Where visiting fans stay

Each area changes how you reach MetLife Stadium and how you get back.

Meadowlands / SecaucusThe shortest trip to the game

Sleep a short ride from the stadium, away from Manhattan prices and crowds.

To the stadium
Take a taxi or rideshare to the drop-off between Lots D and E, or drive only with a prepaid NFL parking permit.
After the game
Walk to the Rideshare Zone in Lot E, outside the Verizon Gate, or back to your permit lot.
The tradeoff
No hotel here is a walk to the stadium; highways sit between them. Evenings out in Manhattan mean a separate trip.
Midtown ManhattanA New York City weekend with the game on one day

Stay by Penn Station or the Port Authority, where the game-day train and bus start.

To the stadium
NJ Transit from Penn Station New York to Secaucus Junction, then change to the Meadowlands train; or the Coach USA 351 from the Port Authority Bus Terminal.
After the game
Take the Meadowlands train back to Secaucus Junction and change for Penn Station, or board the 351 next to Lot K within an hour of the final whistle.
The tradeoff
Rooms add nightly facility or urban fees, and nearby hotel parking starts around $50 a day. The stadium is a train or bus ride away in New Jersey.
Hoboken / Jersey CityA quieter base with its own bars and restaurants

Stay on the New Jersey side of the Hudson, with Manhattan views and neighborhood pubs.

To the stadium
Get to Hoboken Terminal, take an NJ Transit train that stops at Secaucus Junction, and change to the Meadowlands train.
After the game
Meadowlands train to Secaucus Junction, then a train toward Hoboken; check the last departures for your game.
The tradeoff
The hotel is in downtown Jersey City, not next to Hoboken Terminal. Getting to the stadium means reaching the terminal first, then two trains.
Newark (Penn Station / airport)Fly-in fans using Newark airport

Stay near Newark Penn Station and Newark airport, with Ironbound restaurants nearby.

To the stadium
From Newark Penn Station, take an NJ Transit train that stops at Secaucus Junction, then change to the Meadowlands train.
After the game
Meadowlands train to Secaucus Junction, then a train to Newark Penn Station.
The tradeoff
It’s a train trip with a change at Secaucus Junction, and Newark evenings are quieter than Manhattan’s.
