Sonesta Simply Suites Jersey City

I was pleased with our choice to stay here. We are a family of 4 and stayed here for 3 weeks during the Christmas holidays. I had read some not-so-great reviews and was unsure what to expect but we were very happy with this hotel. It was much more affordable to stay here and take the PATH train than comparable places in NY. The PATH train is an easy 9-minute walk. We had no issues using it or the metro. Our view was lovely- the NY skyline and the World Trade Center were visible from our window. The room was big enough for the 4 of us and was clean. Free washers and dryers are nice with a longer stay, and we used the kitchenette. The staff were friendly. There are restaurants, grocery stores, a mall, a target, and more all within walking distance or a short Uber ride. The area was safe and pleasant to walk along the water. Liberty State Park is a short drive from the hotel.

Juan at reception was excellent, always cheerful and even great with some difficult customers we saw once or twice. The room was comfortable and clean, any issues were fixed quickly and without fuss. We loved the free laundry facilities and the location close to two PATH stations and lines meant that you aren't more than a few minutes from Manhattan. You're also close enough to the great restaurants and shops of Newark Ave. It was a lot cheaper to stay here than in Manhattan and definitely worth it.

Our stay at Sonesta Simply Suites Jersey City was very comfortable. The room was spacious, homey, and equipped with kitchen appliances, making it feel like a home away from home. They also offer additional appliances like crockpots and waffle makers upon request and availability, which was a nice touch. The on-site free laundry facilities were incredibly convenient—you can either purchase detergent at reception or use machines with built-in detergent options for a small fee. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel’s location near the train station made getting to Manhattan quick and easy. A helpful tip: when commuting to and from Manhattan, be cautious with taxi drivers to avoid being overcharged. Overall, a very pleasant stay that we would highly recommend!

We were very happy staying here for our NY stay. It is an easy walk to the PATH station across to Manhattan and also ferry terminal which will also get you across the river. The kitchenettes in the rooms were very adequate to self cater (we enjoyed having breakfast in before a big day sightseeing) and there is a Whole Foods close by. Also good eateries around. Having laundry facilities was an excellent plus as well. Staff were always helpful and friendly.

This is an aparthotel. We (3 persons) lived in a spacious one-bedroom apartment. With kitchen (but without washing machine). The finishing of the apartment was nice, though not luxurious. The hotel and the apartment are newly renovated. As in most aparthotels, there is no room cleaning by the staff. However, we could always change the towels. The location is good. Modern and nice area of New Jersey. Easy access to Manhatten by metro. A big supermarket is nearby.
