CITY GUIDE also provides our clients with custom event opportunities
to enhance their visibility within the NYC concierge community.
Over the past 30 years, CITY GUIDE has forged legendarily strong
relationships with the City’s concierges. Our concierge events, which take
place at least twice a month, introduce our advertisers’ venues, services,
and products to Manhattan concierges, enabling them to make informed
choices and recommendations that lead their guests directly to our
partners’ businesses. CITY GUIDE is also a proud sponsor of New York’s
annual Concierge Choice Awards, which takes place in September, and

NYC VISITOR MARKET
NYC Tourism Continues to Grow
Did You Know That NYC Achieved Record Breaking Tourism Levels in 2012?
NYC is ranked #1 of all U.S. travel destinations. When visitors arrive, they stay at hotels, shop, dine, and visit
tourist attractions, museums and historical sites. These visitors offer a tremendous revenue opportunity for
60
local NYC businesses.
50
More Tourists, More Spending
40
There were 52.0 million+ tourists in 2012. International markets represented 33% of all trips, but accounted
30
for nearly half of total visitor spending. At a time when visitors
are doing so much of the spending, doesn’t it
makes sense to reach as many of them as you can?

Hotel Concierges speak on behalf of CITY GUIDE
“Our guests just love the maps.
[It’s] the tourists’ favorite.”
— George Domenick,
Ritz Carlton, Central Park
“CITY GUIDE has the great advantage of being a weekly publication as
opposed to a monthly, which give us a more frequent update as to what is
happening on our city. I also find the theater locator very useful. Their
website is also very user friendly and has a terrific events section which we
— Maria Bortoluzzi, Chief Concierge
use on a regular basis”.
Le Parker Meridien Hotel
“ I applaud CITY GUIDE for continuously providing our visitors a
complete and informative magazine every week. It is compact, easy to
read through and loaded with fun information on everything NYC has
to offer. This little guide always disappears from our desk. Thumbs up!
— Polina Roze, Concierge
Keep up the great work.”
New York Marriott Marquis
“CITY GUIDE is the guide for all our guests—we love its weekly format.
All the content of the theatre, shops, restaurants and attractions is easy to
read and now we promote the website for more ideas, coupons and making
a perfect trip for our guests.”
— Jonathan Henthorne, Concierge
Waldorf Astoria
“CITY GUIDE is prominently displayed behind our desk. The Concierge
and guests enjoy it alike because its convenient in size, is a weekly so the
information is updated regularly. We make great use of the theater map as
well to direct guests to the show they want to see”
— Melody Williamson, Chief Concierge

TWITTER & FACEBOOK
Online social media such as Twitter and Facebook has quickly become an integral part of our daily
lives, and CITY GUIDE has developed a strong online presence through Twitter (@CityGuideNYC)
and Facebook (www.facebook.com/CityGuideNY). These tools allow us to present information—
ranging from NYC-centric news stories to coupon alerts to links to stories on our main site—to a
rapidly expanding group of followers and “friends” (as well as search engines such as Google) quickly
and efficiently. And if our advertisers have their own Twitter and Facebook accounts, we can share
their relevant news with our online community.
