Stay in New Jersey. You will save lots of money. Plus you are minutes outside of NYC.

Hard to find 'cheap' accomodation in Manhattan, although Go Travel have offers for NY from £300pp inc flights. The downfall there is that you dont know which hotel you get 'til you get there. You are given a set of 4 possibilitiesand find out on arrival.
I would recommend trying Expedia.co.uk/Thomson/Thomas Cook and once you find something in your price range use Trip Advisor. You could also get some ideas from a travel agent. Would always recommend Trip Advisor though - reviews, candid pics - perfect. http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk
I have been twice. The first time I stayed in a v. cheap Holiday Inn - wouldnt recommend it. Cheap, but you could tell.
Second time I stayed at the Westin Times Square. I would recommend there, although slightly pricey.
See the list in order of popularity here - http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g60763-New_York_City_New_York-Hotels.html
Other than that, you'll have a GREAT time - enjoy!
PS Dont pay for a transfer if you're landing at JFK - taxi is a standard $50 - you prob won't get a cheaper rate.

if you type in cityandshow,you'll get the website,the hotels there are the best rates i've seen on the net,i'm going to ny this year also but as all i'll be doing is sleeping i dont need the ritz,me and my friend got 4 nights at the hotel pennsylvania which is in midtown manhattan,fab location,for £370 for both of us for the 4 nights,fab price,a lotta folk say its a naff hotel,not very clean etc,then again a lotta folk say its cool,if you're only wanting to put your head down you couldn't ask for a more central locationif you're going to be sightseeing,have a good time in ny..i cant wait!

I assume by New York, you mean Manhattan? If you do, I.m afraid there is nothing cheap in Manhattan. You could try checking hotels on expedia.co.uk...
New York is a fantastic city, have fun!

stay in Brooklyn or New Jersey, there are hotels there and it is very easy to get into Manhattan
