Waterfront style and class only minutes from Manhattan

Quiet, classy and comfortable, The Westin Jersey City Newport beckons as a waterfront haven in the Jersey City financial district. Soaring public spaces and designer decor team up with tranquil guest rooms that afford Big Apple views. Spend a day meandering through the adjacent mall or take the train one block away for a fast 10-minute escape into Manhattan. A heated indoor pool provides year-round refreshment, while the fitness center offers variety and room to move. Open for lunch and dinner, the restaurant is as wildly stylish as the lobby lounge.

Highlights

  • Bright, heated indoor pool with skylights, whirlpool and spacious fitness center
  • Dramatic public spaces with the attractive Half Moon Lobby Lounge
  • Most rooms have waterfront and NYC skyline views
  • One block to PATH train into Manhattan and minutes from the Holland Tunnel and New Jersey Turnpike
  • Adjacent to the 1.2-million-square-foot Newport Centre Mall

In the bathroom, look for a dual showerhead, signature bath amenities and curved shower rod. Request a Westin Workout Room for a 375-square-foot, fitness-inspired room with choice of either a LifeFitness™ Treadmill or Spinning Cycle plus DVD workouts and strength training equipment. Premium Rooms feature a curved wall of windows for panoramic Hudson River views. Both wired and wireless Internet are available (fees apply).

Great deal

Wasn't in the hotel much, but when the day ended and it was time to go to sleep, it was like heaven. The hotel was peaceful and the rooms are so comfortable, you almost don't want to leave the room. Would definitely stay there again.

Fantastic Service

Great location if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of New York City, but close and convenient enough to get around via path train and subway

The Westin

We really liked the rooms and the comfy beds. I have never stayed in a nicer room. The hotel is located right by the path train, so convient to transporation. Also a shopping mall right next door, so great if your looking for inexpensive food.

Short walk across the street to path train and shopping mall. This area was a bit farther by taxi, so you would pay more then if you stay right in Manhatten area.

Excellent Hotel with helpful staff

When I arrived the staff welcomed me, and thanked me for staying at the Westin. I was able to get into my room early and offered me a better room if i wanted to wait for it, but any room was fine with me. I went up to room and was surprised at how big the room was and very well decorated. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom shower was awesome too. The hotel was very close to the PATH which took you right into Manhattan, very safe location, with a beautiful view. The only negative was the fitness room, they only had two elliptical machines and they were both taken when I wanted to workout. Otherwise, fitness center was nice, with new state of the art equipment. I would recommend this hotel and when visiting again, I will definitely come back.

The Westin was a great place to stay

The hotel was clean and quiet, two prerequisites that I always have. The staff was friendly and engineering staff responded quickly and efficiently to the two minor issues we had during our stay. I was very surprised at how close the path train and the Shoprite were in proximity to the hotel. This is the perfect place to stay for day trips to the city and/or business in a place that is well away from noise.

Buy the metro cards that service both the path trains and the subway system in NY rather than the one-way/round trip path tickets.
