I travel a lot. But for some unexplained reason, I got an absolutely sound sleep here. The bar service is great. The bartender knew his local beer selection. Including my local favorite, Conclave. I think they may charge for parking, which I can't understand, being in the suburbs with plenty of hotel parking available. I have status with Marriott, and a local corporate account, so any parking fees were waived.

We really enjoyed our stay. The hotel was extremely clean, the room was spacious, and the indoor pool area was beautiful. There was some noise from elevator maintenance near our room, but Shannon was very helpful and responsive in dealing with the issue. Her assistance made a big difference, and we had a great stay overall.

We had our rehearsal dinner at the Bridgewater Marriott, and it was fantastic! The room block and shuttle to our wedding made things super easy, and the food and drinks were great. The event manager Stephanie was an absolute pleasure to work with made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Hotel is beautiful!

I had an excellent extended stay at the Bridgewater Marriott. From the moment I arrived, every single staff member was genuinely welcoming and professional. Their consistent warmth and attentiveness truly made a difference throughout my stay. The lounge breakfast each morning was especially enjoyable. The atmosphere was calm and comfortable, making it a pleasant way to start the day. It felt both relaxing and well-managed. One thing I greatly appreciated was the reliable Wi-Fi. During my nearly two-week stay, I didn’t experience a single connectivity issue — something I’ve unfortunately encountered at other Marriott properties. That reliability was extremely important for me and made my stay smooth and stress-free. The only drawback, particularly for long-term guests, is the absence of on-site washers and dryers. Having laundry facilities would make extended stays even more convenient. Overall, it was a very positive experience, and I would absolutely stay here again.

Very warm and welcoming staff! A special thanks to Jennie for kindly accommodating an early check-in, allowing me to unwind after a red-eye flight before heading to work. I also appreciate Dean for the warm welcome and great hospitality.

Getting here was an adventure and a half at 8 at night during Winter in NJ. If you trust GPS, trust your own instinct at the end because we found ourselves, definitely not in the oarking area. The negativity done, I want to shout out the staff. I got to the room and somehow the lock on our door was caught. Not blaming us we had their engineer (Only one for so late at night) come to our room and then let us in. a 20 minute ordeal only because I had our luggage and realized I had to go back to the lobby aith it. My favorite part of this story is as he is helping us, get into the room, he saw that our door battery was low (Red and Green light showing when the door latch opens) and spent an extra 5 minutes fixing it while my Wife and I got situated and we talked. David, you are great!

Nice Marriott but nothing special. I thought the room decor was a bit on the dark side. The hotel is still undergoing renovation and disappointed they did not have an operational M Lounge during this time. They could have easily walled off a small area to have a working space. The morning breakfast was good but limited and the chef making omelets and eggs was fast and did an excellent job. Disappointed they charge $12 for parking but the front desk was super nice and removed the charge when I questioned it. I find this a money grab, especially when 75 percent of the parking lot was empty, it's not gated and I saw no security. Overall was ok for a night's stay.

Great Hotel. Was staying there for part business and part leisure. Megan who checked us in was so sweet. I appreciate the wonderful room accommodations- was clean and well stocked with what we needed for the few nights we were there. I felt safe and comfortable solo at the hotel while my husband was at work during the daytime. Went to Maggios Italian restaurant across the street from the hotel for our anniversary dinner and it was phenomenal. Only thing I wish I would’ve utilized was the indoor pool. Just didn’t have time - but it was clean and looked like the area was well kept up. Newark Airport was only about 37 min from the hotel which wasn’t a bad drive for us. Overall 10/10 stay. Glad we picked this location to stay at being close to JnJ facility my husband was working at. Thanks again !
