What guests think

At Best Western Plus Newark Airport West, travelers highlight friendly staff and a handy airport shuttle, alongside spacious rooms, while noting ongoing renovations, dated areas, and access/parking challenges that make arriving and navigating the property confusing.

Cleanliness feedback is inconsistent, with reports of smoke or weed smells, mold, pests, and sticky or dusty surfaces contrasted by some clean, recently refreshed rooms. Food and beverage are convenient but mixed in quality and value, and breakfast is frequently an extra charge. Guest noise and mechanical issues like loud AC or nonworking whirlpools appear in some stays. Overall, expect a practical airport stopover with trade-offs in condition, quiet, and ease of access.

Facilities

The airport shuttle is convenient, though waits can be long at times. Parking is tight with a confusing one-way entry and occasional fees; the on-site restaurant/bar and ongoing renovations draw mixed reactions.

Front desk people were friendly. Restaurant workers were not. There was no breakfast. We were startled when someone tried to open our door. The mistake of front desk giving out duplicate keys. Shuttle ride was quick and convenient, which was why we chose this hotel. Shuttle driver was nice as well.

It’s under renovation. Parking is unclear when you first get there. Weren’t told prior we had to pay to keep our car there overnight? Weird that you’d charge for that when you’re already paying to be there.

There is very little parking on site. We had to park our car on the street. Although we thought we looked carefully, this site charges $20/day for parking if you are going on a trip. The shuttle picking us up took well over 30 minutes to arrive and the front desk was a little snippy when we called after 25 minutes. Won't be going back.

The hotel is undergoing renovations. Beds were pretty comfortable and room was neat.Park and fly also good value and shuttle convenient. Bathroom needed to be re-done and shower leaked all over floor despite shower curtain. The service at restaurant was slow and food was okay but not great. It was okay for one night.

This place is a dump. Our room was dirty and falling apart. Bathroom handles and knobs were loose. “Jetted tub” didn’t work. Ceiling was even dirty with splashes of who knows what all over. I asked the hotel staff for a new room and they said they all are in a similar condition. We needed one night before flying out at 6am and opted for this hotels proximity to Newark airport. This hotel appears to be caught in the middle of a profit and greed tug a war. They are behind the line of balance because of this greed. Money keeps rolling in because of the hotels location to the airport but they don’t want to spend that precious money to fix up the place. It’s too bad that a hotel company can’t anticipate this imbalance. Paid way too much for one night in this place.

I spent two nights in the last 4 Weeks at that terrible Place. I prepaid the nights and couldnt cancel. Its a disgrace, both times were horrible. I had Insects in the bathroom, the sheets were dirty, the floor was sticky, the sofabed was broken, the rooms both smelled badly its all run down - i was offered new rooms - but that did not change anything. New room had same or similar issues. The Wings in the Restaurant were disgusting - I did not even have a look at the breakfast, I just wanted to get out of there. The people at the frontdesk were not helpful at all! As I left, I realized after two hours, that we forgot my daughters favorite jaket in the hurry of leaving there. I went back and asked at reception, the man gave me a room key to check, if it was there. Just as I arrived at the room the cleaning lady finished the room - she had a big trashbag with her and I could see my daughters jacket in there. I could not belive, that she would just throw it away. I dont know whats wrong with that place, just stay away from it!

It was okay. Parking is very convenient and the check in process was okay (though I had to wait a while while the one couple ahead of me had a leisurely 15 minute chat with the person working there). The room is fine, though things didn't all work. Some of the light switches did nothing and the room was kind of dark. The whirlpool didn't really work the way it's supposed to. The room had a microwave and a fridge and it had what you need, but everything felt dated and not really maintained very well. It's convenient to the airport and assuming what you're looking for is a place to sleep right next to the airport, it's fine, but don't expect much more than that.

We clearly startled the front desk person who was behind a desk so tall I had to stand on my toes to sign the paper. The room had no charging outlets and the bathroom smelled like cigars. Every door slam regardless of the floor was heard, we heard the neighbor taking a shower around midnight, the ice machine got visited about 4-5 times during the night. The mattress was too soft for us (a ‘marshmallow’). The parking lot is very tight with one way in and the same way out. Not very impressed.

The room was very nice overall. A little dark I think some lights weren’t working which was fine with me personally. However the whirlpool tub didn’t seem to work which was one of the reasons I picked this particular room. Otherwise it was a nice stay would stay again if I’m flying out of Newark.

Was forced to find the most inexpensive hotel near the airport due to flight cancellation at EWR and this was the one. I think it’s a good value for the money because it’s clean and it’s spacious even though they’re under renovation. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating when it came to picking up the airport shuttle. I had a very decent dinner that was prepared very well and their restaurant saving me having to go find someplace to eat.

Thank you for going above and beyond. Young gentlemen of an Indian decent went above and beyond real late at night to ensure I was okay even though I did not have the best disposition. He also was by himself with a line. It wasn’t just me, he did the same thing with the lady before me. You can tell he cares. Rare breed. I appreciate you and keep being you.

The shuttle drivers were nice. However I asked for a wake call and never got one. When I checked in, the guy said I could get coffee and a muffin since I had to leave before breakfast started. The morning guy said there was no request for wakeup call and then made a big deal about try to get me a muffin. The king sized mattress was mushy and terrible. For an 8 hour stay paying $270 because my flight was canceled, I expected a better bed and service

Front desk staff was extremely disorganized, uncaring, and unprofessional. Desk would not respond to my complaints regarding noisy guests in the room next to me and forgot about my requested wakeup call. Best Western needs to be informed that management at this location is not maintaining BW standards.

The hotel is conveniently located near the Newark airport, adjacent to the United parking facility. The hotel itself was impressive, with friendly staff who greeted us warmly. Our room, a family suite, was spacious, comfortable, and quiet. I would definitely stay again and recommend it to others. Although the hotel has a restaurant, there are also fast food and other dining options available just minutes away.

Best value around. Location in the middle of long term parking lots for rail and maybe airport parking, near highway so hard to navigate to but excellent hotel with great hot breakfast and comfortable room. We’ll maintained and clean. Great for travelers and short Uber trip to Newark Penn station to catch train into New York for sight seeing.

Although the address in the hotel website and Expedia is 101 International Blvd., if you enter this address into GPS you will come to a Newark airport employee parking lot requiring key card access. To find the hotel (finding out required a call to the hotel) use 6 International Blvd.!

Hotel is ok. The shuttle only goes to the airport and the location is very inconvenient to everything else. Expect to use Uber or taxi to go anywhere else if you don't have your own car. BUT very helpful as a layover hotel for the airport as the shuttle picks up at the P4 AirTrain station and they drop you back off at your terminal
