💰 How far does your money go?
The best meals in New York are often the cheapest. A chicken and rice platter from a halal cart costs around $10, about €8.60, less than a menú del día in Madrid or Barcelona. A bagel with cream cheese is $4-5, and a filter coffee from a corner deli is $2-3. Every subway ride is a flat $3, whether you go two stops or from the Bronx to Coney Island.
☀️ The Weather
January and February are cold, with highs of 3-5°C, nights below freezing and a good chance of snow. March is changeable, around 10°C, with the first mild days late in the month. April warms to about 17°C and May reaches 22°C, ideal for walking the city all day.
🏨 Where to Stay
Three bases away from the usual Midtown blocks.
Paper Factory Hotel - 8.0/10 · From €115/night A converted factory in Queens, one subway stop from Manhattan, with lower prices to match.

🎯 What to Do
From late winter to spring, New York moves from the bars back out onto the streets.
Staten Island Ferry: Free, runs around the clock and sails right past the Statue of Liberty.
St Patrick's Day Parade: On 17 March, around 150,000 marchers take over Fifth Avenue. The 09/03/2027 - 19/03/2027 dates from Barcelona cover it.
Cherry blossom at Brooklyn Botanic Garden: The trees peak from early April to early May, a short walk from Prospect Park.
Live jazz in the West Village: Small basement clubs like Smalls play sets until the early hours, for the price of a drink and a cover charge.
🗺️ Where to Go From Here
New York connects easily to the rest of the East Coast and Canada.
Hudson Valley: Riverside towns, hiking trails and the Dia Beacon art museum, around 90 minutes by train from Grand Central.
Washington DC: Free museums and the cherry blossom around the Tidal Basin in spring, about three hours by train.
Boston: Harvard, the harbour and clam chowder, just over an hour by plane. Search flights
