Hotel New Jersey

This basic and clean low-rise in the somewhat easier-going section of the center near Parque Central makes a shady budget choice. Rooms are relatively large and well maintained, with a cheery palette of colors and assorted decorative elements from over the decades – though it must be said, from a security standpoint, that this was the only hotel in Caracas that let us see a room unaccompanied. The atmospheric attached tasca is usually packed with businesspeople.
