Plan this game weekend Hotels near MetLife Stadium

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.
