I used to travel to NYC from Aus extremley regularly.
Newark always sucked for me - not so much getting to or from it but there always seemed to be massive delays getting off the ground. I think the worst was sitting on the tarmac for about 2 hours which is the last thing I wanted to do with 24 hours of flying time in front of me.
Definatley go with the car service - its only $30-$40 over a cab and much more enjoyable.
As for hotels I only ever stayed at Millenium Hilton down in the financial district and its no longer open so I cant help you there. You used to be able to get great deals there over the weekend as they were a business hotel mainly, and it was only a $5 cab ride up to where all the action is.
