If you are planning a getaway that feels straight out of a rom-com, we can recommend a couple of bachelorette hotels in NYC. From lavish suites with gorgeous views to a "Sex and the City"-worthy rental unit, you're literally spoilt for choice! 

The Plaza Hotel is timeless, close to everything and the perfect base for your adventure. Book a stay at this luxury Central Park hotel in the heart of Manhattan. It has suites with exquisite furnishings and plush bedding, and you can add personalized spa packages to elevate your experience. Need more reasons to love The Plaza? Check it out:

• It's a five-star hotel.
• It's featured in some great movies, such as "Bride Wars," "Home Alone 2," "The Great Gatsby" and, of course, "Eloise at the Plaza."
• You can enjoy artisanal cocktails at The Champagne Bar.
• The hotel is close to Broadway shows and New York City's vibrant nightlife.

Book a vacation rental for a more private experience. The Fly-Inn in Queens is a stylish retreat designed by an interior designer. It offers three cozy bedrooms with four beds, a chic living room and a fully equipped kitchen. Here's why we love it:

• It's an entire apartment — what's not to love?
• It's got the Superhost status.
• It offers a marina view.
• Pets are allowed!
• It's super close to LaGuardia Airport (LGA).

Plant yourself in the stunning East Village, and stay at The Standard for the weekend. Getting Insta-moments right from the hotel? Heck yes. The Standard features electric backdrops, stunning views, rooftop parties and a secret garden. Whether you're looking forward to taking pics with the signature lip pillows that sit on each bed, gazing out the floor-to-ceiling windows or taking advantage of the overstocked minibars, everyone will be vibing at this hotel.

Bachelorette activities in NYC offer a perfect blend of culture, excitement and fun. Whether you're into shopping and seeing the Upper East Side or want to experience all the tourist attractions, there's plenty to add to your itinerary.

Pick your favorite Broadway song, and catch a dazzling theatrical performance. Whether you want to see a hit like "Hamilton," a beloved classic like "Wicked" or a dazzling new show, there is a play for every taste. Be sure to skip the queues and book ahead of time 'cause they can sell out fast!

You can go shopping at luxury boutiques and flagship stores or indulge in the trendy vibes of SoHo's chic boutiques and designer shops. Fan-favorites include:

• The Tiffany & Co. Landmark Store on 5th Avenue. 
• Saks Fifth Avenue.
• Macy's on 34th Street.
• The Hudson Yards neighborhood in Midtown. 

At the Oculus, you can do some shopping while enjoying an amazing, futuristic design. As you explore iconic brand names, make sure to take photos!

Looking for more ways to pack your weekend? Here are some more ideas:

• Take a trip to the top of the Empire State Building for some of the best views in the city. 
• Ride the elevator to the top of Rockefeller Center if you want the Empire State Building to appear in your photos. 
• Visit the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) if the bride-to-be is an art enthusiast. 
• Walk through Central Park. 
• Take a hop-on-hop-off bus tour. 
• Dance till you drop at the Marquee Nightclub.
• Walk The High Line — an elevated park created on a former New York Central Railroad spur.
• Drink tea at Bergdorf Goodman's seventh-floor cafe. 

New York City comes alive with winter fun around the holidays. Head over to Rockefeller Center to take pictures with the famous tree and go ice skating, or visit some of the pop-up holiday shops in Bryant Park. There are also many holiday-themed shop windows in the local department stores to enjoy as you sip on hot cocoa, soaking up the festive ambiance. Visiting Macy's is essential if you've got "Miracle on 34th Street" fans in the group!

After a busy day on the town, it's time to find the best spots for a bachelorette dinner in NYC. These establishments have unique atmospheres and delicious food that will cause you to reminisce for years to come.

An Italian restaurant that is quite literally sprinkled with pink? Yes, please! Pietro Nolita is vibrant, fun and filled with retro pink booths and unique neon signs. Make sure to look out for the especially fun "Pink as…" neon sign.

Pietro Nolita is the perfect spot to sip a cocktail and make colorful memories! They also offer delicious made-in-house pasta, heart-shaped ravioli and pink pancakes.

Embrace the Victorian Era after you see a Broadway play at Lillie's Victorian Establishment in Times Square. Created in honor of actress Lillie Langtry, this restaurant represents a 19th-century Northern Ireland mansion with a luxurious, yet relaxing atmosphere. Enjoy lunch, brunch or dinner, or explore an array of dessert options for afternoon tea.

When you're out on the town until late at night, you're likely going to miss breakfast. Luckily, you'll be just in time for a delicious brunch at Clinton St. Baking Company on the Lower East Side. If you're around in February, make the most of their Pancake Month with specialty pancakes most days of the week. Otherwise, indulge in a buttermilk biscuit sandwich, Mexican coffee or crispy potato pancakes.

We hope you use these New York City bachelorette party ideas to plan a trip as unique and vibrant as the city itself. While you're planning, don't forget to add some essential merch to the mix:

• Stemless wine glass: Gift the bride a stemless wine glass to use throughout the weekend. It's durable, lightweight and made of 100% BPA-free plastic.
• Bride and her babes shirt: Add an extra special touch to the weekend with on-theme shirts. They are made from 100% ring-spun cotton and will be a fun reminder of your trip for years.
• Custom veil: Everybride needs a veil, especially at her NYC bachelorette party. Customize it with her soon-to-be last name, and pick her favorite color because this item needs to match all of her outfits.
  
• Custom sash: It's extra, and we love it. Customize this sash with the bride's future last name, just in case nobody notices her party veil.
