Thanks to the lawyers uh, I marbled the foyer
I stayed at the Hilton in downtown Manhattan a few years ago. Everything is walking distance from there.
Where's the best place to stay (hotel) to fully enjoy NY for the 1st time ?

No. Don't stay in The Financial District. I've stayed at that hotel...harder to get cabs around that area.

Check out Carlton Hotel. Area is perfect. Walking distance to Times Square, but not in the middle of it and a close cab ride to 14th street. http://m.carltonhotelny.com

A lot...going to Newark isn't as bad, but from the airport it's always more since they know people are stuck. It's really easy to take the train...Will get you from Newark to Penn Station then you can cab to the hotel from there. Or, take a shuttle bus. There one that goes directly from Newark to Manhattan (drops you off at three separate locations)...it's like $25 for a return ticket or something.

Bronx Park Motel on Crotona and Fordham Road across from the DMV is a great place. i highly recommend staying there
Staying at a hotel in Times Square will put you in Mid-Town Manhattan where you can walk to popular places or be close to buses or subway stops.
If you stay elsewhere, it will add time to get around to the popular tourist places and cost a bit more to get there too.
Me, I'm cheap. I am okay with staying way outside the city and taking the Metro North commuter train down into Penn Station, which puts me in Mid-Town Manhattan. For some, that train ride adds an hour of one-way commute time and degrades from the NYC experience. So my suggestion for you would be to not take any commuter trains in, NJ Transit from Northern New Jersey or Long Island Railroad. All the trains meet up at Penn Station.
