This the second time I have used this Hotel chain. Great location. great bed and connected to the Hitton via a walk way. We used the Hilton reastaurant and gift shop (because I forgot some essential things when packing).
What I did not like was that all of the plates, bowls, glasses and cutlery for breakfast are disposable. That is a lot of garbage.
The hot breakfast is weak. If you are happy with ceral, juice, and yogurt you will be fine
If you have never flown into JFK, you take the Airtrain to Federal Circle and call the hotel to be picked up

Nice place for a overnight stay. Transfer to Jfk was quick and painless :) got stuck in new york because of the airlines. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Even though the gift shop was closed every time we tried to purchase a shirt for the morning because our luggage was in airport land.

Was there in on route back home via New York. Beds are comfy. Rooms clean but lighting on the dim side. Breakfast is usual but spread is reasonable and quickly replenished - the morning crowd was brisk. The airport transfer between hotel and JFK is good. On arrival the pick up is at the Air Train's Federal Circle stop. For departure, the transfer dropped us at the right terminal. They arranged a cab for a night out for us very quickly at the front desk. Only hiccup for us was the room keys were not responsive for the rooms we got and had to be re-programmed. Overall good value and convenient.

We spent one brief evening here before an early morning flight. Friendly front desk staff, large quiet room. We dined in the surprisingly busy restaurant at the adjacent Hilton (entered through a connecting indoor passageway) and the food, though a tad pricey, was pretty good for an airport hotel. Friendly service in the restaurant, too. In addition to the usual Hampton Inn breakfast, we noticed pre-bagged to-go breakfasts at the front desk, a good idea. The only negative was a nail-biting wait (in 14-degree weather) for the 6:30 a.m. shuttle, since we were concerned about our flight check-in, and then there was quite a lot of traffic, but in the end we made it okay.
