HOTEL

There are plenty of ways to see New York City, but the best view isn't actually in the city. It’s right here, suspended over the water at Hyatt Regency on the Hudson at 2 Exchange Place Jersey City, NJ.

We would love to invite you to escape the rush, cross the river, and experience the perfect blend of urban energy and waterfront tranquility at 2 Exchange Place.

  • Unrivaled NYC Views: Our premier location extends 500 feet out over the Hudson River. Whether you are waking up in your room or sipping a cocktail, the Manhattan skyline, Statue of Liberty, and Freedom Tower are your backdrop.

  • The Vu Restaurant & Lounge: Enjoy locally sourced, chef-driven cuisine paired with floor-to-ceiling windows that look right across the water at the city lights.

  • Ultimate Connectivity: Need to get into Manhattan? The PATH train and NY Waterway Ferry are just steps away, putting the city less than 10 minutes from your door.
