The hotel, was clean but for that price it is not worth it due to the fact that there was not a safe box inside the room, there was a safe box at the front desk; meaning that I had to bring all my personal belongings(cash,ipad,expensive gifts, etc.) to the front desk which I didn’t. Buffet breakfast $15/each. The night before we stood at SLEEP IN HOTEL and it was $20 less including breakfast with a safe box inside the room. We drove to Jersey from Florida.
Stayed for four nights and had a great experience. Friendly, helpful staff and no issues (even though we booked through a third party). The entrance from the main highway is obscure and we lost a few Uber drivers, but no other complaints.
Myles at Front desk has the worst customer service
Overall, the staff was warm and welcoming and the lobby was nicely appointed. The rooms were very dated but clean. I have spent a lot less money for much nicer rooms so I was disappointed with the room interior. Additionally, around 10 pm the fire alarm went off and we evacuated the hotel. After about 20 or so minutes the fire department let us back inside. I overheard them telling another guest that the alarm went off due to the steam from someone's shower. This sounded crazy to me, but if this is indeed what happened, the hotel needs to address this problem immediately. There was also no apology or discount offered from the hotel management at checkout to makeup for the inconvenience.
This was perfect for our short stay in NY. The location is very convenient and the area was safe.
Great service and location. We would stay there again on our next trip.
The hotel was very nice and clean and the staff was helpful. The only thing was the location. its kind of on the wrong side of the road on a strange access road. Which makes it really easy to miss it!! Also while it looks like there are lots of restaurants nearby...the way the traffic pattern works it's a huge pain to get across the highway. The nj transit bus station was a bit of a walk but not on the greatest sidewalk situation(read: no sidewalks!) you also had to be vigilant to push the button to get the bus to stop RIGHT off bc it's the first stop. Thankfully the hotel staff gave us a paper telling us that ! Definitely ask for that ! It's a good price but I would probably pay a bit more to stay accros the street with all the restaurants and such. All and all a good place and a quiet safe location.
If looking to save money on your trip to NYC, this is the way to do it. Price is half of what you pay in the city (and better!). Location is directly across the river, short 20 minute trip (if that) depending on the Lincoln Tunnel traffic. Hotel is clean, staff (for the most part) is friendly and accommodating. Parking is free. The breakfast is a bit pricey if your not looking for a hot breakfast; as you pay the same for an omelette, bacon, potatoes et al, that you would for OJ and a bowl of cereal! (which is just STUPID) but aside from that great stay!
this was a great stay, compared to the prices in NYC over the 911 weekend. the New Jersey bus line took us straight into New York City. From there we took subway and walk. we had fresh towels clean sheets and a comfortable room. highly recommended
We stayed for three nights while visiting family in NYC. This is our third stay at this hotel - the location is very convenient for access to the city. Rooms are clean and comfortable, and customer service is excellent. The only "negative" is very tricky access to the hotel via a tiny driveway that isn't well marked. That said, once you learn how to get there, it's great place to stay.
Great hotel for visiting NYC without having to pay Manhattan rates. I found this hotel to be a quiet refuge from which to stage visits to the big apple. The hotel comes with all the regular amenities of a Hilton and the rooms are spacious.
We stayed here for two nights while visiting NYC. The room, lobby and common areas were clean and very nice. Ample, free parking. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is not free, but was quite good. We have stayed at many hotels, and this was a great value. Only concern was the entrance to the hotel - it is hard to see and not well marked. If you miss it, it is a long way back. Once you pass the hotel exit drive, slow down and be prepared for the small entrance drive! Overall, exceeded our expectations.
The hotel was clean. The staff was helpful. The indoor pool/spa was amazing. The location was good, but it was confusing to get to the hotel. Overall it was a very nice hotel.
The kids loved the swimming pool. After swimming, we ordered pizza and watched a movie. We had a nice time.
We have grandchildren in Hoboken,NJ and have always stayed at another hotel. We were very pleased with the cleaniness of the hotel and the ammenities. It was fun for the grandchildren to go swimming in the indoor pool.
The put me in a smoking room. I did not think hotel reservations defaulted to a smoking room but aparently they do. the front desk manager was relauctant to switch my rooms. He found a non smoking and placed me in that ( I would have canceled if he could not get me in one). I thought the room had a High Def TV but it was an old model TV. I did not really care about that but I still thought to mention it. The continental breakfast was not included. I could have stayed down the street at La Quinta Inn and had a cheaper but just as nice room along with free breakfast. I had to pay 8.50 for some cereal and a waffle (at la Quinta eggs come with breakfast.. here it was a 3$ upcharge). I did not know the price or that I had to pay for breakfast until I overheard the waitress tell other guests about the costs. I would not stay at this hotel again. I expected more from Hilton.
Overall the hotel was very good and the staff helpful. The one bad thing is that the hotel address listed DOES NOT WORK in a GPS or in Mapquest. It took us an additional 30 minutes to get to the parking lot. We had to call the hotel front desk and then use the address for a nearby Home Depot to get close and then follow oral directions into the hotel - be careful!!!
Housekeeping knocked and entered room twice in the am while we were still sleeping almost trying to kick us out. Also check-in was very rude. Confusing because they tell you there is a "shuttle" however it is the NJ transit which costs 3.20 a person one way. Also they explain to you in a brochure when you get to the hotel what stop you are suppose to ask for to get dropped off by the bus to get to the hotel if you arrive in the city. However, clearly this does not help and the NJ transit is not helpful at all either. You are suppose to request to get off at the best buy in secaucus walk to the home depot and it is right behind it. (BTW none of this explained by driver or hotel.) However we went to dinner at the Chart House and I have to say it made up for everything else that had occured in the evening dealing with the hotel. Sites in NY are clearly amazing as well coming from someone that has never been to the city.
continential breakfast was nice. room was neat and clean. staff was friendly if you pass hotel its a long way to turn around
great time, perfect location, clean, quiet

Dear Sarah: I would like to thank you for taking the time to post a review of our hotel after you recent stay with us. I hope you will accept my apologies for not meeting all of your expectations during your stay. Our rooms had renovation work done on them in 2015. This work included wall vinyl in the room and bathroom, bathroom floors. sitting chair with ottoman, window dressing and a new lighting package throughout. The case goods were all refinished to a like new condition. The fire alarms were activated by a guest in another room and the local codes prohibit the hotels from shutting the alarms down until given permission to do so by the fire department. A smoke detector is designed to activate when something enters the sensor device that blocks the sensor and it does not know if it is steam or smoke or something else. Unfortunately another guest had let the shower continue to run creating more steam than the exhaust system could keep up with. Something like this is out of the control of the hotel. All of us appreciate you staying with us while on your trip to the game and we do hope you will stay with us again the next time you visit our area.

Dear Karen: I would like to thank you for taking the time to post a review of our hotel after your recent stay with us. I hope you will accept my apologies for not meeting all of your expectations during your stay. All Hilton Garden Inn locations will have safe deposit boxes available to our guests at the front desk where they are monitored twenty four hours a day. The breakfast at Hilton Garden Inn locations is a one price buffet with ours being $13 plus tax per person and all of the hot food is made to order so that our guests can enjoy the hot selection that they would like. Sleep Inn does not provide that. All of us appreciate you staying with us while on your trip away from home and we do hope you will stay with us again the next time you visit our area.
