Zašto Ljudima Sviđa

7.7⭐219 recenzija
  • The 1962 Eero Saarinen terminal is a legitimate architectural masterpiece
  • Runway views from the rooftop infinity pool (heated to 95°F in winter)
  • The 'Connie' cocktail lounge inside a vintage Lockheed Constellation airplane

Brzi pregled: A stunning, Instagram-perfect museum that functions as a mediocre, overpriced hotel.

Pregledano od @wheres.kam: I honestly didn't want to leave the airport. Watching jets take off from the infinity pool while sipping a cocktail was surreal. The whole place feels like a time machine to 1962—the details in the room, especially the rotary phone and runway views, are just perfect.

Gost koji je boravio ovdje je rekao

The hype

Visually breathtaking and fun for a few hours, but the rooms are small, worn, and lacking basic amenities like coffee makers.

Reality check

You are paying for the photo ops, not 5-star hospitality; expect stained carpets, dusty corners, and a 'spirit airlines' approach to fees.

  • You want to watch A380s take off from your bed
  • You love mid-century modern design and retro aesthetics
  • You need to be steps away from JetBlue Terminal 5

Čistoća i održavanje

6
  • Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Reports of missed trash, dusty surfaces, and 'rushed' turnover are common.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Generally okay, but watch for grimy switches and hair dryer bags with stains.
  • Maintenance: High traffic means visible wear: scuffed walls, stained carpets, and occasional broken blinds.
  • Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality, nothing plush. Pool towels are thin.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby smells like 60s nostalgia (good), hallways can smell musty or like cleaning chemicals.

Pre nego što rezervirate

Korisno znati

  • The 'Facility Fee' (approx. $20/night) covers Wi-Fi and gym access but NOT the pool during peak times.
  • No room service, but the Food Hall has vendors like Halal Guys and Mister Softee (hours vary).
  • The hotel is connected to Terminal 5; take the AirTrain to get to other terminals (free within the airport).

Šta pakovati

  • Flip flops for the pool (no robes provided in standard rooms)
  • Instant coffee or tea bags (rooms have no coffee makers)
  • Earplugs (just in case you get a noisy neighbor)

Genie za sobe

Najbolji izbor

  • Deluxe King with Runway View (Hughes Wing) for the best plane spotting
  • Standard King if you just need sleep and don't care about the view (save ~$100)

Sobe koje treba izbegavati

  • Historic TWA View rooms (often face the lobby/terminal interior, offering less privacy)
  • Rooms near the elevators in the Saarinen wing (high foot traffic)

“I am a huge aviation enthusiast and would love a high-floor room in the Hughes Wing facing Runway 4L/22R for the best spotting photography.”

Česta pitanja i skriveni saveti

Sve što zaista trebate da znate pre nego što rezervirate.

Is the pool free?

Only in winter (Nov-May) or early mornings (7am-10:45am) in summer. Otherwise, it's $25-$50 per adult reservation.

Can I walk to my terminal?

Yes for Terminal 5 (JetBlue). For all other terminals, you must take the AirTrain (station is across the street).

Is there parking?

Valet only at the hotel entrance ($40-$80/day depending on demand). Self-parking is available at the adjacent Terminal 5 Yellow Lot.

Are pets allowed?

Yes, for a fee of $75 per pet per stay. Pets are allowed in the lobby but not the pool or restaurants.

Is there a gym?

Yes, a massive 10,000 sq ft fitness center with a Peloton room. It's one of the best hotel gyms in the world.

Can I check in early?

Yes, but it will cost you. ~$75 for 8am-12pm check-in, ~$25 for 12pm-2pm check-in.

Insajderski saveti

  • ✨

    Book a 'Daytripper' rate (4-12 hours) if you just want the experience without the overnight price tag.

  • ✨

    The 'Connie' airplane bar allows walk-ins, but it's tiny; go right at opening (usually 4pm) to snag a seat.

  • ✨

    Skip the hotel valet; park in the T5 Yellow Lot and walk 5 minutes to save money and time.

5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete

  • 💡The red carpet in the hallways is iconic but often stained and worn from heavy luggage traffic.

  • 💡There are no trash cans in the rooms—just a weird 'placemat' system for waste.

  • 💡The mini-fridges are completely empty (no minibar) and often not cleaned out from previous guests.

  • 💡You have to pay extra for a pool reservation even if you are a paying hotel guest (in summer afternoons).

  • 💡The 'Historic View' rooms basically look into the lobby/terminal, meaning people can see you if your curtains are open.
