edge of Central Park. Non-residents pay about €28 and it is worth a full afternoon.
Katz's Delicatessen. Pastrami on rye since 1888, cash for the ticket, carved to order at the counter. About €26 a sandwich and easily shared.
The Staten Island Ferry. Free, runs all night, and passes close to the Statue of Liberty in both directions. Skip the paid harbour cruises.
🗺️ Where to go from here
New York is also the start of the Northeast rail corridor. Trains leave Penn Station and Grand Central all day.
Philadelphia. 1 hour 20 by Amtrak. Independence Hall, cheesesteaks and a walkable old town.
Washington DC. 3 hours 30 by Amtrak. Free Smithsonian museums and the monuments after dark.
Boston. 4 hours by Amtrak or a cheap bus. The Freedom Trail, oyster bars and college-town pubs.
Hudson Valley. 1 hour 20 on Metro-North to Cold Spring or Beacon. Riverside hikes and the Dia:Beacon art museum.
Bear Mountain. 1 hour by bus from Port Authority. Ridge trails and Hudson views, busiest when the leaves turn.
