Recommended Hotel: Radisson
Why: Zagat-Rated Restaurant, Best Rates
The two hotels near the New Rochelle train station are the Residence Inn and Radisson. Both hotels have comparable rates and amenities, most people would be okay with either one. But the Radisson has a slight edge due to slightly lower rates most days and the on-site restaurant. The Zagat calls the restaurant, NoMa Social, one of the best seafood restaurants in the United States. On the whole, guests tend to like the Radisson, but there are some complaints that the music from the bar area can be heard in guest rooms late into the night on weekends. If you request a room on a higher floor, this should solve the issue. The Residence Inn is a fine choice as well, guests like the friendly staff and spacious rooms. But we recommend you consider the Radisson first if you’re traveling for a special occasion because of the nice bar and restaurant on-site.
