    Hoboken Terminal is a unique, charming, yet also chaotic hub for NYC commuters. The architecture is amazing, though you'll often spot some homeless folks among the crowd. Despite this, the terminal offers great options to get to NYC, whether you choose the bus, NJ Transit, or the PATH train. They have helpful customer service reps throughout the terminal in case you have any questions. They also make it very simple to travel to MetLife Stadium for events. It def has a combination of history and hustle, making every trip an adventure. Not to mention it's also a few steps away from some great skyline views of NYC!

    Nice  terminal historic building.

    Clean and safe Hoboken Terminal. Easy to access and maneuver. Efficiently run. Mostly on time and efficient.

    This is my hub to get into New York City. Aside from the gorgeous architecture and history of the Lackawanna Station, it's right on the Hoboken pier park. Stunning views of New York across the Hudson when it's clear. Inside the station there's a Dunkin' Donuts, and other shops. The flower stall is one of my favorite photo ops. It's almost always there to greet me with beautiful blossoms and the lovely sent of lilies. Unless it's closed, and the station becomes a bit gloomy. The station is usually bustling with lots of people. It's a bit scary & lonely after 10pm, but I haven't had any issues yet. Here's a positive story. I have an old phone that I use for audiobooks. I had accidentally left it somewhere inside. I used find my phone and was able to locate it at the station, but couldn't keep searching because my train was leaving. The station attendant actually went into the phone and found my emergency contact. Called it to let me know my phone was there. Had I not used FMF to come back to the station for it, their reaching out certainly would've informed me that my phone was safe. That's effort you don't see often. The cashiers are helpful and friendly. Ferry attendant not so much. Bathrooms are usually, mostly clean. Free so that's a good thing to keep in your mental travel file. You can get all sorts of transportation brochures for the trains and buses here. You can also catch the Path or a ferry to Manhattan. So much good stuff going on, and very convenient.

    A grand station that harkens back to the old fashioned days when rail was king and people who traveled on it were elegant. The Hoboken Terminal is the main station for nine New Jersey Transit commuter lines as well as one Metro-North Railroad line, the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail and the PATH subway. There's even a short walk to the NY Waterway terminal. This is the ninth-busiest railroad station in North America! I arrived from Hillsdale NJ on the Pascack Valley Line and wasted no time connecting to the PATH station. The signage was great and I had no trouble finding my way. Similar for the return, I arrived on PATH but had about 90 minutes until the next train. There are comfortable seating, restrooms, a few places to get something to eat in the terminal and some restaurants outside nearby. You should definitely take a walk around this lovely station if you have time. [Review 18330 overall - 162 in New Jersey - 1852 of 2022.]

    Hoboken Terminal just has such a historical look to it and it is. Connecting to other NJ Transit railways, it also serves people on foot and whom look to take the ferry across the Hudson. Considering how much it's used it's very well kept which may be a little easier to do then for NJ and NY's Penn station given the sheer amount of people that commute through them. The size and architecture are to be appreciated it. It has a Beaux Arts style, French look that sticks out. High ceilings and everything is functional. Apparently there was a "Golden age of rail travel", likely before rise then use and ownership of automobiles. During this time huge numbers of people came through here. It is great that such a grand looking place serves a major function while at the same time upholding it's historical value and is able to be kept up all at the same time. Take that in next time you come through Hoboken Terminal, even if you do it every day.

    My partner and I stopped at this historic place prior to the event. Opened in 1907, this majestic Hoboken Terminal is the last survivor of the great Hudson River waterfront stations in NJ still serving in its original function. A beautiful piece of classic architecture still serves it's purpose as a transit hub for bus, train, ferry and PATH service. Commuters from the surrounding areas use it daily to travel to NYC as well as places beyond. The terminal is maintained well and makes you take pause as new architecture just does not evoke that of our historical places. The main waiting room has its Tiffany stained-glass skylight and beautiful bronze chandeliers. If you are by the waterfront, it would be a great place just to see history.

