Since it opened in 2009, the W Hoboken has been a fixture on the Hudson Riverfront, offering guests easy access to downtown Manhattan via public transit and sweeping views of the iconic New York City skyline.

Now, the hotel has unveiled a complete transformation of its public spaces, guest rooms, and suites, embodying the new direction for the W Hotels brand.

“Set at the footsteps of New York City, the brand’s birthplace, W Hoboken captures both the pulse of the city and the relaxed rhythm of the waterfront … This transformation represents a bold step forward in our continued commitment to redefining luxury lifestyle hospitality,” said George Fleck, senior vice president and global brand leader, W Hotels.

W Hoboken Gets a New Look

Shortly after the W New York – Union Square unveiled a stunning renovation, the W Hoboken, across the Hudson River in New Jersey, has joined the ranks of new-look W properties.

This renovation touched every part of the hotel, including its public spaces, food and beverage outlets, guest rooms and suites, and beyond. The hotel’s new lobby, known as the Living Room, transitions between a relaxed daytime spot for coffee and snacks and a bustling social space in the evening.

The centerpiece of the space is the Living Room Bar, which joins Halifax and Sushi by Bou as the hotel’s newest spot to enjoy food and drinks. The outlet’s signature dish is likely to be the caviar service, which boasts house-made blinis, mini baked potatoes, and tater tots served with caviar. Of course, there’s a full bar where you can order a range of bespoke cocktails, beers, and wines.

Elsewhere, the hotel’s 223 guest rooms feature a totally new look, with modern spaces designed to reflect the wants and needs of modern travelers, plus design flourishes that pay homage to the hotel’s prominent location along the riverfront in Hoboken.

There are 20 Superior Suites available. Each features a separate bedroom, a powder room, and a living room with a balcony providing panoramic vistas of the Manhattan skyline.

Final Thoughts

The W Hoboken has been reborn with a fresh face. While it still emphasizes style, it has a more refined and modern look that will appeal to travelers seeking a high-end stay with easy access to the Big Apple — but without the high price tag of hotels in notoriously pricey Manhattan.
