Travelmood is offering 3 nights in the 5* InterContinental, The Barclay, New York City for £499 pp, a saving of £170 pp.
The hotel is in a great location just off Park Avenue, close to Madison and Fifth, in walking distance of the Rockefeller Centre, Carnegie Hall and Time Square. The style is old world glamour but with modern facilities. Past guests have included Bette Davis, Marlon Brando, Nelson Mandela and Ronald Regan - not at the same time, we understand.
Departing June 7, the break includes 3 nights’ room-only accommodation and Virgin Atlantic flights from Heathrow.
Transfers aren’t included but you can always blow the money you’ve saved on a stretch limo to whisk you off in style to the hotel when you arrive - Travelmood can fix it for an additional £163 per couple.
