Hotel rates skyrocket for SuperBowl
New York hotels have always been pricey, but the Super Bowl already is pushing rates higher still.
A new survey from CheapHotels.org found that rates in New York and across the Hudson River in New Jersey, and especially around MetLife Stadium in the Meadowlands, where the championship game will take place, are charging an average 139% more than their regular rates for the weekend of February 1-3, 2014.
And of course many hotels are above average. The two-star Tribeca Blu Hotel, for example, is asking a tony $1200 per night for a standard double room, four times the rack rate. The Howard Johnson Inn in Clifton, NJ, where rooms normally go for $94 is asking $900.
Certainly, the site suggests, travelers expecting to spend Super Bowl weekend in the Big Apple should book now. Rates have nowhere to go but up from here.
