The hype
Travelers rave about the 'spotless' renovated rooms and the helpful staff, but almost everyone mentions the high cost of parking and breakfast.
W Hoboken
$250-450/natt
Bestill dette hvis You want jaw-dropping Manhattan skyline views and a trendy vibe without the claustrophobia (or price tag) of staying in actual Manhattan.
Hvorfor folk elsker det
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with direct views of the Empire State Building and Hudson River
- Proximity to the PATH train (10 mins to NYC) and NY Waterway ferry
- The 'Living Room' bar and Halifax restaurant are genuine local hotspots, not just hotel traps
Hurtig oversikt: It’s the 'unpopular cousin' of the NYC W hotels that actually tries harder, but the wedding bass on weekends can be a dealbreaker for light sleepers.
Gjennomgått av @amandasparkles: I stayed at the newly transformed W Hoboken and it was a total vibe. The city views from my bed were unreal, but finding the secret sushi speakeasy downstairs was the highlight. It felt like the coolest party in town without ever leaving the hotel.

5 ting du bør vite før du drar

💡The 'Spectacular' rooms are basically the same as 'Wonderful' rooms, just on higher floors.
💡There is no bathtub in most standard 'Cozy' rooms—showers only.
💡The hotel scent is strong—if you're sensitive to perfume, it might be overwhelming in the lobby.
💡You can hear the PATH train rumble faintly from some lower-floor rooms, but it's white noise compared to the weddings.
