TWA Hotel opens at JFK

[MarkBearSF]

While not a Cunard topic, per se, there have been so many questions for years about hotels near JFK for crossings (in short - there were no really good choices) - I thought this article on the new TWA Hotel, built around the iconic Eero Saarinen TWA terminal, might be of interest. (...Especially with intro room rates of $215/night.)

I've been following a few stories about this over the past few months.

 

I would consider the TWA Hotel New York's jet age counterpart to the Queen Mary in Long Beach.

The opening was covered on our local news last night. I hate flying out of JFK because it's a long drive compared to Newark, but I really want to stay in that hotel. Partly because I love to see "adaptive reuse" of buildings and partly because my very first flight to England was on TWA, departing from that terminal.

Hi, 

 

I have been following the development of this hotel and think it looks great. I don't usually fly into JFK, but I really want to stay here. I hope that this hotel is a huge success.
