seningen Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Will be flying into JFK -- don't land until 10PM would it be wiser to get a hotel near JFK, thentransfer to Jersey City next day?what is the best way to get from JFK to Jersey City?BTW, good to note that the rack rate was $309 and HW had what is likely the Hyatt at $117 for 4/22.m Link to comment
megev Posted April 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Actually, this is the history for HW for what is likely the Hyatt: 4/15- $1344/16- $1174/17- $1164/19- back up to $117Given the significant drop in price from Monday to Tuesday, I figured they must have plenty of availability, so I went for it. As far as your question about where it's better to stay the night you arrive, I can't tell you since I'n not local to the area. I know the Hyatt is right next to the PATH station, but I'm not sure how much of a hassel it might be to get to downtown Manhattan and take the PATH out to Jersey at 11 PM with all your luggage and what-not. But if you're on a tight budget.... might want to consider trying it. Link to comment
