Hotels near Newark Symphony Hall

"The hotel overall was fine. I think the breakfast was $25 is overpriced for what they offer. Our room was OK inside outside of the room is quite dirty, I can spot a few that I’m sure hasn’t been touched in a long time I love the vending machine in the lobby with medications and a few other things, it’s very convenient However, the biggest problem we both had was the staff. We got there around 3:30 and was told we cannot check in until 4 PM sharp, when 4 PM p.m. I got in line and was told again that nothing is ready so come back in line at 4:30 and people were already in line. It was so confusing whether should I leave the line and sit down or stay in line though so we left the line and sit down again. But, the line was extremely long and we finally got to the front desk. The staff and told me that my room is not available, we booked a king size room, and nothing is available and she refuse to help. We called her out on her and she said bye to us and brush us off to the manager. The manager was extremely professional and very nice guy, so he apologized for her. It was the most ridiculous experience we have ever had to a front desk staff. Her rudeness was unbearable and unacceptable."

"Restaurant at hotel was a little pricey. The parking is small and charged a daily rate. If you don’t have to driving around it’s great. Coming and go was a little annoying though. Overall, experience was great. Clean hotel, decent rooms. Didn’t need anything during our stay. Would stay again"

"Overpriced parking ($60 per night - Mar 2026), small beds in rooms, small refrigerator in room, no microwave in rooms, must have key card to access elevator, staff were rude. This hotel does however offer easy access to Newark Penn Station subway, and had several good choices open during portions of the day. The restaurant onsite was very expensive and did not offer many choices. The parking is quoted as covered parking, however, there was limited garage parking, the rest was outside. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable, but they were doubles and staff indicated that rollaway beds were not allowed in a double room, despite them being available. When I called the hotel prior to arrival to ask a question, the staff had NO IDEA if the hotel offered in/out privileges to its guests. Its just very frustrating when you spend a decent amount of money for a nice hotel and you get mediocre service/facility. I expected more from a Hilton. "
