Top Sandy Hook Gateway National Recreation Area Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Grand Central New York

8/10 Good

"Overall great location"

Four Points By Sheraton New York Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Roof Top restaurant and location"

PUBLIC, an Ian Schrager hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, kind staff, great location. The room was small but roomier than other NYC hotels I've stayed in. It was very cozy and comfortable to sleep in. There was a good amount of storage space. The location was amazing--easy uber/lyft pick-ups/drop-offs, great walking location to so many places, and right by many subway lines. I was on the 5th floor and didn't hear traffic or loud sounds at night. I could hear doors closing/opening around my floor, but couldn't hear people/conversations. I absolutely plan on returning to this hotel, it's my new favorite one as a solo traveler/frequent visitor of NY."

Sela V Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall very cool and beautiful hotel. We were just in for a night to see a show at the Barclay Center. Room was clean and spacious but a little minimal so hard if you needed to stay longer to get settled in/place things. No iron or hairdryer in room-asked front desk and they advised they would send but never did. Also seemed like construction in one area with elevators being shared by workers which I thought odd alone with no sign indicating it. Overall decent stay-but staff probably could be more proactive with items outlined for nightly cost here."

Placemakr Wall Street

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was great. The location was perfect with easy access to the subway and ferry. The room was clean and spaces. Having a lot of room is rare for a NYC hotel. The only negative was the shower. Water gets everywhere."
