Great location, super easy checkin and checkout. Good room and nice twa styling and great touches. Bed was comfortable and useful charging points. Liked the free photo booth tucked behind the shop!
Super convenient to get to any JFK terminal and avoid the traffic into airport the day of the travel. Way more pricey - but that convenience and peace of mind is worth the extra money
The rooms small but clean, refrigerators don’t work, elevator buttons/key swipe work in some but not in others. There is a pool for a fee of $25 per person for a 2 hours time slot. After each one everyone is asked to leave and a new group comes in. Pool small but very neat view. Pool bar food beat food on site. The main areas are neat as the model an older time but most areas need a restoration. Old floors, displays faded cracked and the stairs to the connie TWA airplane seating bar area are rusted through jn spots. The service in food court is terrible. Location is great
Theming, room amenities and proximity are great but check in was LONG which is exactly what you don’t want after a long flight. Lobby looked dirty, like an airport probably because of the number of guests coming through. Also because of airport construction (not at the hotel so not the hotel’s fault) we had to walk through a bit of a sus area to get there. For the price, I expected better. However it is THE closest to the airport so if that is your deciding factor it’s still a pretty good place to stay.
We had a great stay! The hotel has such a fun, kitschy, unique vibe with tons of Instagram-worthy spots. The staff was very accommodating, our room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the gym was great. We didn’t get a chance to use the pool, but it looked like a vibe.
Such a unique experience, and I’d highly recommend it if you have an early flight or long layover and want the convenience of staying right at the airport.
Really loved staying at this gem located at Terminal 5 at JFK. What a walk back through time! Loved all the nostalgic details in the room as well including a Life magazine from 1962 and an old timey phone. The only area for improvement would be the staff at the front desk and in the food hall. They seemed disengaged and really could not be bothered. Each time I needed something, I would keep looking their way (no customers in front of me) and had to ask to be waited on. There was one exception - the young man in the gift shop could not have been friendlier. I will be back, however, as it was just such a cool experience. Bed was comfy, room was quiet, and view was amazing!
This is an excellent stop over hotel. The pool is amazing and worth paying extra for ( it is only free 7am-11am). Food options limited but the cafe was ok for 1 day. Yes it is expensive!!!
Very few amenities in room. No closet, no drawers, no iron and housekeeping never appeared during my two-night stay. The pool is small and should not be heated during the summer. It is not free to guests and your time is limited to 1-3/4 hours. You can come back and pay another fee but you have to wait 15 minutes. Rooms are very expensive. Staff is great as is the architecture. And the food at the Paris Cafe is very good, but also expensive. If you are interested in architecture, a dinner at the restaurant or a one-night stay is more than enough.
The room was nice, However, they charged me after I left the property for a fee that was not listed anywhere and I didn’t know anything about so that did not make me happy. But the good news is the restaurant is good and the food court is very helpful and the vibe is pretty nice.
