Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and this hotel nails it. You're only a short PATH train ride from Manhattan, meaning you can catch a show in the city and be back in your comfy room in under 20 minutes. The neighborhood is quieter than staying in Midtown, so it’s perfect for when you want to wind down.

• Groups of friends looking for easy access to NYC without the chaos
• Solo travelers ticking a concert off their bucket list
• Couples making a romantic weekend of music and skyline views
• Fans needing a quiet space to recharge after a show
• Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value just outside the city

Hungry after the show? Fire & Oak, the hotel’s on-site restaurant, serves up grill-inspired dishes in a cozy, upscale setting. For something more casual, the Half Moon Lobby Lounge offers drinks and lighter bites. While there's no 24-hour room service, the hotel’s location puts you within walking distance of late-night eateries in Jersey City. And yes, there's breakfast available—perfect for sleeping in and refueling.

Nightlife Options

Though there’s no on-site live music, the hotel’s lounge is a great spot for a nightcap. Plus, you're just across the river from NYC's full nightlife scene—from dive bars and jazz clubs to rooftop lounges. Prefer local?

Guests love the clean, modern rooms and unbeatable location for accessing both Jersey City and Manhattan. Many mention the friendly staff and the hotel’s peaceful atmosphere. The views of the Manhattan skyline are a frequent highlight, especially from higher floors.

Areas for Improvement

Wi-Fi is available, but it's not free unless you're a Marriott Bonvoy member—so plan ahead if you want to stream those concert clips. Also, while the lobby bar is nice, some guests wish there were more late-night food options on-site.
