Top Downtown Jersey City Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Grand Central New York

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was clean, beautiful! Staff was super friendly, Rosa from the front desk was very welcoming and helped a lot. Definitely will stay again!"

Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

8/10 Good

"Location is amazing. Staff is very helpful and friendly. The only reason I have it a 4 star instead of 5 is due to the extreme noise leveling Times Square. I would not recommend booking if you are sensitive to very loud music because it will come into your room till all hours of the night"

YOTEL New York Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"I was solo so the rooms, while small, were outfitted with everything I needed. The bed was a reclining bed so I was able to elevate or move it back to a sleeping position which was so nice. There was shampoo conditioner and body wash in the shower with a rainfall shower head. I also had a blow dryer. I got the room with a city view and it was stunning from the 25th floor. I dropped my bags when I arrived for a small fee and the gentlemen who assisted were so very helpful courteous and kind. I ate dinner the first night at the bar and it was a delicious flatbread pizza. Water and ice was right next to my room so that was a happy convenience. I recommend this hotel highly."
