Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają

7.7⭐219 opinii
  • 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

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

Przejrzane przez @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.

Goście, którzy tutaj przebywali, powiedzieli

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

Czystość i Konserwacja

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.

Porady dla wtajemniczonych

  • ✨

    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 rzeczy, które warto wiedzieć przed wyjazdem

  • 💡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.
