Hotel Blog Watch: Apple Core Hotels Give NYC Tips

Where: New York, ny, United States

In New York, the Apple Core Hotels are a bunch of five mid-range to budget hotels that seem to be doing the job of giving decent accommodation for a reasonably decent price. And they're even doing something a little more.

Yep, the Apple Core gang also run a blog called My Day In New York. 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 festival, as well as some tips on where to buy toys. They also include news from Apple Core hotels but these snippets are pretty rare.

This isn't the kind of hotel blog we'll get a kick out of reading for fun, but it's got a few useful tips for NYC holidaymakers, so we do give it an overall thumbs up. Although we would like to see a logo makeover, please.
