Hotels near The Old Glory Park, West New York

We were looking for a place to stay while exploring the parks and urban trails along the Hudson. Great places to take in views of NYC. This location was several miles away but was very reasonably priced. It is still a new hotel and was modern and clean. The staff were all friendly. The man that checked us in offered us a choice of floors and switched us to a room with a view. The lady on duty in the morning was very busy attending to breakfast and people checking out, but was very friendly. The parking lot was fairly full, but the hotel was quiet. The area felt safe. Breakfast was limited to bagels, cereal, yogurt, and fruit. My kids accidentally signed up for the faster internet and we were charged $6.95. I did not take the time to ask about a credit, but something to be careful of. Driving in this area was easy enough but the streets are narrow and the area has lots of steep hills. The hotel parking lot was a bit tricky to access. We would definitely stay here again.

The West Side YMCA is definitely a no frills place to stay, but the location is excellent. You're right next to Central Park and Columbus Circle. Times Square is an easy walk south. We stayed in 2 different rooms. The first had a bunk bed and was quite small, but the bed was comfy and the room was clean. It also had a small TV and fridge. We had a semi-private bathroom, which was down the hall. This meant we had to scan our key on one of the bathroom doors to get in, but once inside we had privacy while we got cleaned up. The bathrooms were kept clean and tidy. We were able to upgrade the second half of our stay to a room with a larger bed and an in room bathroom. Again, this hotel is no frills. It can be rough around the edges, but it's clean and comfortable at the end of a long day of sightseeing. We did not have time to take advantage of the gym, the pool, the sauna, and stuff like that, but they looked nice. I'd recommend the West Side YMCA. If you're visiting NYC, you should be out doing stuff, not sitting around the room. It was everything we needed it to be.

This hotel is great! I loved my stay and completely satisfied with it. I got a first floor room which is super close to the everything. The king suite is very spacious and comfy. The sofa bed is great as well. I like how the management is very careful and helpful in addressing my requests. The best part is it is so close to the bus stop for a bus to NY. Simply walk 2 min, buy ticket at the machine, and wait for bus 320, will get you to the Port Authority bus station right by Time Square. Super convenient and worth every penny!

Excellent service. Clean facilities. Great location. On service, the staff is courteous and responsive (from the front desk, to the maintenance people). Some go above and beyond, like Nanette, the lady in charge of breakfast. She made us feel at home. I had planned to spend one week at this hotel and then switch to other hotels to experience other places in the NY area. However, we were treated so well by Nanette that I extended the stay and spend the 3 weeks here. Housekeeping was very accomodating. I had business calls most of the day and did not want noise. I needed the cleaning, which they do only every other day, between calls, other days I just wanted towels and other supplies, which they promptly provided. Sometimes, I ordered DoorDash. Front desk kindly called my room if I had missed the deliveryp text. I did not want lingering food odor in the room. I just place the bag with containers outside and they picked it up regularly. They have a system. The facilities: restaurant, bar, sitting areas, elevators, etc. were always clean. I felt very comfortable in all of these areas. The room was large and clean. I had a large desk to work on. My view was towards the hill, which was very nice. The bar/restaurant at night offers good quality food at a good price. On location, there are several restaurants in the area within walking distance. There is a CVS and a HomeGoods one block away. The hotel is a short walk from the river. If you stay here, take a morning and/or evening walk and enjoy the NY skyline. You can see the view in my pictures. I felt safe walking around the hotel. One word of caution: if hotel noise bothers you, don't stay here. The floors are thiner than I am used to. We could hear every time the child upstairs jumpped off the bed or if they dropped something. And the guests below us could hear us walking (they called!) and we are small ladies. For me and my daughter, it was fine. We would laugh it off every time we heard noises. I will stay here again. Thank you staff of the Courtyard Marriott. Signed: the lady from 311.

The hotel was nice. The front desk was very helpful. My only problem with Trip.com they don’t pay the hotel. This is the second time I used the website and it was an issue where the hotel charged my credit card for the night I stayed when I had already paid thru Trip.com. So I’m in the process of trying to get a refund. I will not be using Trip.com for future trips. I will book directly thru the hotel site. One more thing the hotel site was cheaper than Trip.com

My wife and I took our family here. We will never make that mistake again. We were in suite 614. One Ac unit did not work. The other had a smell like something was dying in it. The pullout couch had no sheets. The bathroom was disgusting with hair in the tub. We had trouble getting into the room because the room locks were not working. The fitness center equipment kept turning off because they were all plugged into one outlet. The door to the fitness center would not open unless you got a front desk person to open it up. The card key and lock did not work on those doors. The pool had hair and urine on the tiles. The fitness center and pool did not open up till 2 on the weekends. The food for breakfast was ok. We did not have enough towels in our room. My wife asked housekeeping for more and was told no. There is no more towels. We would have to wait till later. The front desk staff during the day could care less if you had a problem. When checking out my wife shared how bad the experience was and the only response the front desk lady had was… have a good day.

We stayed here after visiting friends near by. Location is great and they have parking. A very bare minimum of a hotel. The first room they tried to give us reeked of smoke, the whole entire hallway did actually. It was suffocating. We spoke to the front desk and were moved to another room. It smelled much better, but we knew this is the best we were going to get. The bathroom wasn’t in the best condition. Pictures of the moldy ceiling attached. No option to buy any movies. The whole place needs an update. If given the choice, I wouldn’t stay here again.

AMAZING value for money. The staff is super friendly and the guests are very international and social. The hostel offered lots of free activities every day. I was amazed by their sightseeing tours, yoga or karaoke. Amazing company and offering!

Comfortable beds and pool was open (rare these days!) but staff need to pay closer attention to rooms and amenities - broken gym equipment, ripped towels, previous guests’ clothes overlooked and left in room, etc. Several different instances of negligence, which negatively impacted our stay.

After a long flight from the UK we arrived to check in and were greeted by very friendly reception staff who asked us all about our trip, where we were travelling to etc, so we explained we were at the start of a roadtrip. We asked if our room rate included breakfast, it didn't, but the very helpful Nate said he wanted our trip to get off to a good start and gave us a voucher for breakfast. Was a lovely gesture, very welcome and the next morning it set us up for the day - thanks Nate! The hotel itself was fine, the room perfectly adequate. Our only issue was the family across the corridor. I think there had been a problem with their room so they were in the hallway making such an amount of noise which carried on inside the room. I believe several complaints were made as it was as though there was a party going on. Security came up a couple of times and it eventually quietened down. Just not what we needed at 11pm onwards after a long flight, nor I'm sure did anyone else.
