Best for
This hotel best suits travelers who want a higher-end stay near Manhattan without being in midtown, thanks to the short walk to the Newport PATH station and proximity to Lower Manhattan sights like One World Trade Center and the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. It’s also a strong pick for guests who value on-site facilities—an indoor lap pool, whirlpool tub, restaurant/bar options, and substantial meeting space.
Travel tips
Plan to use the Newport PATH station (about a 3-minute walk) as your primary link to Manhattan; it’s a convenient base for visiting downtown attractions such as One World Trade Center and the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. If you’re driving, be aware that parking may involve a third-party garage and a short walk. Consider requesting an upgraded room for skyline views if that’s a priority for your stay.
What guests say
Guests frequently highlight the hotel’s convenient location near transit and its strong value for accessing Jersey City events and Manhattan destinations. Clean, well-maintained, and spacious rooms are a recurring positive, with special mentions of comfortable beds and pleasant views in some stays. Service and staff are often described as a standout. On-site food and drink options are also commonly noted as a plus. A recurring drawback mentioned is parking logistics, described as less convenient due to a third-party garage and a short walk, and at least one business-oriented stay described the experience as adequate but not memorable for personal travel.