    Hoboken Terminal is a large and beautiful building. It may suck for those not familiar with the bus and train lines. The place is so large and it takes some walking. It does have signs pointing you in the right direction. They have services for busses, rails, and subways. It's a beautiful old building. Some dining options are inside. They also have a liquor store. A lot of restaurants are nearby. You can walk along the water and see the nice parks. If you want to get to New York, get on the PATH train to the World Trade Center. It's a simple line that goes back and forth. To get to other places in New Jersey, you can get on a bus or the light rail. It's usually busy but it can get really crowded at peak hours. It usually has the PATH train every few minutes it seems. This is one of the cheapest ways into New York.

    The gorgeous historic Hoboken Terminal has a long and illustrious history - not to mention its fabulous location on the Hudson River waterfront. Great for a visit, a wander or a commute. Easy accessibility to NYC via the Ferry and Path Trains or to suburban New Jersey via NJ Transit trains that originate / end here.

    I was born in Hoboken in the 70's. I grew up here and in West New York and in the city. I have an affinity for the area. I was pleasantly surprised to see how much my wife would fall in love with Hoboken, now that her office is located here, and the entire area has been almost completely upscaled since I was a kid. I have a very specific set of memories of Lackawanna R.R. and the station, which currently houses the New Jersey Transit Rail lines, The Ferry into NYC, PATH, and just outside--the Light Rail train system. There are numerous points to sit and view the city and there is food available. However---this station is in dire need of an upgrade and renovation. The outside waiting area is virtually non-existent. Especially, if you have very late evening/early morning trains. Such as a PATH train returning from NYC. You pretty much are stuck waiting outside until 4-5AM. I can understand that this is a function of preventing vagrancy from squatting in the station. But a few benches and some night security wouldn't hurt. Overall, it is exceptionally convenient to have everything available here at this station. But my other gripes are about the scheduling. The train lines are not consistent in their overall cycles. People getting out of work in Hoboken, who are often off at 5 PM won't have options to leave until usually 5:30-6 PM. This issue is not necessarily at fault of the station itself but it is worthy to note that the schedules are weird. While there is an old world charm about the train station waiting area and some of the interior, it like the exterior, is in heavy need of a face lift. It doesn't need to be modernized like the Staten Island Ferry Station in the city. But it should be preserved and have proper caretakers mind the station daily.

    At first I was afraid, I was petrified... Yes, I was actually afraid to go to the terminal at night. I'm so innocent, so frail, so...so what! I was visiting Hoboken/NY for work and I had to use the PATH to get into the city. I had to purchase tickets for about 20 people, so I had some questions about using the ticketing machine. I picked up the blue phone and spoke with a very nice operator who stated she'd send someone over to help me. A couple minutes later, a handsome stranger came walking toward me to help me out. He was very friendly and helped me get tickets I needed for 20 round trip fares NJ/NY and back. If I ever make it back out to NJ, I'll definitely stay in Hoboken and just PATH it into NYC! Note to visitors - Don't be afraid! Everyone was really friendly and helpful =)

    Live music in the terminal

    One of the best train stations! I take two trains to work every single day and by far this is the nearest and the best station. Sometimes when you are as regular as I am or as lucky as I am, you can hear wonderful music by live bands.

    Beautiful little transportation hub in Hoboken with amazing architecture and ticket booths that look like they're out of an old back in the day movie ... A charming picturesque station connecting trains, buses, ferries, The Path ... Also some eating options. Only negative -- I am not here often but the recent visit there were several people loitering, a couple sleeping on the benches and a couple on the floors which I initially thought little of - until one seemingly angry guy lying on the floor was yelling obscenities about sucking (something)... Likely harmless, but it was mid day and having a relatively small seating area -- If I had my son with me I would have been uneasy hoping for a security person to thwart his outbursts ... Put a lollipop in his foul mouth. Overall a really beautiful well functioning little transportation hub.

