Take a ferry to both the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island! Tour the grounds, walk up The Crown, and take in the history! Be sure to take the Ferry from the New Jersey side (or NY if wanted)!
Immediately outside the hotel is a Ferry stop for you to take to NY! Stop at Midtown/W 39th St and from there you can go anywhere! Subways/Buses can be challenging, but have your phone GPS handy (or follow a friend) and you’ll find your way!
