The hotel has to get their heating system fixed because it?s was cold and I had to change my room at 1:30 am in the morning.

Top Tips
- Discover value by booking hotels in South River or East Brunswick, located 3-6 miles from downtown New Brunswick. These areas frequently offer complimentary parking, while downtown properties often charge $15-30 USD daily. Confirm parking policy in advance if arriving by car.
- Rates spike during Rutgers home football games and late May commencements in New Brunswick. To secure better pricing, book 3-6 weeks early if visiting on those dates, or select alternate weekends for lower rates.
- Prioritize hotels within 1 mile of New Brunswick or Metropark NJ Transit stations if train access to NYC is important. Trains reach Penn Station in 30-45 minutes; check current schedules for early or late departures.
- Expect a 35-60 minute rideshare to Newark Liberty Airport (EWR) from South River, typically costing $45-75 USD each way. Confirm current ride pricing and allow extra time during peak hours.
- Suburban hotels often require a $50-200 USD pre-authorization hold on your credit card at check-in. Call ahead to confirm or request a reduced hold amount, and consider using a credit, not debit, card to avoid holds on cash funds.
- Since South River does not have a direct NJ Transit rail stop, allow 10-20 extra minutes to access New Brunswick or Metropark stations by local bus or car. Plan routes in advance, and ask your hotel about shuttle options.
- Choose hotels along Route 18 or US-1 (East Brunswick or Edison) for easy access to national dining chains, grocery stores, and highways. This location is suited for travelers needing quick on or off access and nearby services.
- Request rooms with wired Ethernet or ensure Wi-Fi speeds of at least 100 Mbps if working remotely. Some budget-friendly motels in the area report variable bandwidth; confirm speed and device limits at booking.
- Before arriving, verify pool and fitness center schedules with your hotel, as some suburban properties close amenities for maintenance or off-season. If accessibility features are required, confirm details for facility access in advance.
