· Three years ago, we stayed with three children aged five, seven and nine in the Ameritania Hotel (001 212-247 5000, nycityhotels.com), on the corner of 54th and Broadway, not far from Central Park. We had a suite with two rooms; the bedroom had two double beds and we put all three children in one of them. There was also a bed-settee in the living room. It wasn't expensive and the price included an all-you-can-eat doughnuts, juice and coffee breakfast.
