Visited the TWA hotel for the first time. So much fun to see how they preserved and re-purposed the terminal. Lots of interesting history, great places to eat, drink and just hang out. As an extra bonus, it's connected to the JetBlue terminal, so we were in line at TSA within 5 minutes of leaving our room!

LOVED this hotel! Everything about it is fun and historical and a great vibe all around. Perfect for my layover from Europe though I wish I could have stayed a lot longer to experience the whole hotel without rushing through to make sure I got sleep for an early flight out.

My friend Elizabeth and I went to the TWA Hotel at JFK yesterday to have lunch at the Paris Cafe. Walking into the TWA Flight Center immediately brought back wonderful memories. We enjoyed walking through the terminal, seeing the office of the president of TWA, the Eero Saarinen designs and the flight attendant uniforms throughout the decades. The music of the 50's and 60's is a great touch and together with the sound of the split-flap displays on the Departure/Arrival board, the perfect background for my videos. When we read Connie's Story about the 1958 Lockheed Constellation Starliner, we were excited about going aboard. After lunch, we found out from Mr. Dwayne Jackson, the hotel manager, "Connie" would not be open until 4pm. Mr. Jackson saw our disappointment and he said he would give us a tour. That made our day! We were thrilled with the tour. Thank you, Mr. Jackson. We will be back. Lenore…

Other than it’s location on the airport this property has nothing going for it as a hotel. The staff are almost universally rude, the accommodation is adequate but not worth the price the charge and little touches that made it special have all been cut post pandemic. The 4500 Hong Kong dollars it cost me to stay here for one night represents truly abysmal value. This place just isn’t worth the money. Avoid at all costs.

If they give you a room on the 3rd floor demand another room. Terrible view of continual stream of passing cars picking up & dropping off passengers & sirens. It is the little things missing in the room, moisturizer (necessity whilst traveling), tv not functioning, no coffee making facilities or tea making. Great hotel for architecture, just not for staying in. Loved exploring the history & exhibits.

To Whom It May Concern, Just for fun on June 6, 2023 my friend Lenore and I decided to spend the day visiting the TWA Hotel, JFK International Airport. We remembered visiting the original (1960’s) TWA terminal with our families. Today’s visit to the TWA Hotel brought back fun travel memories. Today's TWA Hotel is just as impressive as we remembered in the 1960's. The atmosphere welcoming, comfortable and the staff very friendly. Following lunch at Jean-Georges' The Paris Café restaurant we happened to ask Mr. Dwayne Jackson, who was working in the lobby, and inquired about the time the Lockheed Constellation Connie opens to the public. Mr. Jackson said the Connie would open at 4 PM and asked us if we would be able to wait another 2 hours for the Connie to officially open. When we explained that we had been in the TWA Hotel since 11:00 A.M. and probably would not wait an additional 2 hours, to our surprise, Mr. Jackson offered to give us a private tour of the Connie. He introduced himself as the TWA Hotel Manager. He said he would be happy to give us a private tour of the Connie airplane's Starlight Lounge. I would like to express our sincere gratitude to Mr. Jackson for giving us a private tour of the Connie. Walking out to the Connie, climbing the Ramp Stair, entering the lounge was like boarding a a private plane! The experience was THE highlight of our visit. Mr. Jackson was very generous with his time. We greatly appreciated his giving us a private tour. Mr. Jackson is very personable and thoughtful. A breath of fresh air. He clearly enjoys his profession and shared his enthusiasm for the TWA Hotel. That being said, my friend and I will return to visit the TWA Hotel. Hopefully more friends will join us and enjoy the Connie airplane's Starlight Lounge cocktails. Sincerely, Elizabeth G.…

The room was very nice and well appointed, like on a cruise ship. The food was way overpriced and mediocre, and the drinks were very expensive. Good to stay if having a layover or a connecting flight. Staff interaction not too good.

After having one flight canceled, and another delayed until six in the morning, I needed someplace to get some rest. Beyond being convenient, the TWA Hotel was a truly enjoyable experience. The 1960's retro experience, along with contemporary conveniences was fun. The room was comfortable and provided a comfortable place to rest. Except for the reasons for my stay, I would not mind coming back and truly experience what the hotel has to offer.

We bought a day pass to relax before our flight. What do you do to relax? Go to the pool ofcourse! We've done day passes all over the state of florida at some very expensive hotels and I've never had to pay extra to go to the pool! Yes your reading that correctly. Not only do they charge to go to the pool($25 per person), they then want you to leave after 90minutes! The staff said it's a busy time of year so they came up with this dumb idea! It's worth walking through for about 20 minutes and then leave! Big rip off

We had an early flight, so like others we decided to stay over at the TWA hotel. The hotel / experience was beyond what I expected and imagined. We dressed up and went through different parts of the hotel and took photos. We swam at the roof top pool. I really enjoyed our cocktail on the Connie. We had an amazing dinner at the John George restaurant and it was also phenomenal. I had such a great time I want to stay again. We really enjoyed watching the planes come in from our room. We were right by a gate that brought a huge Emirates plane in. It was amazing.
