New York City has never been a budget destination, but many travelers are experiencing sticker shock over the high cost of a night at a hotel, especially as the peak holiday tourism season begins.
The average price of a hotel room in New York City in September climbed to $417, the highest monthly rate ever recorded in the city by CoStar, a real estate analytics company, since it started tracking the data in 1987.
