Best Hotels near Minisink Park, Jefferson

First time at this property or any Sonesta brand hotel. Nice room and good location. Power outage during an excessive heat warning in NJ did not help when the power was out from 6:30pm ish until at least 3:30am. We are seniors on the third floor. No air conditioning, lights, TV, use of in room kitchen etc. Basically, a dark room with for walls. Staff provided no helpful information or estimated repair times, which EVERY utility company I have had, where I lived always did. No backup generators to power the rooms. No designated place to charge your phones. NOTHING! and, no adjustment on our bill during checkout or even an apology. Second night of our stay, power went out within 30 seconds of us getting off the elevator and walking a short distance to our room, nearly trapping us. Opened a case with the care team and have heard nothing in over two weeks. Very disappointed with Sonesta :(

It's a lovely interior and has decent accomodations and good service. They want 200 characters for each review but my first sentence says it all, I think. We looked forward to retreating to our room each night and enjoyed a liesurely breakfast in the morning.

Rooms and facilities management are excellent, but the overall facilities are outdated. Breakfast was simple but good and staff was friendly

This review is only my experience after 3 weeks in this place. Not a good one.manager prefers work crews in the area opposed to single business people. Many things went wrong in my room as well as on the property however he always had some excuse. The straw that made me leave was that every weekend there were free for alls and no supervision. People would be drunk and smoking pot and noone in the hotel told them to stop. I was told that I would have a quiet apt for anger stay. Every weekend I got no sleep. One night 2 girls checked in at midnight and kept me up all night which caused me to miss a meeting. The sales woman told me there were no one bedrooms available that weekend so people had to be put in the room under me. Not true. I checked on line I was able to book 3 one bedrooms available. I would never check in with children or even business men. This place is good for truckers only.also truckers were washing their trucks in the small parking lot on weekends. All this place want is too fill rooms. They don't care with whom.

Our first stay at this Holiday Inn Express in Mount Arlington NJ this week was quite a pleasant surprise, in so many ways. The hotel facility could not be more welcoming: clean, spacious rooms, ultra-comfortable bedding, and a coffee urn in the foyer. The morning breakfast buffet was also a treat—ample hot and cold foods served in a spacious room. (The pool was temporarily closed, thanks to Dr. Fauci’s guff.) Not least of all, the staff was superb. It turns out we visited on the one day when most staff were away for their annual families outing on the shore, so the managers were running things. When we mentioned this to manager Linda Dora, she graciously explained to us that this hotel’s staff feel “like a family,” and this shows to us guests. Not every organization does this. We thank you for this great experience.

I've been spoiled staying in brand new Marriott properties in the past year on LI and upstate NY, so I was immediately disappointed when we turned into this dark and creepy Marriott. Our room had a musty odor (all of our clothes in the laundry at home right now, definitely don't want to smell like that) but it was fairly clean. The bathroom fixtures, sinks and appliances are showing signs of wear (brown ring around the drain, toilet didn't flush well, microwave button panel cracked, fridge doesn't fit in the cabinet and wasn't quite cold enough but VERY cold in the far right corner, the sliding door on balcony didn't lock very well). The pool is tiny and hot tub inconsistently heated. The shower outside of the pool (which is a nice thing to have) was REALLY aged and when i turned on the light, a medium sized city centipede (the last time I saw this type of centipede was when I lived in Manhattan) scurried out of the shower. This was around 8 am so they say if you see these things in the day, it's quite an infestation. Thank god our room wasn't on the ground floor AND I saw it about an hour before we checked out. I have issues sleeping in hotel beds as it is. These beds weren't too bad. I just feel like the whole hotel needs a gut renovation. Sadly, I don't think there's a newer, better option in Parsippany, though! The rooms WERE quiet, and the staff pretty nice. There were lots of towels at the pool. There's a reverse osmosis water dispenser in the fitness room so you can refill your bottle.

EXCELLENT Customer Service! Accommodations are a rare find... what with the added feature of plenty of Balcony Rooms. 24/7 attention to detail, anything you need...they have it for you, including a dedicated Guest Office to log-in, and print your Boarding Pass for your Flight! You know how much time that'll save you at NWK AIRPORT??? If you find a better experience in the Rockaway, NJ market for the price... I'd love to know about it. Not expecting (m)any replies to that, as I know everything else you'll consider for accommodations will be TWICE-the-PRICE. Good luck folks, I shared my best advice. BERT ORLANDO, FL

Here's the list: WiFi didn't work in our room - during the entire stay. We mentioned it to the guy at the front desk and were told ”sometimes we have issues in the rooms. Try it again when you get upstairs.” No solution, no asking if we wanted a different room. We went out and when we returned, there was a different guy at the desk. Mentioned it to him, and he asked if we had tried using the directions that were TAPED TO THE FRONT DESK. No, we had tried using the directions given to us with the keys when we checked in. They were DIFFERENT. We were able to get on WiFi in the lobby but then it still didn't work in our room with either login. There was only 1 elevator working the entire time - which had been the case when we stayed there SEVEN MONTHS ago. The pool was ”being repaired” so it wasn't open. It looked fine, but unavailable to guests. The next morning the TV in our room wasn't working and it also wasn't working in the main room where breakfast is eaten. And finally, the shower head had water coming out of only 1 of 3 possible places. Thankfully we were both tall enough to reach the shower head to adjust it a bit. Not sure what you do if you're 5'2.

I mistakenly booked the wrong check out date for my race and slowly but surely the staff was able to keep me in my room for almost my entire stay. I had a great room overlooking the front parking spaces, nice bathroom and plenty of storage. I had breakfast daily and was able to borrow a Iphone charger and toothpaste when I forgot to pack them. Made use of the mini refrigerator for my beer. Love being across the street from Applebees and a 5 minute drive from an awesome Italian joint. I made sure I booked the correct dates for 2023.
