Parking - Jersey City - Hyatt Regency

Curious as to where to park other than the hotel itself? The hotel charges $32 which I find to be excessive considering the doubletree which is located a couple blocks away only charges $10.



Does anybody know of any safe areas to park that are within walking distance of the Hyatt Regency?





Parking - Jersey City - Hyatt Regency


No answer...but a related question:





We are not having any luck with reservations in Jersey City OR Secaucus (through Hotwire or PL). So, we may stay in a more distant suburb such as Edison / Woodbridge to obtain reasonable prices. Our intent is to visit Manhattan for the full day and evening (Sat. %26amp; Sun.). If we do not stay at a hotel near a PATH station, can we just park at the Exchange Place (or more distant lots) the entire day (until midnight), provided we use any lot that states they are open 24/7 on the PATH web site?





It appears that the Exchange Place parking lot is open 24/7, and that a 24 hour rate is $20. Could the original poster not part in that lot for several days as well? Not a great savings, but better than the Hyatt.

trytofly - Although I%26#39;m not familiar to the parking situation in Jersey City, I can suggest that you stay at the Woodbridge Hilton, which is walking distance to the Iselin, NJ train station. There you can take NJ Transit directly into Penn Station, NY (34th St), or you can change at Newark if you want the Path for downtown NYC locations. The Woodbridge Hilton has free parking and usually has great greats rates on Hilton website. (I booked $99 bounceback rate which includes bkfast for a weekend in Sept, for guests of an upcoming family event.)




For a nice hotel near NYC try Sheraton suites in weehawken. It%26#39;s afordable usually and has waterway access to nyc and I haven%26#39;t been there in a while but I think it has access to the new lightrail system to exchange place as well. DO CHECK IT OUT!




Hilton woodgate is pretta far from NYC. The ride into Manhattan will take almost an hour. What about Hilton at Newark Penn Station? Do you know how much they charge for parking? Is there any cheaper parking options around?




Parking at Hilton at Newark Penn Station is $20 according to their website.





For a group of people, it is in general not that more expensive to drive into the city and park especially on weekends. www.iconparking.com





For PATH, it is $1.50 one-way. Not sure about children.





For NJ Transit, from Newark Penn Station, it is $6 adult round-trip non rush hour, $3 child round-trip non rush hour.





Do your math.

We just returned. Some of the parking lots shown in the Exchange Place area maps are no longer in existance. In fact, our check-in host at the Hyatt directed us to a lot that supposedly was once associated with the hotel, but it was no longer a self-park lot at all (only monthly contracts). HOWEVER...we did eventually park in the public lot located directly across from the Hyatt for the weekend. They are closed Sat. %26amp; Sun. but we did not need the car at all during that time, so it worked out fine. It is $22 per day, and $7 if you enter after 4pm. While still expensive, it was a lot cheaper than valet parking at the Hyatt (about $62 for our stay vs. $98 plus valet tips).





The adjacent PATH station was a joy!!!




Actually self parking for Hyatt was in the parking deck of Harborside Plaza 4A. I work in one of the 3 office levels in that building. It is a couple blocks away from the Hyatt, so I would say, if you had at least 2 people to your party, you might want to drop off one with the luggage at the hotel, as you don%26#39;t want to be rolling your luggage that far and over the light rail tracks.





Parking deck is open on the weekends... well, at least it%26#39;s been open the weekends I%26#39;ve had to go into work ;) I think daily parking is like $22/day. Not sure, as I have a monthly, which is $240.





Thanks