    If you gotta wait for a train or the light rail this isn't a bad place to do it. The building is gorgeous and evokes memories of steam engines and parasols. There are decent snack bars there and the newsstand has the best cheese pretzels ever. Keep in mind that I love trains so that could be affecting this review. The trains are usually on schedule. The PATH train is underground and 24 hrs, the buses have schedules posted right outside the waiting lines so you are aware if you missed your bus or not. http://www.hobokenterminal.com/

    From inside the waiting room, love the clock with the daylight shining through.

I remember the chairs with the little TV's that you had to put money into to watch a program! Great stuff back there in the 1980's! But I must let you know that the service has slipped since that time. Many of the major stations have closed, leaving passengers outside. Also, the Customer Service Agents are hazardous to customers. I met an agent at Port Authority in Manhattan, NY that was dating an enemy of mine, that being said you can guess that I got the worst service ever from Greyhound. I was stranded at Port Authority for several days due to her poor customer service efforts. She would not refund my ticket nor schedule me for the next bus. After a days of a long mix up, I was refunded my money. Next, I would like to say Greyhound purchased Flixbus, that being said I want to say that it was awful dealing with this new addition as well. There were mean Asian Customer Service Rep. that refused to refund my ticket. Then an Indian Customer Service reps, on the phone, took my banking info but he did not return my money to the account. To conclude, I must say, when I thought thing could not get any worst, I was in an accident on a Greyhound Bus. First the driver drove off route. Then, he drove into a ditch. The bus almost topple over on its side in slow motion. The bus company was called but never the police. After an assessment, a new bus was sent to continue on.

They don't sell tickets here, nor do they sell tickets on board the boat - instead you'll have to download the NY Waterway mobile app to buy tickets. Alternatively, you might be able to buy a ticket at the Sheraton Hotel across the street, but that might be only for hotel guests. The ferry into NYC is super quick - about 6 mins during rush hour. However, the downside is that the connecting shuttle bus in NYC (included in the $9 price of the ferry ticket) does not leave right away, but rather waits at the NYC terminal for about 5-6 mins until the bus gets more full. Not a dealbreaker, but still a gripe. There are different routes for the shuttle - downtown / midtown / etc., so make sure to read the sign before boarding the bus. They are parked directly outside the terminal. From the Lincoln Harbor terminal to Flatiron district in NYC door to door is roughly 30 mins. (6 mins river crossing + 1 min walk to bus + 6 mins wait time at bus + bus travel through NYC traffic). Price per person is $9 one-way (cheaper if you buy monthly passes). For a cheaper (but more cumbersome) alternative route, consider walking to the Lincoln Harbor Light Rail stop (about a 4 min walk - near the Weehawken Whole Foods), then take the light rail to Hoboken terminal. Get off, walk to the PATH, and then take the PATH into NYC. This way will cost $5 per person each way (so about half what the ferry costs), but it involves significantly more walking and waiting (especially if you miss the light rail, which runs every 12-15 mins weekdays into Hoboken - and doesn't stop at Hoboken on the weekends).

However, there are many cons aside from the 7 minute ride. The ferry was in poor condition that I was on, it just appears dirty and dingy. Once I reached Midtown-- the boat returning to NJ looked a lot better, so maybe it's hot or miss. The ferry driver/ticket man didn't seem to have many social skills, and just wasn't friendly in the least. This was our first time riding and since they don't sell tickets onboard, we had issues with the app to purchase the tickets. He seemed flustered about that after we told him the app gave us all an issue. He then proceeded to stare at his watch while we were talking-- I understand you have a schedule to keep, but be a decent human being. All and all, it's a rapid way to travel, it's probably too expensive for such a short ride, the boat seems raggedy--- but again, it's an extremely quick way to travel that surely beats the NJ Transit bus.
