I LOVE going to Manhattan as a kid. All the interactive museums, the kid-friendly food. I was a big Broadway fan too and got to see all the fun shows, I was a lucky kid!

I hit those steps like no other in NYC! I think I’m going to make it an annual trip too now.

Such a helpful post! My children have never been to NYC and I haven’t been there in 20 years. I keep thinking we need to take a trip there, and this is great insight into thinking about where to start. I especially wanted hotel recos, so thank you for that. I don’t know if 2019 will be our year, but hopefully we’ll get there in 2020!

I actually just got back from NYC 5 days ago!! It was my second annual trip (although I’ve been countless times). I’m right there with you on the electricity. There’s just something about the city! I wanted to hit up Milk Bar but failed to do so this trip so it got moved to next year’s trip. I like that Yotel though! The rooms are cool! And yes, if you want to eat in NYC (which is definitely the thing to do) then walk as much as you can. I did nearly 50 miles in my 6.5 days!
