During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Bateaux New York
The most elegant and romantic of New York's evening dinner cruises. Cruises are aboard the Celestial, designed to accommodate 300 guests with two suites, one dance floor, two outdoor strolling decks, a state-of-the-art sound system, and windows galore. Dinner is a three-course sit-down affair, with jackets and ties suggested for men, evening dresses for women. The food isn't what you'd get at Jean-Georges, but Bateaux (sister to egalitarian Spirit Cruises, below) offers a very nice supper club-style night on the town, and the views are fabulous. A live quartet entertains with jazz standards and pop vocal tunes.

Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum
It's been called a bun, a snail, a concrete tornado, and even a giant wedding cake; bring your kids, and they'll probably see it as New York's coolest opportunity for skateboarding. Whatever description you choose to apply, Frank Lloyd Wright's only New York building, completed in 1959, is best summed up as a brilliant work of architecture -- so consistently brilliant that it competes with the art for your attention. If you're looking for the city's best modern art, head to MoMA or the Whitney first; come to the Guggenheim to see the house.It's easy to see the bulk of what's on display in 2 to 4 hours. Inside, a spiraling rotunda circles over a slowly inclined ramp that leads you past changing exhibits that, in the past, have ranged from Matthew Barney: The Cremaster Cycle to Norman Rockwell: Pictures for the American People, said to be the most comprehensive exhibit ever of the beloved painter's works. Usually the progression is counterintuitive: from the first floor up, rather than from the sixth floor down. If you're not sure, ask a guard before you begin. Permanent exhibits of 19th- and 20th-century art, including strong holdings of Kandinsky, Klee, Picasso, and French Impressionists, occupy a stark annex called the Tower Galleries, an addition (accessible at every level) that some critics claimed made the entire structure look like a toilet bowl backed by a water tank (judge for yourself -- I think there may be something to that view).The Guggenheim runs some interesting special programs, including free docent tours daily, a limited schedule of lectures, free family films, avant-garde screenings for grown-ups, curator-led guided gallery tours on select Friday afternoons, and the World Beat Jazz Series, which resounds through the rotunda on Friday and Saturday from 5 to 8pm.

Battery Park
As you traverse Manhattan's concrete canyons, it's sometimes easy to forget that you're actually on an island. But here, at Manhattan's southernmost tip, you get the very real sense that just out past Liberty, Ellis, and Staten islands is the vast Atlantic Ocean.The 21-acre park is named for the cannons built to defend residents after the American Revolution. Castle Clinton National Monument (the place to purchase tickets for the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island ferry; see listings earlier in this chapter) was built as a fort before the War of 1812, though it was never used as such. The 22-ton bronze sphere by Fritz Koenig that was recovered from the rubble of the World Trade Center, where it stood on the plaza between the two Twin Towers as a symbol of global peace, now stands -- severely damaged but still whole. This may be the finest place in the city to pay tribute to those who were lost.Besides the requisite T-shirt vendors and hot-dog carts, you'll find several statues and memorials scattered throughout the park. This is quite the civilized park, with lots of STAY OFF THE GRASS! signs and Wall Streeters eating deli sandwiches on the many park benches. Pull up your own bench for a good view out across the harbor.

The Peninsula-New York
Housed in a 1905 landmark building, the Peninsula is now a state-of-the-art stunner. Inside, all that's left of the beaux arts past is the marvelous wedding-cake ceiling in the lobby. Work your way past the redecorated public floors and everything's brand-new; the guest room floors were totally gutted and laid out afresh, allowing for high-speed wiring, better room configurations, and what may be the most fabulous bathrooms in the city.The decor is a rich mix of Art Nouveau, vibrant Asian elements, and contemporary art. Every room boasts lots of storage and counter space, plus fabulous linens. But the real news is the technology, which includes a room-wide speaker system and mood lighting; an executive workstation with desk-level inputs, fax, and dual-line speakerphones; a bedside panel for everything, from climate controls to the DO NOT DISTURB sign; and even a door-side weather display. Best of all are the huge marble bathrooms where a tub-level panel allows you to control the speaker system, answer the phone, and, if you're in any room above the lowest (superior) level, control the bathroom TV (now that is happy excess). A faultless concierge desk, tri-level rooftop health club and spa, and the spectacular Pen Top Bar, round out the fabulousness.Facilities: Restaurant; rooftop bar; library-style lounge for afternoon tea and cocktails; tri-level rooftop health club and spa with heated pool, exercise classes, whirlpool, sauna, and sun deck; 24-hr. concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; babysitting; dry cleaning/laundry service. In room: A/C, TV w/pay movies, fax, wireless Internet, and T1 connectivity, minibar, hair dryer, laptop-size safe, complimentary "water bar" with 5 choices of bottled water.

Skyline Hotel
This nice, newly renovated motor hotel offers predictable comforts and some uncommon extras -- inexpensive storage parking ($8 per day) and a lovely indoor pool -- that make it a very good value. A pleasant lobby leads to motel-standard rooms that were, thankfully, recently renovated, and are bigger than most in this price range. There are two room categories: standard, with two twin beds, and deluxe, with either a king bed with sofa or a queen bed. The deluxe with king and sofa is best for families. They boast decent-size closets, small work desks (in most), and double-paned windows that open to let fresh air in, and shut out a surprising amount of street noise when closed. Some rooms have brand-new bathrooms, but the older ones are still fine. Everything is very well kept. Another plus for the family is the pool, which has a nicely tiled deck and plush deck chairs, but it's only open limited hours, so call ahead if it matters.

The Marcel
Being budget-challenged doesn't mean you have to settle for boring. This Gramercy Park hotel offers high style and a super-hip scene at low, low prices. Thanks to designers Goodman Charlton, who love to infuse retro styles with futuristic freshness, the Marcel sits on the cutting edge style-wise. Fab faux Mod Squad-era Scandinavian stylings in the lobby lead to guest rooms boasting gorgeous blond-wood built-ins that make clever use of limited space, and a bold geometric cushioned headboard adds a downright luxurious flair. The designer furnishings and textiles look and feel expensive, even if the somewhat lumpy beds don't; still, budget travelers will be thrilled. Even if the service isn't fabulous or the little details aren't perfect, you should feel like you're getting a great deal here.One of the strongest appeals of the Marcel is Spread (www.spreadnyc.com), a restaurant/lounge hybrid offering a creative small plates menu, a first-rate sushi bar, terrific cocktails, and a blast of an after-dark scene. The subterranean lounge Coal is an even more seductive space.
