Although the deadline for the MangaNEXT special room rate is over, there are still rooms available in the official MangaNEXT hotel, the Crowne Plaza Meadowlands. The Crowne Plaza is only five miles from New York City, and only 3 miles from the Secaucus NJ Transit train station. All the MangaNEXT events will be taking place in the Crowne Plaza, so why not stay the weekend where all the action is? For more information, visit the Crowne Plaza website.
