Last updated: October 30, 2026. Flight prices were checked on Google Flights and hotel prices on Trip.com on October 30, 2026, for a week in New York from Sunday, March 7 to Sunday, March 14, 2027. Prices change daily, so treat them as a snapshot, not a quote.
Short answer: a week in New York from Atlanta costs about $200–300 for a round-trip nonstop flight, plus about $1,300–2,000 for 7 nights in a standard Manhattan or Brooklyn hotel. Booking sites showed no real weekly discount: per night, a full week cost the same or slightly more than a short stay. Under $1,000 for the week, you are looking at hostels, the YMCA or simple hotels in Queens.

What this means: on booking sites, a week is simply seven nights at the going rate; there is no automatic weekly discount. The week came out 2–23% more expensive per night, mainly because it includes the weekend. If your dates are flexible, a Sunday-to-Sunday week is still a good choice, but do not expect a bulk price. See our hotel price test for how much weekends and seasons change rates in New York.
Cheapest options for a week
Sorted by price, the cheapest 7-night stays on Trip.com for the same dates were hostels and simple hotels, mostly outside Manhattan:
- The Local NY (Long Island City, Queens): $423
- Voyage Hotel (Queens): $632
- Kama Central Park (Upper West Side, hostel): $640
- West Side YMCA (Upper West Side): $767
Check the room type before booking: several of these are shared rooms or rooms with shared bathrooms.
How to save on a week in New York
- Stay in Brooklyn, Long Island City or Jersey City near a subway or PATH station. You are often 10–20 minutes from Midtown for less money.
- Look for a kitchen. Extended-stay brands such as Residence Inn, Homewood Suites, TownePlace Suites and Hyatt House have kitchens, which saves money on food over a week.
- Ask the hotel directly about weekly rates if you stay 7 nights or longer. Some independent hotels offer them; booking sites usually do not.
- Avoid peak periods. December holidays and major events push prices up sharply; January to March is usually cheaper.
- Use the subway instead of taxis. A ride costs about $3, and fares are capped weekly when you pay by contactless card.
What the week costs in total
A realistic budget for one person, Sunday to Sunday:
- Flight: about $200–280 round trip (nonstop)
- Hotel: about $1,300–1,600 for a standard hotel in Lower Manhattan, Times Square or Downtown Brooklyn; under $800 for a hostel or YMCA
- Food, transport and sights: depends on your style; see our USA trip cost guide for daily ranges
Two people sharing a room pay roughly the same hotel price, which makes a week in New York much better value as a couple.
