Have you ever stayed at the Beekman Tower in New York city?

How were the accomidations? Is it close to any good restaurants? Also, what is the best way to see the sights of New York City? I only have 2 whole days and want to see as much as possible. We are going to see the phantom of the opera at the majestic theatre. Is it close enough to walk?

Thank you!

The theatre is at 44th Street and Broadway; your hotel is on Mitchell Place near 49th and First Avenue. This is about a mile from the theatre, if you are used to walking that distance, by all means walk, but if you aren't used to it, I suggest you take the bus - it's right at the corner of your hotel. Walk to First Avenue and 49th Street and take the M27 bus headed to Midtown West. Get off the bus at 44th Street and Seventh Avenue and you'll be less than a block from the Majestic Theatre. Allow yourself at least 1/2 hour travelling time.

The Beekman is in a great neighborhood - right near the UN. I live in New York so I've never stayed there. Here are some reviews from people who have stayed there - it looks like everyone was happy with the hotel. You'll have a kitchen, so you can save your restaurant leftovers.
