Whether you’re are hard-core fan or just going to gawk at Maria Sharapova, the US Open Grand Slam has something for everyone. Where to stay while attending the Open can cause questions of affordability, appropriateness and availability to rear their heads.  Now you can find the perfect hotel for your level of “fan-dome.”  Oyster Hotel Reviews  has compiled a list of hotels for every type of fan, and they're all convenient to the 7 subway line that heads straight to the tennis center. 

For the Hard-Core Fan
The Grand Hyatt is Oyster's top pick for hard-core fans. Not only is it on the same block as the Grand Central stop on the 7 subway line, it's also a good place to rub elbows with your favorite tennis stars, as players have stayed at the hotel in the past.

For the Tennis Player
If you like to play tennis as well as watch it, the Millenium UN Plaza is your best bet, as it's the only hotel in Manhattan with its own indoor tennis court. If you're lucky, you even might see some tennis stars practicing here; the Williams sisters were spotted warming up on the court before the US Open a few years ago.

For the Pampered Player
Even though you probably didn't strain your muscles in a grueling match, even watching the players can be exhausting, and the 14,000-square-foot Guerlain Spa at The Waldorf Astoria offers a wide range of indulgent (and pricey) treatments.

Family Friendly Hotel
The Affinia Fifty earned a spot on our family-friendly roundup for its safe, convenient location, its laid-back lounge with plenty of board games, and its popular "Jet-Set Kids" promotion, where young guests receive a New York City guidebook for kids, plus NYC stickers, a scrapbook, and even a digital camera.
