What Is the Motel 6 EWR Airport Parking Package and How Does It Work?

On Triply, Motel 6 Newark Airport parking is a parking-only booking. You reserve a space in the Motel 6 lot at 853 Spring St, check in at the office when you arrive, and take the complimentary shuttle to EWR. Triply does not sell the hotel room or a park-sleep-fly bundle, so there is no room in the booking. Your car stays in the lot for the dates you booked.

The basic flow works like this:

1. Book parking online for your dates.
2. Arrive at the lot and check in at the office. Allow at least 30 minutes for check-in and shuttle boarding.
3. Take the complimentary shuttle, which runs 24 hours a day, every 15 minutes.
4. The shuttle drops you at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR).
5. Your car stays in the lot until you return from your trip.
6. On return, collect your luggage, then call 908-527-1300 to arrange your pickup.

Parking is booked for the dates you choose, with free cancellation and a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in. Trucks, vans, Ford Explorer-size vehicles and half-ton pickups must be booked under the 'large vehicle' option. Part of the price is paid at the lot.

How Much Does Motel 6 Newark Airport Parking Cost?

Triply lists Motel 6 Newark Airport parking at about $12/day. A week comes to about $82 at that daily rate before tax. A 7-night booking bills 8 days, so the checkout total with NJ tax is $103.13. Part of the price is paid at the lot. There is no separate room rate because Triply does not sell the room.

Here's how that compares to other options at EWR (on-airport rates are booked with the Port Authority, not Triply):

For parking only, Motel 6 is one of the lower-priced Triply lots near EWR at about $12/day. Apex Airport Parking is slightly cheaper at about $11/day, with a free 24/7 shuttle every 10 minutes. It is a valet lot, so you leave your keys, and small SUVs (+$5/day), large SUVs (+$7/day) and trucks (+$10/day) pay a surcharge at the lot. Both lots collect part of the price at the lot.

How Far Is Motel 6 From Newark Liberty International Airport?

Motel 6 Newark Airport is at 853 Spring St, Elizabeth, listed 1.3 miles from EWR. It is on the same street as the Renaissance Newark Airport Hotel (1000 Spring St) and Hilton Newark Airport Parking (1170 Spring St) lots, which Triply also sells, and close to Apex Airport Parking at 819 Spring St. Allow at least 30 minutes for check-in and shuttle boarding.

If you're driving from the New York City area, plan for traffic on I-95 and the approach roads. Use the Waze live traffic map before you leave — especially during peak morning and evening hours near the airport. Road construction near EWR in 2026 may add a few extra minutes to your approach.

Is Motel 6 EWR Parking Cheaper Than Newark Airport's Own Parking Lots?

On-airport parking at Newark Liberty International Airport is booked with the Port Authority, not Triply. The figures used in this article are $60 to $70/day for terminal garages and $35/day for the P6 Economy Lot (or $21/day pre-booked). Confirm current rates with the Port Authority before you book. Motel 6 Newark Airport parking on Triply is about $12/day, so on those figures it costs less per day.

Here's a 7-day cost comparison to put the numbers in context:

• P3 (Terminal C) on-airport: 7 days × $70 = $490
• P6 Economy Lot (drive-up): 7 days × $35 = $245
• P6 Economy Lot (pre-booked): 7 days × $21 = $147
• Motel 6 Newark Airport: about $82 for 7 days
• Apex Airport Parking: about $79 for 7 days
• Hilton Newark Airport Parking: about $100 for 7 days

For a week-long trip, Motel 6 comes to about $82 at the daily rate times 7. A 7-night booking bills 8 days and adds NJ tax, so checkout is $103.13. The P6 Economy Lot is the cheapest on-airport choice on the figures above. For a full breakdown of what EWR's economy option offers, check our EWR long term parking P6 guide.

The one trade-off: on-airport lots are steps from your terminal. Off-site lots need a shuttle ride, and Motel 6 asks you to allow at least 30 minutes for check-in and boarding. For longer trips, the lower daily rate can justify that extra time.

What Amenities Are Included With the Motel 6 EWR Parking Package?

Triply sells parking only at Motel 6 Newark Airport, so no room is included. Here is what the listing states:

• A parking space in the Motel 6 lot at 853 Spring St, Elizabeth
• Complimentary airport shuttle, 24 hours a day, every 15 minutes
• On-demand return pickups: call 908-527-1300 after you collect your luggage

The Motel 6 listing does not state covered parking, valet or EV charging.

It is the priciest Triply lot at EWR, and the only one that states indoor parking.

If you want a hotel with a restaurant on site, Hilton Newark Airport Parking (1170 Spring St, about $14/day) and Renaissance Newark Airport Hotel (1000 Spring St, about $13/day) both list a restaurant. Triply sells parking only at both. Compare more options in our guide to Newark airport hotel parking.

What Are the Best Alternatives to Motel 6 for EWR Airport Parking?

If Motel 6 doesn't fit your dates, or you want a different shuttle or price, several alternatives exist near Newark Liberty International Airport. Here's how the Triply options stack up (all parking only):

Among Triply lots with a shuttle, Apex Airport Parking at about $11/day is the lowest-priced, and it is a valet lot, so you leave your keys. If you like to follow your shuttle live, Hilton Newark Airport Parking offers tracking at trackmyshuttle.com (code 1170) and is the closest lot at 1 mile. If you want indoor parking or EV charging, Snap Parking is the only Triply lot at EWR that states them. The cheapest overall is Red Carpet Inn at about $5/day, but it has no shuttle, so plan on Uber or Lyft both ways.

For security, Renaissance lists a fenced lot with security cameras, Hilton lists a CCTV-monitored lot, and Apex is monitored 24 hours a day with a front desk open 24/7. You can also review what real travelers have found at the Motel 6 specifically in our related article on Motel 6 Newark airport parking reviews.

Before driving to the airport, check TSA PreCheck enrollment if you haven't already. With the AirTrain running on reduced schedules in 2026, a faster security experience saves you meaningful time once you arrive at EWR.
