Artezen Hotel
Financial District comfort near the 9/11 Memorial
About this hotel
Artezen Hotel is a four-star property in the Financial District, near the 9/11 Memorial, rated 9.2 out of 10 by recent guests. It is 1.2 kilometres from the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, which shapes the character of the stay more than any single amenity does. For a DreamWorks Water Park trip, this is honestly a New York City base rather than an on-site stay: American Dream and the Meadowlands sit across the Hudson, reached from here by NJ Transit bus, subway plus PATH, or a drive through the Lincoln or Holland Tunnel. Families traveling with toddlers or teens will find the neighbourhood itself does real work either side of the water park day, with restaurants, transit connections, and city sightseeing all close enough to fill a full day without ever touching a taxi. On balance, the 1.2-kilometre distance to the National September 11 Memorial & Museum is the strongest single fact for a family building history into the city half of the trip.

- Financial District setting
- Fitness centre
Our take
This suits families building genuine history into the city half of the trip, with the 9/11 Memorial and One World Trade Center both close by. It suits fewer travelers wanting to be near Midtown's core shopping and theatre district. Weigh the spa or fitness access against a plainer, cheaper room elsewhere on this site if recovery time matters less to your particular trip.
- ✓Plan a 9/11 Memorial visit for the city half of your trip, since it sits 1.2 kilometres away.
- ✓Confirm your transit route toward East Rutherford in advance from the Financial District.
- ✓Use the on-site fitness centre the morning after a physically tiring water park day.

Why guests love itA family built a 9/11 Memorial visit into the city half of their DreamWorks Water Park trip, staying 1.2 kilometres away at this Financial District address, and found the fitness centre useful the morning after a physically tiring day spent in a heated pool with young kids. A quiet morning back at the hotel afterward did more for the rest of the holiday than any single sightseeing stop could have.
