The Spotlight on La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Clifton

Comfortable Convenience Near Big Shows

Modern and welcoming, La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Clifton offers a laid-back stay just over 5 miles from MetLife Stadium and under 10 miles from the New York Port Authority Bus Terminal. Set right off Route 3 East in northern New Jersey, this hotel blends suburban ease with quick access to concerts, sporting events, and the NYC music scene. With amenities like an indoor pool, fitness center, and free WiFi, it’s a solid pick for travelers seeking comfort without the Manhattan price tag.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans love how close this hotel is to MetLife Stadium — just a short ride away — and appreciate the direct access to Manhattan via nearby transit. The 24-hour front desk and lobby market mean late-night arrivals or post-show cravings are never a problem. Plus, the vibe is quiet enough to recover after a night of dancing and singing. With check-in at 3:00 PM and checkout at 11:00 AM, there's plenty of time to rest up before and after the show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends heading to a big concert or game
  • Solo travelers catching a long-awaited tour stop
  • Couples enjoying a weekend music getaway
  • Fans seeking peace and quiet after the encore
  • Budget-conscious travelers who want value and convenience

Food and Drink Options

  • 24-hour Bright Side Market for snacks, drinks, and quick meals
  • On-site restaurant available for easy dining in
  • Several walkable dining options nearby

Nightlife Options

  • Close to local bars and lounges in Clifton and nearby towns
  • Easy access to NYC nightlife – just under 10 miles to Midtown
  • Great spot to unwind after a show without the city noise

What People Say

  • Guests praise the hotel’s clean and spacious rooms
  • Consistently noted for its friendly, helpful staff at the front desk
  • Visitors love the free parking and breakfast — a rare combo near NYC
  • Location is a hit for those heading to events at MetLife or into Manhattan

Areas for Improvement

  • The decor is a bit dated — but the comfort and cleanliness make up for it

Easy access, 9-min walk to...

Liked: I like the location; as for a person not from the US or from NJ, directions are pretty simple, access to the location is very straightforward, and the bus stop going to and from Port Authority in Manhattan is near (9-minute walk). There's a Target close by, a Costco, and food establishments are also close by, and the American Dream mall is just a few minutes drive. Parking is free.
Disliked: The breakfast, options are only scrambled egg (from a premade mixture), sausage, toast and bagel, and waffle. The sausage is a tad bigger than a slider patty.
