Book the Suite

The staff at Hilton at woodcliff Lake were amazing. We got the chance to work with Joanne (who helped us book our suite) and Ryan (who helped catered) this team was nothing short of amazing. The hotel garden is beautiful for pictures. They were EXTREMELY accommodating and the room was spacious for our bridal team. The room was extremely, spacious, clean, modern and beautiful! We must have called Ryan about 5 times for our catering needs and every single call was answered professionally and promptly. I'm glad we chose this Hotel for our special day.

We used Hilton Woodcliff Lake as our main hotel for guests traveling into town for our wedding in January. Alex and the entire sales staff are fantastic to work with and made the process so easy for us. They helped us block rooms, plan for a shuttle service, and plan a post-wedding brunch. All of our guests talked about how pretty the hotel is and how close it is to New York City. We also got a lot of nice pictures in the lobby and outside on the grounds. Great hotel and I would recommend!

We recently used the HIlton Woodcliff lake to give our out of town guests a place to feel like home during our wedding. Getting married at the Florentine Gardens, the Hilton was close, and provided free shuttles to and from the venue! Working with Alex Mecca, and team on rooms and next morning brunch was easy and fun. They made the process seamless, and fun!
Would recommend for sure!!

We worked with Alex Mecca for our room block and breakfast the next morning after our wedding. We had looked at a few hotels in the area but their suite was the best! I had 12 girls having hair and makeup done and we had plenty of room for all of us comfortably. The last thing I wanted was to be crowded and people sitting on the floor. I cannot say enough about Alex Mecca!!! He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for me! It snowed three days before our wedding and I REALLY wanted to do our first look in the back by the gazebo. Alex shoveled the entire walk way for us, by himself, to make sure we could get there! It turned out to be one of my favorite pictures! He was efficient, thorough, and professional from beginning to end. I cannot thank him enough. It is all to common for people to just do the bare minimum but not Alex. He truly worked extra hard for us and it is vey much appreciated. The hotel bar was open after the wedding and we had a fun after party which a lot of people stayed out for. The hotel is very pretty and updated. Which is important when you are getting ready there because photos are being taken at the same time. Again, the suite was awesome but most of all I would recommend people to the Hilton because I know the service is excellent. All of the staff is friendly and accommodating! Thank you so much!!!

My parents and I worked closely with Alex Mecca and a number of other exceptional staff members at the Hilton Woodcliff Lake for our room block, post-wedding celebration, and guest breakfast. We used the bridal suite to get ready, and it was absolutely incredible. We looked at many other options, and this was by far the best. A shuttle was provided for our guests because we booked a certain number of rooms for the room block. The front desk handed out our welcome bags, Alex created a welcome letter that provided important information, and he even had a chilled bottle of champagne waiting for my husband and me on the wedding night. The bar was open after the wedding for my guests to wind down, and the common area was easily utilized for people who wanted to stay up and hang out after the bar closed at 2am (as long as we didn't get too noisy or cause disruptions near the guest rooms). Alex also set us up with someone to book the Crystal Ballroom for a continental breakfast the next morning. Everything worked so smoothly, and Alex was very easy to contact and he put us at ease through every step of the process. I have been to many weddings where the accommodations are less than impressive, but the amount of time, effort, and care that the Hilton Woodcliff Lake put into our day was amazing. We also were able to take pictures on the beautiful grounds that morning. The easy choice for a Bergen County wedding!

My husband and I decided to switch hotels late in the game and Scott came to our rescue. He was incredibly accommodating and extremely responsive! The Hilton has everything you are looking for as a bride-to-be. The suites are AMAZING -- huge, clean, with a bar and extra bathroom. My entire wedding party got ready here and there was still so much space. They provide shuttles to the venue for all hotel guests, if you meet a certain room quota. The shuttles were large and clean. They can accommodate handicap accessible guests, private brunches the next morning, their grounds are beautiful and we were able to take pictures there as well. All in all, we were so happy with this hotel and would HIGHLY recommend it to others! :)

We got married here at the end of April and I am a very detail oriented (anxious) bride. The staff at the hilton was amazing, particularly Tom, Stephanie, and Max. They listened to each question and concern that I had and addressed them quickly and amazingly. Everyone told me that things would go wrong on my wedding day, but I can honestly say that the day was PERFECT and that people are still talking about how amazing the room looked and how delicious the food was!

EXCELLENT SERVICE: I recently had the pleasure of working with the Hilton Woodcliff Lake for my 9/10/11 wedding. First I would like to start off by saying that Jeff, the Sales Manger, was absolutely amazing to work with & he is a huge part of why I am rating this venue 5 stars! Wedding planning can be extremely stressful, but Jeff was Always Quick to respond to my dozen emails & was Always able to answer all the questions I had! ...IN FACT, the day of the wedding, while in the limo on the way to the venue, I realized I told him the incorrect time that the party ended.. In a panic I emailed him from my phone asking him if it was possible to change the shuttle time, & he emailed me minutes later saying it was no problem!! AMAZING!!

Next, we had our post wedding brunch at the hotel & the food was excellent & room was very spacious for our 80+ guests! Mark, the Senior Convention Service Manager, was very catering to our requests & also very urgent with responding to all my emails!

BEAUTIFUL HOTEL: My husband and I were recommended to this vendor through our venue, The Estate at Florentine Gardens, as an option for our guests to stay! Once we visited, we knew it was the perfect place for us! A few things that stand out: the hotel lobby is very impressive when you first walk in, the bridal suite is HUGE & was extremely roomie for my 8 bridesmaids & I to get ready!, there is a restaurant on the premises, as well as a cute little coffee shop, very pretty grounds to take photos, the hotel bar is open till 2am:) Lastly & most importantly, the hotel provides shuttle service to and from your venue if you book X amount of rooms, which was amazing!

**Well deserved 5 stars & I would recommend this vendor to anyone looking for a hotel in Northern Jersey!

We went to the Hilton Wood Cliff Lake a year before our wedding. We really liked the idea of our guests staying at the hotel after the Reception. Therefore we booked. In August, 3 months before our wedding Tom called us and said the gentleman who was handling our wedding was no longer there and he would be handling it. Well Jim and I were a little concerned. Ever with the food, and presentation with such a large group, it was delicious. Anyhow, Tom was amazing, her sat with us, saw what we wanted and then made it happen. Everything on our wedding day was perfect. He was there to make certain it was how we wanted it. A month later people are still talking about how it was the best wedding they have ever been to. So if you are considering a hotel venue I recommend the Hilton Wood Cliff Lake.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
