The Best Hotels for Large Fan Groups and Supporters Clubs

When traveling with a massive organized supporter group or a huge extended family (10+ people), booking individual hotel rooms becomes a logistical nightmare. You need properties that are accustomed to massive group blocks, offer ample bus parking, and feature large communal areas where your group can gather before heading to the stadium.

1. Crowne Plaza Englewood

Located slightly north of the stadium, the Crowne Plaza is a massive hotel frequently used by touring sports teams and large bands. They have a dedicated group sales department that is highly experienced in handling massive room blocks, and they offer huge ballrooms and conference spaces that can be rented for private pre-match supporter rallies.

2. Teaneck Marriott at Glenpointe

This is a sprawling, resort-style complex located at the intersection of major New Jersey highways. It has hundreds of rooms, a massive lobby bar capable of handling dozens of chanting fans, and a huge parking lot that easily accommodates private charter buses.

3. DoubleTree by Hilton Fort Lee/George Washington Bridge

Located right at the base of the George Washington Bridge, this massive DoubleTree offers fantastic Japanese dining on-site and is accustomed to hosting massive international tour groups. It is highly strategic if your group plans to spend half the trip sightseeing in Manhattan and the other half attending matches at MetLife.

Group Booking Strategy

• Contact Sales Directly:

  Never try to book 15 rooms on Expedia. Call the hotel's Director of Sales directly to negotiate a group block rate and ensure your rooms are on the same floor.

• Charter Bus Parking:

  If your supporter group rented a private coach bus, verify with the hotel that they do not charge exorbitant oversized parking fees.
