How to get to Hyatt House Jersey City from EWR, LGA and JFK
From Newark (EWR): take the AirTrain to Newark Liberty Airport Station, transfer to NJ Transit to Newark Penn Station, then take the PATH to Exchange Place — the hotel is a short walk from the PATH exit. From LaGuardia (LGA) or JFK: the quickest, simplest option is a taxi or rideshare directly to 1 Exchange Pl; public-transit options require at least one transfer into Manhattan and then the PATH to Exchange Place.

Arriving from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR)
By public transit: use the AirTrain from your terminal to Newark Liberty International Airport Station, then board an NJ Transit train to Newark Penn Station. From Newark Penn, take the PATH train (toward World Trade Center) and get off at Exchange Place; Hyatt House Jersey City is about a 2‑minute walk from the PATH station.
By car or rideshare: taxis and app-based rides (Uber/Lyft) run between EWR and Jersey City; tell the driver to go to 1 Exchange Pl, Jersey City, NJ 07302. There is self-parking available for a fee (ask the front desk about current options and validation).
- Transit route (typical): AirTrain → NJ Transit to Newark Penn → PATH to Exchange Place → 2‑minute walk
- If you have luggage or prefer fewer transfers, a taxi or rideshare is more direct
- No hotel airport shuttle is listed among property amenities
| Option | Notes |
|---|---|
| AirTrain + NJ Transit + PATH | Cheaper, uses public rail connections; involves at least two transfers |
| Taxi / Rideshare | More direct; subject to traffic and surge pricing |
| Private transfer or car service | Book in advance if you need guaranteed pickup or fixed price |
Arriving from LaGuardia Airport (LGA)
There is no single direct rail line from LaGuardia to Hyatt House Jersey City. Most travelers choose either a taxi/rideshare for a direct trip to 1 Exchange Pl or a combination of city buses and NYC subways to reach Manhattan and then the PATH to Exchange Place.
If you use public transit, expect at least one transfer: take an MTA or airport bus to a subway station, ride into Lower Manhattan (for example to World Trade Center or nearby stations), then transfer to the PATH and exit at Exchange Place.
- Simplest: taxi or rideshare direct to the hotel
- Public transit option: bus → subway into Lower Manhattan → PATH to Exchange Place
- Ask hotel front desk for local parking options or validation if driving
| Option | When to use it |
|---|---|
| Taxi / Rideshare | When you have luggage, late flight, or want door-to-door service |
| Bus + Subway + PATH | Cheaper but slower and requires transfers |
| Pre-booked car service | Useful for groups or fixed pricing |
Arriving from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK)
JFK does not offer a single-seat rail trip to Jersey City; travelers usually choose between a taxi/rideshare or a multi-leg public-transit route involving the AirTrain plus subway or LIRR into Manhattan, then the PATH to Exchange Place.
A typical rail approach is: AirTrain to Jamaica Station, then LIRR or NYC subway into Manhattan (Penn Station or other downtown stations), and finally use the PATH to reach Exchange Place in Jersey City. Expect multiple transfers and to carry luggage between platforms.
- Direct taxi/rideshare: easiest with luggage; allows drop-off at 1 Exchange Pl
- Public transit: AirTrain (JFK) → LIRR or subway into Manhattan → PATH to Exchange Place
- If you prefer fewer transfers, consider a car service from JFK
| Option | Pros / Cons |
|---|---|
| Taxi / Rideshare | Most direct; can be costly and affected by traffic |
| AirTrain + LIRR/subway + PATH | Less expensive; involves multiple transfers and luggage handling |
| Pre-booked shuttle or car service | Good for groups or fixed pricing; reserve in advance |
Getting from the PATH station to Hyatt House Jersey City
Exit the PATH at Exchange Place and follow street-level signs toward Hudson River waterfront; the hotel address is 1 Exchange Pl and is a very short walk from the PATH exit. PATH access makes the hotel convenient for trips to Lower Manhattan and other PATH stops.

Taxis and rideshare apps (Uber, Lyft) provide door-to-door service from any NYC-area airport; give the driver the hotel address: 1 Exchange Pl, Jersey City, NJ 07302. Expect ride time and cost to vary with traffic.

When to choose public transit vs. car from the airports
Choose public transit if you want a lower-cost trip and are comfortable making transfers with luggage. From EWR, public transit is straightforward using AirTrain + NJ Transit to Newark Penn Station and PATH to Exchange Place.
Choose a taxi, rideshare, or pre-booked car service if you prefer fewer transfers, have heavy luggage, or are traveling late at night. LGA and JFK usually require more connections on public transit to reach Exchange Place than EWR does.
- Public transit is generally cheapest but involves transfers (especially from LGA and JFK)
- Car options are more direct but can be slower during peak traffic and costlier
- Ask the hotel for guidance or current local transit advisories if you have timing questions
| Airport | Best default option |
|---|---|
| EWR | Public transit (AirTrain → NJ Transit → PATH) or taxi/rideshare |
| LGA | Taxi/rideshare for convenience; transit requires multiple transfers |
| JFK | Taxi/rideshare or AirTrain + LIRR/subway + PATH for lower cost |
