cruisetmc Posted March 5, 2006 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2006 We are considering one of the Victory New England cruises. Airfares are the best into Newark. Can anyone recommend a good hotel close to the airport for a precruise and a transportation to the port the next day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatam Posted March 5, 2006 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2006 We are considering one of the Victory New England cruises. Airfares are the best into Newark. Can anyone recommend a good hotel close to the airport for a precruise and a transportation to the port the next day? Do NOT book the Newark Hilton Gateway. It is a really crappy hotel. There is a Marriott close to the airport. Haven't stayed there for a couple of years, so can't give a recent report. If you want to take a chance, bid Priceline for either Elizabeth or Meadowlands. All 3* hotels in those two zones can usually be bid for $65.00 or so. The Sheraton Meadowlands is a GREAT hotel. Farther from the airport, but the amenities are fantastic.

JJPNYC Posted March 5, 2006 #3 Share Posted March 5, 2006 The Marriott at the airport is really nice. I've also stayed at the Wyndham which is just off to the south of the airport - really nice as well. You may also want to consider the Jersey City area - there's a great Hyatt right on the waterfront and there are the other road-warrior hotels nearby as well. Be forewarned though that car service from NJ to NYC is a bit more expensive so any savings garnered by cheap airfares into EWR or hotels in NJ may be off-set by the car fare.
