Where to Stay When Visiting PSEG (Newark)
PSEG's headquarters is in Newark, New Jersey. Stay near the campus, not across the river. There's rarely a reason to pay Manhattan prices and reverse-commute.
Public Service Enterprise Group (PSEG) is a diversified energy company and New Jersey's largest utility, headquartered at 80 Park Plaza, Newark, NJ 07102. That's the Newark / Jersey City core — New Jersey's urban gateway across the Hudson from Manhattan, where Prudential and PSEG anchor downtown Newark and the Jersey City waterfront holds its own cluster of towers.
“PSEG runs New Jersey's grid from Park Plaza downtown. Book a Newark hotel a few blocks away and skip the Manhattan reverse-commute.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
Which airport — and how far?
Newark Liberty (EWR) is right here — about 10 minutes from downtown Newark and 15 from Jersey City — one of the easiest airport runs anywhere, and a quick train ride to Manhattan if the trip extends. Skip JFK and LaGuardia; EWR is the airport.
Where should you stay near PSEG?
Stay in downtown Newark or on the Jersey City waterfront near PSEG — both are walkable, transit-rich, and minutes from Newark airport. There's no reason to pay Manhattan rates and reverse-commute under the river for a New Jersey meeting.
