Comfort-First Stay Near Top NJ and NYC Venues
Modern and dependable, the
Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Mahwah offers a clean, comfortable stay in a quiet location that's still within driving distance of major concert venues like MetLife Stadium and The Palisades Center. This 3-star hotel combines convenience with comfort, featuring free WiFi, an indoor pool, and a fitness center to help guests unwind or recharge before and after the show.
Set just off Route 17 in Mahwah, NJ, the hotel has a relaxed suburban feel, making it a great choice for fans who want to escape the city noise after a loud night out.
Why Concert-goers love it
Concert fans appreciate the
late 12:00 PM check-out—perfect after a night of encores—and the
24-hour front desk that makes late arrivals smooth and stress-free. While not walkable to venues, it’s a convenient base for those attending shows at
MetLife Stadium or heading into NYC via nearby transit options like Metro-North Harriman Station, just 20 miles away. Plus, it’s far enough from the main roads to offer a
peaceful night’s sleep—even after a high-energy set.
Who this Hotel is great for
- Groups of friends looking for an affordable and comfortable base before and after the show
- Solo travelers catching a big-name artist or festival
- Couples planning a low-key concert weekend
- Fans who want a relaxing space away from the post-show buzz
- Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing comfort
Food and Drink Options
The hotel offers
free breakfast—a lifesaver after a late night. While there’s no on-site restaurant,
room service is available, and there are plenty of eateries nearby for a quick bite before or after the show. It's not a foodie destination, but you’ll find what you need within a short drive.
Nightlife Options
If you're looking to keep the night going, you'll need to venture out. There’s no on-site bar or live music venue, but nearby Mahwah and the surrounding areas offer
casual bars and lounges. For a livelier scene, NYC is just a train ride away.
What People Say

clean rooms, friendly staff, and quiet atmosphere. Many reviews mention the
great value for the price and the ease of getting to concerts at larger venues. The

Areas for Improvement
While the location is convenient by car, some guests note that
you'll need your own transportation—public transit access is limited. Also, don’t expect luxury extras or nightlife on-site, but most agree the hotel delivers exactly what it promises: a clean, quiet place to recharge.
The Bottom Line
If you're headed to a big show and want a
stress-free, budget-friendly stay with comfort and quiet, Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Mahwah hits the right notes.
