ROBERT TREAT HOTEL, Newark

Newark Liberty International Airport is 7 km from the hotel. The free airport shuttle operates 24/7. Newark Penn Station, a 3-block walk offering NJ Transit and PATH trains into New York City, is conveniently close - making the hotel practical for both event-goers and city commuters. Military Park and Whole Foods Market are within walking distance, and numerous restaurants and shops are in the surrounding blocks. The area is generally walkable for downtown Newark activities, though the immediate vicinity can feel less reassuring at night. For trips to NYC, the PATH train from Penn Station is quicker and more reliable than the shuttle-and-train combination.

Room types include double rooms, quadruple rooms, and family rooms. Double rooms have one full-sized bed; quadruple rooms offer two full-sized beds. All rooms come with a private bathroom (bath, hairdryer, free toiletries), a seating area, a safe deposit box, and ironing facilities. The overall room condition varies significantly: while some units have been renovated, others show clear wear with dated furniture, stained carpets, peeling wallpaper, and broken fixtures. Noise from hallways and neighbouring rooms is frequently noted, and rooms next to the elevator shaft can be particularly disruptive. The air conditioning is centrally controlled, so individual temperature adjustment is not always possible. No rooms have a balcony.

Medallion is open daily from 08:00 to 23:00, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Breakfast is available for purchase (not included in the room rate). The atmosphere is family-friendly. A snack bar is also on site. The bar provides a space for evening drinks. The restaurant's burger and chicken parm have been noted as delicious. Service speed can be slow during busy periods. Breakfast options are limited to what the restaurant offers and are not available as a complimentary buffet. Several casual dining spots (The Halal Guys, Blaze Pizza, Panda Chinese, Don Pepe Restaurant, Starbucks) are within a half-kilometre walk for alternative meal choices.

The fitness centre provides a basic exercise facility for guests wanting to maintain their routine during the stay. No other leisure or wellness amenities such as a swimming pool, spa, sauna, or hot tub are present. The hotel does not offer leisure-focused facilities beyond the gym, making it more suitable for travellers prioritising location and business over extensive recreation.

The free airport shuttle runs to Newark Liberty International Airport 24/7 and can also be requested for Newark Penn Station pick-up. However, the shuttle runs hourly and may fill quickly, so walking the short distance to Penn Station (3 blocks) is often more reliable. The 24-hour front desk staff can arrange taxis and assist with express check-in/out. Luggage storage is available for early arrivals or late departures. A business centre offers working space. The hotel also features an electric vehicle charging station and accessible parking. The lift can be slow, especially when only one of two elevators is operational. Laundry and dry cleaning services are provided. WiFi is free in all areas.
