Courtyard Marriott Edgewater/NYC Area

If you gazed across the Hudson from the Upper West Side, you’d see this gleaming new property that opened in summer 2016. Top amenities include a pool with views of the skyline, and rooms designed just as slick and cool as any downtown Manhattan boutique offering. But realistically, you’re here for NYC access, so jump on the shuttle that is a quick three-minute ride to the Weehawken Ferry to Midtown.
