To the Coupe de France winners of Lyon & the Ligue 1 Champions Montpellier, congratulations on winning your recent titles.

If you wish to ask in this thread or P.M. me, it's fine either way. Just want to help out you good folks when you come over to the states for the first trophee in the next French league season.

Looking forward to it. I have my match ticket and airline tickets but still looking for a decent hotel. The thing is, I probably need one near the airport (I arrive Friday at midnight and leave Monday at 7am!) but I would like one that has convenient transport nearby that goes into Manhattan. Any ideas??
Ive seen some rooms as low as $65. I'd love to get it down lower (around $50ish) because I'm a cheap-ass in some ways.
I doubt you'll find lower than $65, although it's important to also consider transit costs. If you get a hotel with a) PATH train access and b) an airport shuttle then you'll save quite a bit of money on transit. If you stay right by Newark airport you'll have to use NJ Transit to access the Newark/Harrison area and the fares to and from the airport are inflated (one way:$8.50 to Newark Penn, $12.50 to Manhattan). The PATH by contrast is $2 and would give you access to Manhattan and Harrison. If you have any questions about a specific location, I'll do my best to answer.
Like ASU55RR said, Its better if you stay in newark because you will be paying the difference in train transportation plus if you are flying in if the hotel doesn't have a shuttle then that is another $5-8 bucks you'll be paying. I did a priceline name your own price for Newark (fri-saturday) and managed to get the Best Western Robert Treat court for $77 (tried from $60 and up) after taxes it came out to $96 a night. I'm only going to be there friday to saturday as I'm taking advantange and going to the game friday night too rather than go back to philly to just go back a few hours later. I also have an extra ticket for the game if anyone wants to go. If anyone here doing anything friday night or saturday before the game let me know. Be nice to meet some BSers.
