Saddle Brook Marriott

Friendly and helpful staff. Clean rooms but the popcorn ceiling seems a bit outdated!

Very disappointing for a Marriott. The tub didn’t drain properly. The AC/​heat blows right in your face when you lay in bed. There were no outlets near the bed. You could hear everything that went on in the hallway (and it sounded like a fiesta out there). Basic internet cost $ 12.95/day. I would expect to have this sort of experience in a hotel that charges $ 75/​night, not $ 250/​night.

Stayed here for work. Most likely will not come back. Subpar for a Marriott. Room just feels dingy and has a 70’s feel. The industrial toilet in the bathroom is extremely odd. The walls are paper thin which makes it difficult to sleep. This Marriott is in need of a major upgrade. On the other hand the bar and lounge are nice. The staff is friendly and helpful.

I stayed here for one night after a wedding and was disappointed — mostly because there was a cockroach in the bathroom. Obviously, I wouldn’t come back.

Great beds. Thats about it, though. Maids stole my charger plug in. Good place to stay of you aren’t right by concierge but the food is expensive as hell and not worth it. They think they’re a big dog hotel but really they’re not.
Lots of money for an average stay. Staff is always a bit awkward too.

This is for the breakfast only. They took too long to serve the drinks that weren’t coffee and orange juice. Coffee was bland, no flavor. My eggs benedict was cold, poached eggs were over done, eggs shells was found in my food. Restaurant wasn’t even that busy.

If you stay here, mosey over to the bar and ask for Pablo! He is awesome! Amazing service and tells some great stories. You can tell a lot about a place by the people they hire:)

I haven’t stayed at this Marriott for about 20 years. Back then the air conditioning and ventilation system was fair at best ! Today it’s even worse! The last time I stay here my car was stolen from the parking lot in the middle of the night ! When the local police came they advised me that this parking lot leads the county in car thefts ! The front desk personel are very good… almost to over bearing… the lobby and rooms have been somewhat updated… the restrooms off the lobby are terrible… they need updating badly. The parking garage where my car was stolen has been torn down. The outdoor pool is gone. The nice restaurant on the top floor is closed. There is nothing besides a Dunkin Donuts within walking distance. They changed my room twice before I got a room that had a good air conditioning system.
The worst…: I needed a limousine to take me to a funeral in the area. The company that they called for me was anything but professional. The mans showed up in a flowered shirt with a tan old Lincoln Town Car. He didn’t open the car doors for us, The car was old and dirty. When I was leaving and needed a car to go to the airport… I called a service that I found on google… big difference… and a big difference on price… the driver told me that perhaps the desk clerk people or the hotel itself is getting a kickback… that is why the price was so high??? Further, I can’t remember the last time I was in a quiality hotel and had to pay to use a computer in the business center… not only did I have to pay, but using the computer for 15 minutes cost me over $ 20 !!!
I rate this hotel well below the normal Marriott.

It is no Millennium Hotel in the Financial District, NYC (my favorite hotel) but it will do when visiting family in New Jersey and wanting my own space. It is conveniently near route 4 and route 80 and Garden State Parkway. The rooms are clean and should ask or need anything I have found they accommodate with no problems. It comes with what I need the most: THE GYM!!! I work with what they have available and is just fine with me. The pool is doable but rather small good enough for small kids or young to older adults who just want to wade in the water. The restaurant downstairs has improved their menu a bit but the prices could use some improvement as well. My only real complaint is the noise level that can be heard through the walls. All night long as I was trying to sleep doors were slamming, kids were running and screaming, and usually this gets drowned out but the walls are so damn thin you could everything even footsteps of people walking down the darn hall.
Overall, the place is pretty pricey ($ 139.99/night) it gives you the bare minimum and I recommend it for a quick stay but if you are looking for luxury stay somewhere else

Very nice front desk staff. The bar is a good area. Food is decent.
As far as Marriotts go though this one is below average. On my very first night here I stepped on broken glass that was on the bathroom had to get some bandaids.
Walls are incredibly thin and there’s a lot of noise throughout the night so I recommend ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper. I have to stay here for work but if I was visiting the area I’d possibly consider other options.

