We have all heard that New York City is considered the “fifth lady” of Sex and the City. In recent weeks there has been a boost in tourism in the Big Apple as anticipation of the movie’s release builds. And everyone is looking for authentic locations used in the movie. OLV was the ONLY source for daily filming locations throughout the entire movie shoot last fall, making us THE AUTHORITY on SATC movie locations!
Here are our top locations from the movie so you know where to stay, where to eat, and what to do to have the ultimate Sex and the City: The Movie weekend in NYC!
Day 1
First, stay at the Hotel Giraffe which was one of the first filming locations for the movie. For dinner, make reservations at Gordon Ramsay at the London in London NYC and don’t forget to order a cosmo.
Day 2
In the morning, stop by Bryant Park and take a ride on the carousel just like Charlotte, Lily, and Harry. Enjoy the park while you are there, it can be some of the best people watching in the world. After your carousel ride, take a walk over to the New York Public Library where Carrie and Big got married in the film. (Or did they?) If you really want to walk in Carrie’s footsteps take a detour to the Conde Nast building where the Vogue offices are and where scenes for the movie were filmed back in October.
Later, make dinner reservations at Lumi, where a very pregnant Charlotte had a confrontation with Mr. Big .
Day 3
In the morning, before leaving the city, head over to the Starbucks on Astor Place and Layfayette for a tall latte and a look at where Carrie and Louise had coffee together in the movie. You’re weekend won’t be cheap but for any true SATC fan, it will be worth it!
