Manhattan is the easiest borough for a first New York trip, but choosing the island is only the first decision.
Midtown reduces travel time to major sights. The Upper West Side is calmer and excellent for Central Park. Downtown neighbourhoods offer stronger restaurant and evening atmosphere.
These are the hotels I would compare first.

Stay in Midtown if this is a short first visit and convenience matters most.
Choose the Upper West Side for Central Park, museums and a more residential evening atmosphere. Choose Chelsea, SoHo or the Lower East Side when restaurants and neighbourhood character matter more than being beside the classic Midtown sights.
There is no universally best Manhattan neighbourhood. The right answer is the area that removes the most unnecessary journeys from your own itinerary.
Midtown is the simplest all-round base for a short first visit because of its transport connections and proximity to major sights.
Midtown is more convenient for classic attractions. Downtown has stronger neighbourhood atmosphere, restaurants and nightlife. Choose according to how you expect to spend the evenings.
The Upper West Side works particularly well for Central Park, the American Museum of Natural History and apartment-style hotels. Midtown can be easier for a very short trip.
Many are. Check the room's stated floor area, bed arrangement and luggage storage rather than assuming categories such as deluxe or superior indicate generous space.
No. Walking, the subway and buses are more useful for a typical visit. Parking is expensive and driving is often slower.
