They also forgot the coffee packs! The regular bed & bedding was fantastic. Pull out, horrible. But that's to be expected, I suppose. The neighborhood is safe, pretty, & has so much to offer, especially in terms of restaurants. Best part of Jersey City. Reasonably priced! We'll be back!"

Haiban Hotel Jersey City

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed at Haiban Inn for two nights and had a very positive experience. The accommodations are basic, clean, and comfortable; perfect if you're looking for a good value and a place to get a solid night's sleep. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and check-in was quick and hassle free. After my first night, I checked out to catch a flight, but when it was unexpectedly canceled, I returned to book another night. Without me even asking, they upgraded my room, which was a thoughtful gesture and much appreciated. The location is another big plus. It's in the heart of India Square, surrounded by fantastic Indian restaurants, bakeries, and a vibrant neighborhood full of culture. If you enjoy authentic food, you'll have plenty of excellent options just steps from the hotel. It's also within easy walking distance of the PATH station, making it incredibly convenient for getting into Manhattan or around the Jersey City area. I'd definitely stay here again"

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Jersey City

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Jersey City is between January and March, when hotel prices are generally lower. For a fulfilling experience that allows you to appreciate the city's notable landmarks, cultural sites, and scenic vistas, it is advisable to plan a stay of at least 3 to 4 days. During your visit, you can explore the impressive skyscrapers, historic monuments, and natural parks, as well as enjoy stunning sunrises and sunsets over the river, all while indulging in great value for money shopping experiences.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals for hotels in Jersey City, begin by exploring the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you're more likely to see discounted rates as your travel date approaches. To stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, helping you make informed choices. This way, you'll be among the first to know if rooms become available or if prices drop, making your last-minute getaway more feasible.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could assist you in finding a more economical option for your stay in a Jersey City hotel. For those in search of something distinctive, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price appears to be on the higher side, we may suggest alternative dates that could help you find a more favourable rate.
  4.
