djohannw Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Great deal for a place right across from Manhattan, IMHO. The Ferry to Manhattan departs right next from the hotel, and the Path Subway Exchange Place station is also next door. Both downtown and Uptown Manhattan are less than 30 minutes away.Hyatt Regency Jersey City On The Hudson Jersey City 2 Exchange Place Jersey City, New Jersey 07302 201-469-1234 Check-In Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2004 Check-In Time: After 03:00 PM Check-Out Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2004 Check-Out Time: 12:00 PM Your Offer Price: Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Indeed, the hotel gets excellent reviews (albeit for expensive parking).Just an FYI for anyone following along... i don't think the ferry runs on Saturday and Sundy from thsi location (you'll have to get to the ferry terminal near Newport). PATH runs 24/7, 4 minutes and direct to downtown, 20 minutes and a connection to mid-town.Link to Ferry: NY WaterwayLink to PATH: System Map(from the above link you can link to timetables and other info)Don't forget also the LightRail which (in addition to the PATH) can take you to lovely nearby Hoboken :) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
djohannw Posted January 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Thanks for the corrections and the links...when I go to downtown I planned on using the PATH train anyway.btw: My main destination this time is New Jersey (the factory outlets there), so I decided against a place in Manhattan as I have to have a car to get there, and 15$/day is certainly cheaper than what you pay in Manhattan. The "trick" to get this parking-rate (self-parking) is to get a sticker from the front-desk for the Hertz-garage.Greetings - Dirk Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Are you heading to the New Jersey Mall off of the NJ Turnpike (i think it's called NJ Gardens) or the Secaucus outlets?Also worth a trip is Woodbury Commons which is just over the NJ/Upstate NY border (maybe about 40 miles from Jersey City). If you decide to go there i'll give you the name of the best pizza place in NJ that you can stop at on your way there or on the way home. Also, if you'll mostly be staying on the NJ side of the Hudson River, Hoboken is worth a 'nite out on the town' as a cheap(er) alternative to dinner and nightlife in NYC.Let me know is you'd like add'l info on any of the above.... and i was correctly you as you didn't say anything that was wrong, i was only adding additional info! :) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
djohannw Posted January 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2004 I will do both the Jersey Gardens as well as the Outlets in Secaucus, plus the Woodbury Commons and the one in Riverhead (Long Island). So yes, I certainly would appreciate the adress of the Pizza-place you mentioned...;-)!As to Hoboken...I have never considered that for dining so far, but if you have suggestions, I gladly take those too.You got my eMail, don't you?Greetings - Dirk Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 8, 2004 Report Share Posted January 8, 2004 I sent you an email with some other info, but for anyone else that eventually wants/needs the pizza place this is the address:Kinchley's Tavern586 North Franklin Tpke Ramsey, NJ 07446 201.934.7777 Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
