Recommended Hotel: Wyndham Garden
Why: Best Rates, Complimentary Airport Shuttle
The hotels nearest the Newark Airport are the Holiday Inn, Best Western Plus, and Wyndham Garden. Of these, the Wyndham Garden is the least expensive with an average nightly rate of $105/night. Cost is an essential distinction because in terms of amenities and opinions in online reviews, all three hotels are very similar. All three offer free WiFi, free parking, and a complimentary airport shuttle. All three also offer breakfast, but it’s only free at the Best Western Plus. Across hundreds of online reviews, all three of these hotels received complaints on cleanliness, noise, and location near nothing but the airport; however, some people thought each hotel was perfectly fine. The Wyndham Garden received praise as a cheap place to park and fly for a week stay and guests appreciate the 24 hour snack bar in the lobby. Overall, we recommend the Wyndham Garden to travelers staying a night or two before or after flying out of Newark Airport.
