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

Sony Wonder Technology Lab
Not as much of an infomercial as you'd expect. Both kids and adults love this four-level high-tech science and technology center, which explores communications and information technology. You can experiment with robotics, explore the human body through medical imaging, edit a music video, mix a hit song, design a video game, and save the day at an environmental command center. The lab also features the first high-definition interactive theater in the United States. Admission is absolutely free; this place is extremely popular, however, so it's wise to make reservations in advance. Reservations can be made up to 2 weeks in advance by calling tel. 212/833-5414 on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday between 11am and 4pm. Otherwise, you may not get in, or you may get tickets that require you to return at a different time.

National Museum of the American Indian, George Gustav Heye Center
This impressive collection represents the Smithsonian Institution. The collection will be housed in New York only until its new home on the Mall in Washington, D.C., is completed in 2004. The collection spans more than 10,000 years of native heritage, gathered a century ago mainly by New York banking millionaire George Gustav Heye. About 70% of the collection is dedicated to the natives of North America and Hawaii; the rest represents the cultures of Mexico and Central and South America. There's a wealth of material here, but it's not as well organized as it could be. The museum also hosts temporary themed exhibitions and interpretive programs, plus free storytelling, music, and dance presentations.The museum is housed in the beautiful 1907 beaux arts U.S. Customs House, designed by Cass Gilbert and a National Historic Landmark that's worth a look in its own right.

Brooklyn Botanic Garden
Just down the street from the Brooklyn Museum of Art (below) is the most popular botanic garden in the city. This peaceful 52-acre sanctuary is at its most spectacular in May, when thousands of deep pink blossoms of cherry trees are abloom. Well worth seeing is the spectacular Cranford Rose Garden, one of the largest and finest in the country; the Shakespeare Garden, an English garden featuring plants mentioned in his writings; a Children's Garden; the Osborne Garden, a 3-acre formal garden; the Fragrance Garden, designed for the blind but appreciated by all noses; and the extraordinary Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden. The renowned C. V. Starr Bonsai Museum is home to the world's oldest and largest collection of bonsai, while the impressive $2.5 million Steinhardt Conservatory holds the garden's extensive indoor plant collection.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Newark area, including:

WJ Hotel
This is one of the few affordable hotels situated in the heart of my favorite Manhattan neighborhood for dining, Hell's Kitchen. Anyone who stayed here when the WJ was the Washington Jefferson won't recognize the joint after a recent renovation. The lobby has tripled in size and taken on a warm and welcoming ambience, with a friendly, snappily attired staff and more than a dash of designer style. Snazzy red-carpeted halls lead to rooms that are small -- don't say I didn't warn you -- but very attractively outfitted in a palette of soft grays. Nice touches include platform beds with generous cushioned headboards and fluffy goose-down comforters. The gorgeous limestone-and-slate bathrooms are stylish and relatively spacious, although some have showers only. Score 1 of the 18 king rooms if you can; they're roomy and boast a pullout love seat as well as a Jacuzzi tub in the bathroom. The Japanese restaurant in the hotel is just a sample of some of the different ethnic cuisines you will find in the neighborhood.

Red Roof Inn
Manhattan's first, and only, Red Roof Inn offers welcome relief from Midtown's high-priced hotel scene. The hotel occupies a former office building that was gutted and laid out fresh, allowing for more spacious rooms and bathrooms than you'll usually find in this price category. The high-ceilinged lobby feels smarter than most in this price range, and elevators are quiet and efficient. What's more, in-room amenities are better than most competitors,' and furnishings are fresh, brand-new, and comfortable. The location -- on a bright, bustling block lined with nice hotels and affordable Korean restaurants, just a stone's throw from the Empire State Building and Herald Square -- is excellent. It's usually easy to snag a room for less than $150 if you book well in advance; be sure to compare the rates offered by Apple Core Hotel's reservation line (the management company) and those quoted on Red Roof's national reservation line and website, as they can vary significantly. A complimentary continental breakfast adds to the good value.

Waldorf-Astoria and the Waldorf Towers
If you are looking for the epitome of old school elegance, you can't do better than the Waldorf-Astoria. This massive 1-square-block Art-Deco masterpiece is not only a hotel icon, it's a genuine New York City landmark. Here you'll find a lobby so big and grand, it's reminiscent of Grand Central Station, including having its own signature clock. With over 1,000 rooms, the pace can be hectic, and at times the lines for checking in might remind you of the post office. Thankfully, service here is much more efficient than the post office and it won't be long before you're in your room. And what rooms they are; no two the same, yet all are airy, with high ceilings, traditional decor, comfortable linens and beds, and spacious marble bathrooms, along with fax machines and high-speed Internet access. If you crave more luxury, book a room on the Astoria level, which features huge suites, deluxe bathroom amenities, access to the clubby Astoria Lounge for breakfast or afternoon hors d'oeuvres, and free entry to the hotel's fitness club (other guests pay a fee); for even more opulence, try a suite in the Waldorf Towers, where most rooms are bigger than New York City apartments.One of three bars in the hotel, Sir Harry's Bar, off the lobby, is the main gathering spot for a pre- or post-dinner cocktail, but even better is the Bull and Bear, with its signature round mahogany bar, classic original cocktail creations, and celebrated steaks. Oscars, which also has a bar, offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and Inagiku serves innovative Japanese cuisine.Facilities: 3 restaurants; 4 bars; 3,000-sq.-ft. fitness center and excellent spa; concierge and theater desk; expansive 24-hr. business center; salon; 24-hr. room service; dry cleaning/laundry service; executive-level rooms. Tower rooms include butler service, Clefs d'Or concierge.
