Great stay near NYC
Pros:

Very good hotel. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was very good. Right by the PATH station. Very courteous and helpful staff.

Cons:

The hot water in the shower was warm-ish. We all thought it was too cool for comfort. The sink water got very hot though. Strange.

Ideal Weekend Getaway
Pros:

For a quick solo escape that still keeps you connected to the energy of the city, Element Harrison - Newark is a solid pick.

I spent a weekend here and loved the vibe right away—Harrison feels vibrant and up-and-coming, with a chic, urban energy and plenty of upscale dining options within walking distance. Plus, being just minutes from New York City makes it the perfect balance of convenience and calm.

The hotel itself delivered across the board. Everything was clean, modern, and comfortable, and the room had a beautiful layout with a great view that made it easy to unwind. It’s perfectly situated in the middle of everything, so stepping out always felt like you were part of the action.

Amenities were exactly what you’d expect—no surprises, just well-executed comfort. The complimentary breakfast buffet was a standout and a great way to start the day without extra hassle. Staff were consistently friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference, especially on a solo trip.

Overall, it’s absolutely worth the stay—whether you’re looking for a quick reset or a convenient home base near NYC without the chaos.

Great option to avoid driving in NYC
Pros:

Can't beat the location when you're going into the city but don't want to drive there - practically attached to the PATH station, and they share a garage. Reasonable parking price for the area, breakfast included.

Cons:

Breakfast area a little worn and made-to-order station was set up but not staffed for some reason. (We were there in the last hour of breakfast, but not at the last minute either.)

Also, price for the stay was a little high but there's not much you can do in the area, and the convenience to the train is really helpful.

Overcharged by hotel - beware!
Pros:

One of my most disappointing experiences with a Marriott hotel. The hotel charged me 2 days for a 2 hour stay and refuses to correct the error.

I was getting in after a red eye and stated in my reservation that I would be arriving the next morning. When I checked in, the receptionist was initially confused but said she'd made the change and even offered me a late checkout. I checked in at 7am and checked out by 9am (earlier than expected).

Imagine my surprise when I was charged 2 full days for a 2 hour stay. The manager said the system had flagged me as a no-show (despite my written notification), and then charged for the next day, even though I'd checked out well before the 3p check-in time.

I've never been overcharged by a Marriott and then seen them refuse to correct the issue. Beware!
