paradise4me Posted March 30, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 30, 2023 We are cruising in October and looking for hotel recommendations flying into Newark cruising out of Cape Liberty. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njhorseman Posted March 30, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 30, 2023 Do you have any brands you prefer? Any budget considerations? Need anything more than a place to sleep? There are so many hotels that no one can say what's right for you without your doing at least a little research on your own and then coming back with questions. A good place to start looking is a cluster of five hotels on International Boulevard in Elizabeth that are adjacent to The Mills at Jersey Gardens mall, but those hotels are far from the only possibilities.

paradise4me Posted March 30, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted March 30, 2023 No we just need a one night clean sleep close to the port. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks The hotels on International Boulevard are about a 20 minute drive to Cape Liberty, which is about as close as you're going to get. Some other hotels in the area near EWR are about the same distance. There aren't any hotels in the immediate vicinity of the port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted March 31, 2023 #5 Share Posted March 31, 2023 We've booked the Hampton Inn on International Blvd. for our October 2023 Canada NE cruise. Newly refurbished and we've always enjoyed this location. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was waiting for someone to promote that hotel, certainly not you. Since they have hourly rates at that hotel, it might be of use for those disembarking and waiting for an evening flight out of EWR. 🤣 L O L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not implying that it is but there are many people that go to business meetings in different locations where they are making presentations . I would at times go by Amtrak with the President of the company I worked for to cities all over the east coast.We would take Amtrak to the city and book a hotel close to our destination to finalize our presentation .We booked a room for two hours usually .There were always people there for the same reason.

You originally posted "what about Hudson Plaza Motel in Bayonne?" in response to the op. You learned of this motel by using Google and know nothing of it which is further indicated by your use of a question mark. I responded more so that people traveling to Cape Liberty as opposed to yourself, are aware that this motel chargers hourly rates and all that implies. You felt the need to point out that other 'upscale' hotels offer hourly rates, which has nothing to do with a motel in Bayonne. If you truly need to be educated as what that means I can inform you but I gave you the benefit of the doubt. I did not think it was necessary for me to educate you as you felt you needed to educate me, which by the way I never indicated I needed to be. I don't want visitors to think this motel is a viable option. I have no idea what point you are trying to make by comparing this motel to upscale hotels around the world. Maybe you will stay overnight there and you can inform the board of your experience. That would be helpful!

I am totally disabled and will never again have the opportunity to spend any time in a hotel. I was not refuting anything you said only to clarify that not every place of lodging that may charge by 5he hour is in business for sexual dalliances.

I used to live in Bayonne, passed that motel everyday going to college. There were reports in the newspaper quite frequently about drug arrests or other nefarious activity being raided by Bayonne's finest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