Excellent front desk staff and food is quite good for a hotel. The property is somewhat dated, but it is convenient for me.

Nice enough hotel — it wasn’t anything fancy, but it got the job done. The industrial-​style toilets (like you would find in a public restroom) were a little off-​putting, but otherwise the room amenities were nice.
I used the gym twice during my three night stay. The cardio equipment (particularly the bikes) could use some updating, but everything worked, and there was a better range of weights on the free weight rack than in most hotel gyms.
The concierge lounge was average for Marriott — scrambled eggs and oatmeal in terms of hot options, good selection of pastries and bread, good selection of cut fruit and whole fruit to take along.
The traffic location is a bit confusing, but with a little bit of map consultation, you can avoid the GPS instructions that almost always take you on the parkway.
I will probably stay here again when business brings me back to the area.

Stayed here for one night and was a decent stay. I am always at Marrio
tts and this was a decent full service Marriott but nothing too special. Location was good off the parkway.
However, the walls are extremely thing and it was super loud. Luckily there wasn’t anyone having a party or anything so it was infrequent but being on the executive floor and an expensive price you expect better. It was like the walls were paper thin, you could hear every conversation and footstep and door slam. There are signs everywhere saying quiet time is from 10 PM-​8 AM so they must realize the problem. Granted it was Saturday night but its not like there was even a party or a lot of people around. God help you if there was with these walls. The place itself is somewhat outdated also, but at least have newer TVs and beds.
Overall, I am knocking it down for the price and the horrible noise factor.

This is my favorite spot near home but, too damn expensive!!! I wish I could go more.
The Cobb salad is out of this world and so is most of their food! But, have your account full! :(

The Saddle Brook is OK. The staff is extremely friendly, and the lobby /​bar area looked newly redesigned. The guest rooms were ok… but certainly nothing to write home about.

We traded in almost all of our marriott points to stay here? WTH? This place was far from the best hotel I’ve stayed at. It was old and decrepit with paint peeling off of the ceiling in the hotel room and noisy people outside our room all night and paper thin walls. Plus their bar closed at midnight on a Friday night. That’s fine but it would’ve been a nice place to meet up with our friends even just to sit as we took a late night flight into town. Now I know I’m rating this place low but I have to admit that the employees were extremely, extremely nice. They even sent up a nice bottle of wine when we checked in. If I were rating it on the staff, it’d be a 5 star. But unfortunately, I was so disappointed by the rooms and barely slept with all the commotion. I just wish we would’ve saved the points for a better locale.

Nice hotel that has been recently remodeled and is still in process of remodeling Pool and Gym. Gym is rather large. Concierge is nice and willing to try new suggestions. Location is central to everything but absolutely not walkable. Nice trail half mile north east that runs over to Westfield mall a rather large location.

Saddle Brook Marriot is an okay place. After JFK/​LGA/​EWR hotels were booked by hurricane victims for weeks on end, the closest hotel was this one. I had an early morning flight and couldn’t leave from home so I decided to stay here. Considering its 30 miles from JFK, the hotel makes it easy to get to the airport via the GW Bridge.
As far as the hotel itself, its okay. Yes, it does appear to be recently renovated. However, the rooms still very old and musty. The bathroom had yellowed tiles and rust in the tub, which was my major complaint.
Besides that, not a bad place to spend the night.

Super convenient and reasonably priced hotel. Super easy access to the parkway, and route 80.
Very clean inside. The rooms were nicely laid out and I loved the king size bed and awesome pillows.
I stayed here on a Saturday night after a wedding and the bar was packed with post wedding people all trying to get some more alcohol in their systems. Pretty fun vibe but I didn’t stay to investigate. I was hella tired.
Anyway, seems like a good option if you’re traveling and want a place close to nyc but not in nyc.

I travel to NJ on business often and generally stay at this Marriott. It’s a good location and a clean hotel. The remodel of the hotel helped it tremendously.
I’m not a fan of of the in house bar or restaurant but there are restaurants nearby that make up for it.
