Our long weekend in New York.

I’ve been to New York City more times than I can count. I started visiting the city with my mom and sister when I was in middle school. When Michael and I lived in DC, I traveled to NYC a few times a year. Recently, Michael and I have been making a trip at least once a year to spend a long weekend in our favorite city.

We always go during the holiday season, typically the first weekend in December. We decided to go in November this year to avoid the onslaught of holiday crowds, but thankfully the city was already getting into the festive spirit - a handful of shops and restaurants were already adorned with wreaths and twinkling lights.

Today I’m sharing a quick hitting guide to a long weekend in NYC in case you’re visiting this holiday season! A great guide to bookmark if you have plans to visit the city at all in the near future.

Where to Stay

If you’re on OG follower of my blog, Cobalt Chronicles, or follow me on Instagram, you know we’re a Hyatt family through and through. Michael has Globalist status with Hyatt, Hyatt points go FAR, and we just generally love the Hyatt hospitality and experience.

With that being said, we have two favorite Hyatt properties that we stay at when visiting the city.
