Best Places to Stay in Long Beach, NY: A Business Traveler's Guide
2026-01-06
If you're visiting Long Beach for a corporate retreat or a week of "work-from-beach" productivity at BridgeWorks, you'll want a stay that balances professional amenities with our famous coastal vibe.
Here are the top hotel recommendations within minutes of our workspace.
1. The Allegria Hotel (Luxury Oceanfront)
Distance to BridgeWorks: 4-minute drive / 10-minute walk.
The Vibe: Sophisticated, modern, and upscale.
Why we love it: As Long Island's only truly oceanfront luxury hotel, The Allegria offers a high-end experience. It features a seasonal rooftop pool and the L'onda Lounge, which is perfect for sunset networking.
Pro-Tip: Ask for a city-view room if you want to watch the sunrise over the bay, or an oceanfront suite to hear the waves between your meetings.
2. The Long Beach Hotel (Event-Ready & Practical)
Distance to BridgeWorks: 5-minute drive / 15-minute walk.
The Vibe: Classic beach hotel with a focus on events.
Why we love it: This hotel is located just steps from the boardwalk and features a massive 4,000-square-foot Surf Room. It's a great choice for larger teams or those who need a reliable, mid-range stay.
Pro-Tip: Their on-site Bar and Grill is a convenient spot for a quick breakfast before heading over to your private office at BridgeWorks.
3. Boutique Stays & Airbnbs
The Vibe: Hyper-local and residential.
Why we love it: Long Beach is famous for its "Bungalow" style homes. For those staying a week or longer, a local Airbnb in the West End or Canals offers a more quiet, residential feel. Many local hosts even provide beach passes, which you can use after you finish your workday at BridgeWorks.
Making the Most of Your Stay
Commuter Convenience: Both major hotels are a short walk from the Long Beach LIRR station. If you're staying at The Allegria, you can hop off the train and be in your room in under 8 minutes.
BridgeWorks as Your Satellite Office: While hotels have Wi-Fi, they can be noisy. Most business travelers stay at these hotels but book a $45 Day Pass at BridgeWorks to ensure they have a professional, quiet environment with 1Gbps fiber internet for their actual work hours.
