Recommended Hotel: Cambria Inn and Suites
Why: Best Rates, Complimentary Area and Airport Shuttles, Indoor Pool
Both hotel options in White Plains are expensive, but very nice. The Cambria Inn and Suites and the Residence Inn are located in the heart of White Plains with plenty of things, including the train station, in walking distance. The Cambria offers a few more amenities than the Residence Inn, such as an indoor pool and complimentary area shuttle. However, breakfast is complimentary at the Residence Inn and parking is cheaper. Guests rave about the large suites and excellent service at the Cambria Inn and Suites. At the Residence Inn, guests like the breakfast buffet that has different options each day. Since the Cambria Inn and Suites has better rates and a complimentary airport shuttle, we recommend it over the Residence Inn for stays in White Plains.
