Hotel between Boston and Cape Liberty

[redhead621]

Driving down from Boston to Cape Liberty and thinking about driving down day before.  Does anyone have any recommendations for a hotel?  Doesn't need to be in NYC, would rather someplace quieter. Thanks

Whenever we sail out of NY or Cape Liberty, we spend a night a the Hyatt Regency, Greenwich CT.. Very nice property, safe parking, and ample restaurants nearby for dinner.

Just find a hotel near the port. It's not that long of a drive.

There's a cluster of five hotels on International Blvd. in Elizabeth . An outlet mall and a couple of chain restaurants are adjacent.

They're about a 20 or 25 minute drive from the port.

Thank you all for your help

We’re at the Residence Inn in Jersey City and couldn’t be more pleased with the location and price. It’s convenient to most things and at the entrance to the Grove St. Path train station for a quick trip into Manhattan if desired.  Lots of cool restaurants and bars within walking distance.  The only thing that I can’t help you with is the parking as we took the Acela to Newark Penn Station and then the Path train from Newark Penn to Grove Street.

I believe you are among the growing number of people who intelligently opt for rail (rather than air) and public (rather than own-auto) travel to ports. Fuel, traffic. parking, and cost considerations seem likely to bring about a resurgence of rail travel.

Hi,

We are also driving to CL from MA.  Have you found any good hotels on the route?

Depending upon your taste and budget, there are many about an hour from CL - La Quinta just at I-95’s Exit 6 - with a pretty good diner on premises for about $75, and Hyatt Regency in Greenwich for $275 or so.

If that La Quinta is the one in Stamford, CT, we stayed there in March of this year. Just be warned that it is not updated and parts of the room looked pretty old.  It also lacked detailed cleaning, like baseboards and floor corners had accumulated dirt on/in them.  The diner food was OK, but if you're imagining a diner with low prices, this is not it.
