“Incredible Views, Cool Hotel, Nice Staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 28, 2012

Pros: Upgraded without even making a request on arrival to a larger room. Had reserved the King City skyline view, but this room was the larger Splendid room and had a very cool blue circular swivel chair at the corner window with incredible Manhattan skyline and river views.
Staff was very nice, friendly and accommodating.
Beautiful room...Cool hotel.

Cons: Parking charge is substantial and one should really be informed prior to (even though it's not too unexpected...)
Room service seemed to have trouble with basic order, didn't arrive hot (after explicitly requesting it come hot), then came piecemeal causing temp problem again. They comped it, which was fair...
Tub filled to ankle deep water immediately upon showering (yuck) and didn't reduce, even after an hour. Since it was last day and just prior to check out, I addressed it then, but although Allison at the front desk was very sweet and professional, it didn't change the annoyance of the situation, especially since I was there trying to get a break from my hurricane home environment...

Overall, lovely hotel, very nice restaurant (with fairly inexperienced bartender though, only very basic skills). Nice lounges and beautiful spot. Good location. I would return...

Room Tip: Definitely get NYC skyline view!

“Great hotel, well located”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 27, 2012

The W in Hoboken is a great hotel, I'd highly recommend staying here. The hotel itself is very cool and hip. Service is amazing, everyone was friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the area. Hoboken is a very fun city, much smaller than Manhattan but nice to go out for dinner after a day in Manhattan. You can easily walk to many restaurants from the W.
There are a couple of bars in the W, very nice. One has a particularly cool view of Manhattan. Parking is expensive ($35 day) however to be expected given the location. Easy trip into Manhattan as the path is a short walk away. The Path takes you into 33rd street station or alternatively you can go to the world trade center.

Good gym at the W, large enough with a fair number of cardio equipment and weights. Free coffee in the morning.

All in all good hotel.

“Made our Trip to NYC”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 22, 2012

The only negative we have to say about this Hotel is that we only got to stay here for One Night Only. It far exceeded our expectations in every way possible:
Valet staff: Very polite and friendly, they even gave a toy to each of our young boys which certainly made their day.
Room Service: Very friendly & efficient. Less than 5 minutes after requesting a crib we had one, with clean pressed bedding, the staff were also considerate to place it were we felt best.
Location: I have been to NYC several times in the past and I have never once had breath taking views like the one we had from our room, overlooking the Hudson River at the NYC Skyline. Both Day and Night it is amazing. The Hoboken Train station is also 2 minutes walk from the Hotel, which provides a service directly to Manhattan. If I realized just how convenient it was I would have stayed at the W Hotel for the following nights I had planned for NYC.
Beds: The Beds were extremely comfortable and immaculate.
Hoboken: We were pleasantly surprised by Hoboken as a whole. A very vibrant, trendy area. Family Friendly and numerous great places to eat.
We will certainly stay here again on our next visit and intend on staying in Hoboken for the whole time, commuting into Manhattan by train or ferry.

Thank You W Hotel for a wonderful experience.

Room Tip: Try and request one overlooking The Hudson River with a NYC Skyline view. Amazing View!

“My favorite hotel......PERIOD”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 19, 2012

I've stayed here no less than 7 times. Every time I travel from the west coast to the east coast, this is where I go. The hotel staff are always very accommodating, rooms are great and the general manager is amazing too. They always go the extra mile for you and fulfill any special requests you may have. Hoboken it's self is a great little city. Minutes from NYC, and the room views of the city........doesn't get better
