Answer 1

Amtrak has a station at Newark Airport. I imagine hotels are pretty available in the area.

Answer 2

See there, you just knew there were nice people in Jersey. Quit hidin' folks

Answer 3

Downtown Newark. The Hilton is directly across the street from  Penn station.. NJtransit is the way to go from the airport. u can either bus or train ..  the train is faster. Taking a cab is also a way to go. 15 min ride from airport to downtown nwk. (depending on traffic.)  BTW make u specify NeWarK PENN STA.. there is also one in NYC.



hope this hepls . if u need anymore info email me [e-mail]

Answer 4

Port Authority Trans-Hudson Railroad ("PATH") runs from Newark Pennsylvania station into downtown Manhattan (33rd Street via SoHo) with direct connection to the subway system. The fare is cheaper than NJT (and a LOT cheaper than Amtrak). Train frequency is about every 9 minutes compared with the 30-minute frequency of NJT.

Answer 5

I recommend staying in New York City and taking the train down to the Newark Airport station on the day of your flight.  The trains are very frequent.  Unless you have a really early flight out of EWR, there's no reason to stay at an airport hotel.

If you are in Manhattan, it is very easy to take a cab or the subway to Penn Station and then take a New Jersey Transit train to the Newark Airport.
