Where to Stay in White Plains, NY

Hotels in White Plains at a Glance

Five properties passed our two-source check. Four sit inside the city of White Plains. One lists a White Plains address but appears under West Harrison on some booking sites. All five accept pets in some form, though policies differ, so ask before you bring a dog.

The Opus Westchester suits travelers who want a full-service hotel with a spa. Sonesta White Plains Downtown suits groups and anyone who wants a large hotel near the center of town. Cambria Hotel White Plains Downtown suits visitors who want a newer, smaller hotel with a restaurant. Residence Inn suits longer stays. Hyatt House suits travelers who want a kitchen and a free breakfast.

The Opus Westchester, Autograph Collection

The Opus Westchester stands at 3 Renaissance Square, White Plains, NY 10601. Call 914-946-5500. Marriott lists check-in at 4:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM. Guests must be at least 21 to check in, and the property is smoke-free.

The building was the Ritz-Carlton New York, Westchester for years. A hotel management company reported the redesign under the Autograph Collection brand, and a local business paper covered the ribbon cutting in May 2021. The hotel has 146 rooms, including 38 suites.

Marriott lists a spa, a fitness center, a business center, meeting space, a hair salon, and room service. A heated pool is part of the hotel, and sources describe the pool as both indoor and rooftop. Confirm the pool setup and hours when you call.

Dining sources disagree. Marriott lists the Opus Lounge for breakfast, Kanopi for seasonal dinners, and a steakhouse called Red Horse by David Burke. Two other sources name Kanopi, which they describe as a rooftop restaurant. We treat Kanopi as confirmed and the rest as worth a phone call.

Marriott says the hotel does not run an airport shuttle. The same page lists Westchester County Airport as about 7 miles away and notes bus, subway, and Metro-North stations in White Plains. We did not confirm parking terms, so ask about them.

Sonesta White Plains Downtown

Sonesta White Plains Downtown sits at 66 Hale Avenue, White Plains, NY 10601. Call 914-682-0050. Expedia lists check-in from 4:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM.

This hotel was the Crowne Plaza White Plains for more than three decades. A local business paper reports the rebrand to Sonesta took place on December 1, 2020, followed by a full renovation. The same report counts 403 guest rooms, a heated indoor pool, about 20,000 square feet of event space, and a Plaza Ballroom for large events. Pets are welcome, so ask about the policy.

Expedia adds a restaurant, a bar, a cafe, a 24-hour front desk, free Wi-Fi in rooms, and an airport shuttle. We could not confirm shuttle days, hours, or the breakfast arrangement from a second source. Ask before you rely on the shuttle.

Pick Sonesta if you are attending a large event, traveling with a group, or want a hotel with plenty of meeting rooms. Many old guides still call this hotel the Crowne Plaza, so search both names.

Cambria Hotel White Plains Downtown

Cambria Hotel White Plains Downtown stands at 250 Main Street, White Plains, NY 10601. Call 914-981-0500. Travelocity lists check-in from 3:00 PM and check-out before noon.

A local business paper describes the hotel as 130 all-suite rooms across eight stories in a mixed-use building with retail space and underground parking. Travelocity says the hotel opened in 2014. The paper also lists an on-site bistro. Travelocity lists a fitness center, a bar, and a daily breakfast buffet for a fee.

Travelocity says the hotel has no pool. Our earlier version of this guide said otherwise, and we removed the claim. If a pool matters, choose the Opus, Sonesta, or Hyatt House instead.

Dogs are allowed with limits and a fee. Confirm the current pet rules by phone.

Residence Inn by Marriott White Plains Westchester County

Residence Inn stands at 5 Barker Avenue, White Plains, NY 10601. Call 914-761-7700. Expedia lists check-in from 3:00 PM and check-out at noon.

Expedia lists a free breakfast buffet, a 24-hour gym, a business center, free Wi-Fi, and a restaurant. Rooms have separate dining areas. A guest review mentions a kitchen in a larger room, but no source we found confirms kitchens in every suite. Ask for a kitchen when you book if you need one.

Expedia does not list a pool, and our earlier version claimed an indoor pool. We removed the claim. Pets are allowed for a fee, and parking carries a daily charge.

Hyatt House White Plains

A hospital visitor page lists Hyatt House White Plains at 101 Corporate Park Drive, White Plains, NY 10604, with the phone number 914-251-9700. Hotels.com shows the same street address under West Harrison, NY 10604. This guide counts the hotel as a White Plains area stay.

