What guests think

At Robert Treat Hotel, reviews highlight a convenient downtown Newark location near Prudential Center and Penn Station, generally friendly staff, and reasonable rates, but also note inconsistent upkeep and frequent smoke odors that detract from some stays.

Many guests report elevator outages and long waits, limited paid parking, and an airport or station shuttle that feels inconsistent. Rooms are basic and sometimes noisy, with sparse in-room amenities and centrally controlled heating or air conditioning that can make cooling difficult. Housekeeping quality varies, with some spotless stays and others noting hairs or stains. Expect a simple, well located base rather than a polished full-service experience.

Location was excellent. Parking, with a surprise fee, was poor. The attendants mostly just looked at you. Checking out, the only valet attendant didn't even leave his booth. The restaurant had plenty of open seats yet couldn't make a reservation online. The review copy of the bill had a "suggested tip" (party of 2) and the final copy included it, along with an "additional tip" line. If I hadn't been paying attention I would have tipped twice. That really irritated me. Finally the carpets in the long hallway entering the hotel were very old and shabby looking.

The hotel is nice and the rooms have been updated, but a lot of changes since the last time we stayed. Our room got extremely hot and the only ventilation was a window that opened slightly. This was not ideal for us as we were on the ninth floor and had a small child with us. We reached out to the front desk and was told there was nothing to be done as the ac is a central system and hadn't been changed over yet from heat to ac. We found that odd as there was ac in the hallways and lobby. Thankfully it cooled off some outside and our last 2 days were comfortable. The hotel seems to maybe be a warm shelter. This is great for the area and we applaud that if so, but we smelled a lot of weed smoke in the hallways, had someone spit out a window onto the sidewalk beside us and it was loud quite often. There is room service if you can get the restaurant that now operates in the hotel to answer their phone, but it is extremely expensive. The hotel is suppose to have shuttle service to and from Penn Station, however we walked more to and from as we couldn't get the shuttle to pick us. This was difficult as well as we had 2 children. We chose to come back to this hotel because they offered this service, but again, we had to walk more then ride, even in the pouring rain one morning. I hate to leave a bad review because we have really liked this hotel in the past, but I'm not sure we will stay here on future trips.

Check-in was seamless. The front desk agent was very nice and helpful. A few amenities were missing from my room (hangers, wash cloths, and the bag for the ice bucket, but the staff promptly provided them. There's a laundry room for guests to use on the 3rd floor. It's hotter than a sauna, but I'm grateful for it! The hotel is beautiful and safe, with elevator access key cards. The Medallion restaurant, which is on-site, was great. Try the steak sandwich or the Grilled Sea Bass. A complimentary shuttle picks up from Newark Penn Station, and it takes guests around the corner to the Tryp hotel, where there's a breakfast buffet. I love it here!

I had a very pleasant stay here. The staff at the reception were extremely kind and welcoming, which made a real difference. The room was clean and comfortable, and the overall service was excellent. One thing to keep in mind is that breakfast is served in a different building about a 3-minute walk away, but it wasn’t a big issue. What I really appreciated was the free transportation to and from the airport, running every hour — that made things so much easier during my stay. I would definitely stay here again.

The biggest issue was the amount of people smoking pot. Every floor smelled of it and they could do nothing about it. The staff were friendly and although we never had our room cleaned (by choice) it was clean when we arrived and it looks like the staff kept the rooms clean. Noise levels were through the room and the parking cost was outrageous.

The good thing about the hotel was that it was close to where our show was. I probably wouldn't stay there again because there were just lots of little things wrong with the room, including it didn't feel especially clean, frayed shades, stains on some of the walls. One of the front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, the other was not.

Night 1 was ok. I came in from work on day 2 and realized my room was cleaned, but no towels! They took my used ones and didn't give me new ones. So what, i only get to use 1 towel and have to play hide and seek to get another one? Whatever the reason, I had to wait 90 minutes for a towel. When room service did come, they only brought a wash cloth. I anak had a giant roach in my shower. I also asked for bug spray. They sent up air freshener instead. REALLY!!!???!!! So after 90 minutes of my limited sleep time was spent chasing down a towel that i ended up having to get myself. Even after that, the staff had the audacity to blame me for being upset! That's some trifling stuff in my opinion. Never stay here unless you like roaches in your bed!

The amount of people who smoke in their bedrooms appears to be high based upon the general odor in the corridors and some of the bedrooms. I stayed at the hotel Thursday night. I arrived late and was anxious to get sleep. The bedroom assigned me was reeking of smoke upon entry so I opened the windows while I get ready for bed. Before turning off the lights I closed the windows and went to sleep. Upon waking the next morning, there was an acrid odor in the room and my throat was sore. My clothes smelled as if I smoke 40 Marlboro daily. The hotel should have a very firm no smoking policy so guests do not have to experience what I encountered this week.

Not the worst hotel I’ve stayed in, but far from the best. The refrigerator in our room did not work and the ac never got below 71 degrees. We did not complain about it because it seemed like just finding us a room at check-in was a struggle. The place smells like cigarettes and weed a lot of the time too. Otherwise, the room was clean enough for us, there were plenty of outlets, the tv worked, and it was in a convenient, walkable location. Took the bus to get there from the airport and took their shuttle back- both easy options.

Inside is nice. Nothing overly special about the room. It shows some age, but it was clean. Asked for a rollaway bed, but never got it. The neighborhood isn’t the greatest either. Not terrible, but a little sketchy after dark. A short walk to the Prudential Center, but again, walking back after dark… A little pricey, but expected for downtown. Parking is $20 and pretty limited. All-in-all it served its purpose, and we were mostly satisfied.

Was not told that breakfast is not served at the hotel, but rather their sister hotel around the block; was told about the food shop or the coffee bar either. Overall, a nice place to stay with a good location, just make sure to ask about any questions because you won’t be told anything.
