In my opinion, delivery to a hotel is a mistake, and your purchase is far too likely to go missing, because there is no rigorous method to check ID at every handover.

In my opinion, you would be far better served by picking up the purchase at an Apple store, where they will check Identification before handing over anything. There are several in different parts of New York City.

The Apple Store on Fifth Avenue at Central Park South (50th St) is a really interesting place, with a two-story tall all-glass entrance, a glass staircase, and the bulk of store under the plaza.

The prices quoted at the Apple online store are for the goods ONLY. Depending on where they are delivered, you must ADD state and local Sales tax. Nothing is delivered with the tax included in the payment.

Preliminary information I could find suggest at least 8 percent Sales Tax inside New York City.

There is NO refund of sales tax for goods that are exported.

A MacBook Pro new in the box will pay the highest tax rate on entering your county. A MacBook Pro carried in hand is used, and could pay far less. Be sure to check with your customs authority to avoid surprises.