Hotels.com lists check-in from 4:00 PM and check-out at noon. The listing also names a free breakfast buffet with an omelet bar, an outdoor pool and spa tub, a 24-hour fitness center, a lounge, a small market, and suites with full kitchens. Free self-parking and a free area shuttle are listed too. We could not confirm shuttle limits from a second source. Dogs are allowed with fees.

The location sits in an office park, not downtown. Plan on a car or a rideshare for dinner, and check the route to the train station before you book.

Motels and Budget Hotels Near White Plains

Travelers who search for cheap hotels in White Plains often find the same few names. We cannot compare price here, because rates change daily and we do not quote them. Use the Expedia link near the top of this page to sort by price for your dates.

A White Plains hospital visitor page lists several lodging options just outside the city. These include Motel 6 Elmsford at 19 W. Main Street, Days Inn Elmsford at 25 Valley Avenue, and Hampton Inn White Plains/Tarrytown at 200 West Main Street in Elmsford. The same page lists Westchester Marriott at 670 White Plains Road in Tarrytown, plus two SpringHill Suites and a Courtyard in Tarrytown and Tuckahoe.

These are single-source listings. We did not verify amenities, policies, or current status for any of them, and we did not verify the distance from downtown White Plains. Call each hotel before you book. Our earlier version placed the Westchester Marriott in Elmsford. The hospital page places the hotel in Tarrytown, so we use the Tarrytown address.

Where to Stay Near White Plains Attractions

Most visitors choose a hotel by errand, not by sight. Here is how the confirmed hotels line up with the places guests usually visit.

The Westchester County Center is a well-known event venue in the city. Expedia’s guide also lists the Westchester Mall, The Galleria at White Plains, The Source at White Plains, and City Center, which hosts free movies, concerts, and performances. A farmers market runs near City Center in warmer months. For a stay close to downtown, start with the Opus, Sonesta, Cambria, and Residence Inn, which all list White Plains street addresses with ZIP code 10601.

For outdoor time, the same guide lists Saxon Woods Park, a 700-acre park with a golf course, miniature golf, an aquatic playground, and hiking trails. Silver Lake Park and the Ebersole Ice Rink at Delfino Park also appear. Check each venue for current hours and seasons.

Earlier text on this page named a Westchester Performing Arts Center, a White Plains Historical Society building, and a Ritz-Carlton Golf Club. We could not verify them, so we removed them. Note the Ritz-Carlton hotel in town now operates as the Opus.

Getting to White Plains and Getting Around

The White Plains Metro-North station has express service to New York City. Expedia’s guide puts the trip at about 35 minutes. The same guide says New York City is about 20 miles south by road, with a drive under 30 minutes without traffic. Traffic often changes this, so allow extra time.

Westchester County Airport serves the area. Expedia names the airport HPN and lists the location as West Harrison. Marriott puts the airport about 7 miles from the Opus. LaGuardia is about 25 miles away and JFK about 35 miles, according to the same Marriott page.

Marriott notes bus, subway, and Metro-North stations in White Plains. For the walkable downtown stays, you can often skip a rental car. For Hyatt House or the Elmsford and Tarrytown options, plan on driving or using a rideshare.

How to Choose a White Plains Hotel

Start with your reason for the trip. Business travelers and event guests should compare the Opus and Sonesta, which both list large meeting space. Families may prefer a hotel with a pool and breakfast, which points to Hyatt House or the Opus.

Length of stay matters too. Residence Inn and Hyatt House market suite-style rooms and breakfast, which can help on a week-long trip. Confirm the kitchen details first.

Next, decide on location. Downtown hotels suit guests who want restaurants and trains nearby. Hyatt House and the Elmsford options suit guests with a car. Finally, read the cancellation and parking terms before you pay, because both vary by hotel and by date.

What We Checked and What We Could Not

We checked each hotel against at least two independent sources. These included a hospital visitor page, the Marriott site, Expedia, Travelocity, Hotels.com, and local business news. We confirmed addresses and phone numbers from the hospital page, the Marriott site, or both.

We could not confirm current rates, current availability, shuttle schedules, or kitchen details at Residence Inn. We could not confirm the exact pool layout at the Opus. We did not verify the Tarrytown, Tuckahoe, or Elmsford hotels beyond one listing.

We removed claims we could not support. These include star ratings, a pool at Cambria, an indoor pool at Residence Inn, and several named attractions. Always confirm details with the hotel before you book.
