| The Hyatt Regency Jersey City is centrally
located by both public transportation and private vehicle. Newark
Airport (NJ) is the closest airport, only 15 minutes from the hotel. By car For extensive directions by car, follow this link. Parking Valet parking is available through the hotel ($31.05 overnight) or one can use the public garage located a two blocks west of the hotel, just off Christopher Columbus Drive ($15 overnight). By taxi or shuttle from Newark, Laguardi, or JFK Official taxi fare from Newark airport costs $35 + tip. See the airport authority's tips on taking municipal yellow taxis. There is an official at Newark airport at the head of the taxi stand who will tell you exactly how much it should cost. Taxis are prohibitively expensive from Laguardia and JFK and should be avoided unless you can negotiate a good price with the driver before leaving.

You can book through the hotel concierge by e-mail or by phone (1-201-469-4780, ask for Richard or Craig) . Be sure to mention the Romance Studies/Montclair State group. You can also book directly through the State Shuttle Company. By train from Newark Airport Newark Airport features AirTran service to Newark Penn Station.
