In New York, where you'd be hard-pressed to find someone not directly affected by the economy, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/Apple%20Core%20Hotels">Apple Core Hotels</a>, a collection of five budget-friendly hotels in the center of Manhattan, are swooping in to save tax day with $4.15 rooms for the first two weeks of April.

The end of the year is traditionally the strongest for NYC tourism (with parades and outdoor skating rinks and such) -- but booking for hotels over the next few months is falling below last year's levels, while the number of cancellations is starting to climb. The Sunday New York Times had a <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/18/nyregion/18hotels.html?_r=2&scp=3&sq=hotel&st=cse&oref=slogin&oref=login">rather lengthy story</a> describing the state of the hotel industry in NYC and how it's faring during the economic downturn -- but what does this mean for the guest?

And they're even doing something a little more.Yep, the Apple Core gang also run a blog called <a href="http://www.mydayinnewyork.com/">My Day In New York</a>. They don't make a secret of the fact that the blog is sponsored by the hotels, yet it's surprisingly readable and quite useful.It's not a super-fancy blog, but they post almost daily with tips about what's happening in NYC. For example, last week they mentioned the Women in Jazz Festival that's running until October 12 and the Under the Bridge arts amandak 2008-09-22T09:30:32-05:00 Search HotelChatter Search HotelChatter string http://www.hotelchatter.com/search/
