There was no hot water in the entire hotel. This was explained at check in and I was told we would get a credit. We stayed here just as a place to lay our heads for a lacrosse tournament so I was fine with that. I was given keys to a room to check into. When I went into that room someone’s personal items were in there indicating that room was already occupied. I go back to the front desk. I explained this and was given keys to another room. This room only had one bed and I had booked two queens. I was then told there were no two beds available. I slept on what appeared to be an oversized chair and used my coat as a blanket since there wasn’t one in the room and I didn’t want to battle the lobby again. I suggested this hotel to 3 other families as a great spot to stay and they did as well so I was very disappointed and most likely won’t be staying here again considering nothing was done to help the situation.

I stayed at the Sonesta Select Newark Christiana Mall in November 2025, and it was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences I’ve had. There was no hot water during my entire stay, and management did not provide any updates or a timeline for when it would be fixed. Why stay at a hotel if you can’t even take a proper shower? They offered to cancel customers' reservations without penalty, but where am I supposed to go last-minute and pay extra? The cleanliness was also unacceptable -- the nightstand was sticky, the bed sheets had brown/black stains, and the bathroom was unkept, with toothpaste marks on the faucet and a tub that wouldn’t drain. These problems are easily fixed. There was an odd aroma throughout the room. Overall, the room felt neglected and poorly maintained. I expected far better from a Sonesta. I would not recommend this property until the management addresses these maintenance and housekeeping issues.

There was no hot water during our stay. We didn’t find out until our last night why. They didn’t message us our leave a message up in the room. There was a note at the desk but not until everyone started to complain. We were told if we left we would get a full refund but only got a partial refund after leaving at 8PM and finding another hotel 30 minutes away. My daughter had a competition that next day. Additionally the entire first floor smelled like marijuana.

There was no hot water both nights of our stay! Calls to the front desk resulted in someone saying, we are aware of the problem. It’s an old hotel. The front desk staff had a care less, attitude. No help whatsoever. I would never recommend this hotel.

What a strange weekend… Upon check-in, we were informed that the hotel would be without hot water for the weekend. Since we were only staying one night, and planned on using the pool, we decided it wasn’t worth it to find other accommodations. The front desk staff were PHENOMENAL, though, and took good care of us. The price was fair, the common area in the lobby was well-maintained. Our room definitely had some cleanliness issues (stained sheets, possibly old blood?) and the walls behind the doors looked as if they could use a good wipe down. The room didn’t have any odor though, and was well-stocked. My only other gripe was that housekeeping entered my room 2 hours before checkout while I was using the bathroom. Scared me half to death! As someone who worked at a hotel for almost a decade myself, I would still recommend this location. Despite some of my issues, we had a great stay and will most likely be returning. Hopefully with the addition of hot water!

You get what you pay for, honestly. The room was fine, but a bit cramped and oddly set up. I did not have a do not disturb door hanger, and I didn't have hot water on my final day. But if you need somewhere mostly just to sleep for a night or two, it does the job. There are definitely far worse places to go.
