Visiting & Lodging in Bayonne

Plan a Bayonne visit around Cape Liberty, the waterfront, parks, light rail, Broadway and the city's limited in-city lodging inventory.

Where to Stay

Bayonne's conventional hotel inventory is unusually small for a city with a major cruise terminal. Visitors should distinguish lodging physically in Bayonne from the much larger hotel markets in Jersey City, Newark and Elizabeth.

Cruise travelers: Cape Liberty Cruise Port is in Bayonne, but many cruise passengers stay in nearby Newark/Elizabeth or Jersey City because Bayonne itself has limited hotel inventory.
