From LaGuardia Airport (LGA)
LaGuardia (LGA) is the closest major airport to the hotel — sources list it at roughly 6.4–7.5 miles away and about a 17–23 minute drive with no traffic. A taxi or rideshare is the most direct door-to-door option.
If you prefer public transit, you can use MTA bus and subway connections from LGA into Midtown, then walk or transfer to reach the hotel; routes and required transfers vary by terminal and time of day, so check current MTA schedules before you travel.
- Taxi / Rideshare: Door-to-door; typical fastest option off airport property
- Public transit: MTA buses connect terminals to subway lines into Midtown (expect transfers)
- Private car service: Book independently — hotel does not provide airport transfers
| Option | Notes |
|---|---|
| Taxi / Rideshare | Direct, ~17–23 minutes with no traffic |
| Public transit | MTA bus + subway; variable travel time and transfers required |
| Private car | Arrange in advance with your preferred operator |
From John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK)
JFK is listed at about 16 miles from the hotel. A taxi or rideshare provides a direct route but can take significantly longer than LGA depending on traffic.
To use public transit, take the AirTrain to a subway or Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) connection into Manhattan and finish with a short subway ride or a walk toward 1227 Broadway. Confirm current schedules and service changes before you travel.
- Taxi / Rideshare: Direct but travel time depends on traffic across Queens and into Manhattan
- AirTrain + subway/LIRR: Connects to Jamaica or Howard Beach for transfers into Manhattan
- Private car service: Common for arrivals with lots of luggage or groups
| Option | Practical tip |
|---|---|
| Taxi / Rideshare | Good if you want door-to-door service; budget extra time for traffic |
| AirTrain + Train/Subway | Often cheaper; requires transfers and a short walk or subway at the end |
| Private car | Pre-booked cars can be timed to your flight arrival |
From Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR)
Newark (EWR) is about 16 miles from the hotel. A taxi or rideshare is direct but crosses the Hudson and Manhattan traffic; travel time varies with peak-hour congestion.
For public transit, take NJ Transit or Amtrak from Newark Airport or Newark Penn Station into New York Penn Station, which is less than 0.6 miles from the hotel — then walk or take a short subway/ride to 1227 Broadway.
- Taxi / Rideshare: Direct route, time varies with traffic and crossing the Hudson
- Train: NJ Transit or Amtrak to New York Penn Station — then walk (~10–15 minutes) or transfer to local transit
- AirTrain + NJ Transit: Use Newark AirTrain to connect to NJ Transit at Newark Liberty Intl. station
| Option | Why choose it |
|---|---|
| Taxi / Rideshare | Simplest door-to-door choice from EWR |
| NJ Transit to Penn Station | Avoids road traffic; Penn Station is within walking distance of the hotel |
| Amtrak | Good if you already have Amtrak tickets or prefer train service |
