Millenium Hilton for our soho shopping trip

Hi everyone, I just booked via priceline and got the hilton hotel for one night.

I realize this hotel is not in soho so how far a walk is it?

My 18year old daughter and I want to explore the soho area and shop all the resale and boutique shops.

I do like Cent. 21 so thats a plus.

Are we going to be dissapointed with this is it out of the way?

thanks.

You%26#39;ll love it! Esp if you ask for a room facing north or east (say it%26#39;s someone%26#39;s birthday or something). Fabulous views!

You can get FREE street, shopping and dining maps of the area.

http://www.downtownny.com/mapsguides/

You can measure distances and transit directions using hopstop.com or www.maps.google.com

You are right above the sprawling Fulton Street-Broadway-Nassau subway station (#2, 3, 4, 5, J, M, Z, A, C, E subway lines) and the Chambers Street-WTC-Park Place station (#2, 3, A, C, E %26amp; PATH trains), not to mention near the M9 and M15 buses which go through Chinatown to the East Village and north.

You can even walk to Soho on a nice day. Walk north on B%26#39;way or Lafayette Street. Both are interesting. Church Street has boring stretches, imho.

Don%26#39;t forget, you%26#39;ll be a 5 minute walk away from the South Street Seaport, which has the original (and quieter) Abercrombie and the less crowded TKTS booth.

I could go on and on (and I have) about how fab lower Manhattan is. I haven%26#39;t even mentioned the hisotry. Have you seen my self guided walking tour of the area?

My only warning is don%26#39;t eat at the hotel resaurant Church and Dey. Way better options all around you.

Here are my other suggestions about dining, touring and shopping in the area:

Millenium Hilton for our soho shopping trip

We stayed there last year. Very nice hotel. Gorgeous.

queens, you are fantastic!!!! I will look at the threads you provided and print the info to take with. My daughter is excited we went to williamsburg just this past weekend and shopped. What fun we had.

Oh I called the hilton and requested a double bed room not facing the world trade center construction. I don%26#39;t know what to expect using priceline and all.

I never used it before. I prefer to book directly with the hotel but the prices for a decent place in soho was 300 for the night.

thanks again will let you know how it worked out when we return.

Just ordered the maps! I am excited now. Hope the weather is nice We want to walk over the bridge. Again your info is priceless thanks!!!

Queensboulavard- I read it costs 55 dollars to park at the hotel yikes. Any suggestion for something less expensive in the area or what are the chances of parking in the street on a thursday? I really don%26#39;t have the patience to drive around for too long. thanks in advance for any tip you could provide

Def do not park at the hotel!

You can park at one of the many Icon garages nearby (I know there%26#39;s one at the Woolworth Building on Barclay Street and on the Church St. side of 90 Park Place.)

Queens, thanks for posting your self-guided tour of Lower Manhattan!

Thanks again Queensboulavard I used icon and the other web site and got some prices the least expensive is 50 bucks ( for what I estimated to be 32 hrs of parking) then I maped it out to be about a 11min walk 1/2 mile away.

My question Parking at the woolworth building (3min walk away) how do I get prices. I googled but came up empy Do you have any suggestions?

Did I mention how great your are !!!!!
