Hotels near Far Rockaway, NY

“The hotel was very nice and comfortable. It's actually prettu luxurious looking. My only complaint is the area seemed a bit sketchy, but I got a parking spot right in front and really enjoyed my stay there. I missed my flight so had to rebook for the next day. This was a great option to stay for the layover. It wasn't too far from the airport and IHOP was close that I could go for breakfast when I was done.”

“Had some trouble booking online given cost and lmitations for needing one night with family of 4 (i.e. occupancy requirements per NY law)

Gat a chance to see the place in person while visiting family here at the beach. Beautiful location, great ambiance and looks like impressive food / service.

Hopefully will get a chance to stay in the near future perhaps when booking and schedule will allow it. Would recommend a visit to the grounds at the very least.”

“If I could give a 20 out of 10 I would! All the staff at the hotel were amazing. My husband and I stayed here the night before our wedding, got ready in 2 separate suites the day of our wedding, and stayed the night of our wedding. They made sure that my husband and I were on 2 different floors so that we would not run into each other. We gave the front desk staff welcome bags to give to each guest upon arrival. They fulfilled all of our requests with ease and professionalism. They even surprised us with a complimentary bottle of champagne the night of our wedding. How thoughtful!! We also booked a Post Nuptial Brunch the following day after our wedding. The food was delicious and the service was perfect! The front desk staff was outstanding and the manager, Matt, was so attentive and easy to communicate with. He always answered my emails promptly and with all the information I needed, if not more!! This made me so confident that our stay here would be nothing less than excellent. If you are looking for a no stress stay with staff who will make your special day easier, please book now with Courtyard by Marriott in Westbury!!!”

“I am a native Nyer who moved and back visiting from NC. Stayed here as the reviews were better than others around. While this was a tad pricer I decided why not. We arrived around 8pm. At first look the property looks really good. There were valets who we asked where to park and they showed us the other side of the building. On entry in the lobby, it's clean, uncluttered and well lit. No musty odors. We got to our room and we were impressed. I had no expectations but was nicely surprised. I am always on the look out for a room not well cleaned. Hair on the pillow or bathroom floor...NOPE. there was none of that. We ordered room service and the bread basket with the olive oil was really good. The fries..were crispy and done well. The room was modern enough, clean. Not a dust in sight. Even in the morning. Bravo.We actually decided we would stay here again.No complaints.Rooms: The rooms are spacious. Had the king room.Food & drinks: Food was good. A bit pricey but worth it.”

“I read the reviews ahead. I suppose if you're looking for the bad you will see the bad. We had THE BEST TIME. My 12 year old son and I stayed for a night. Check in was easy, room was great, food was great, building was amazing. We hung out in the pool for hours. The kids were all there chatting about what's there, what's landing, what's coming later. We ate in the Paris cafe for dinner. Service was slow but we enjoyed the pizza very much. I had more fun as a parent than expected. I would def go back. Our room looked out over the runway, it was super clean, bed was comfy, zero complaints. The bar in the room has exceptional crystal glassware. No mini bar in the fridge so pack ahead. Fancy wine glasses, bring your own bottle. I got one cocktail at the pool and they don't hold back on the liquor. Pay an extra $4 for a pretty plastic TWA cup to keep.”

“This was the best location with everything you can need within close proximity. The hotel is perfect and the staff was one of the best I have encountered! I highly recommend!!”

“One of the last motels left in Queens that hasn't been turned into a migrant shelter. It's the same old Kew... Jungle Room ..Mirror room . You know what you came there for . Price still right ?”

“Sooo we had a change in flights and spent the night. Kinda fast in and out. Overall it’s fine, not my favorite Hyatt but really did the job. Very strange location, I had trouble figuring out where to park. No signs! Plus I was jet lagged. I’ll be back soon for another layover, I’ll probably check out the casino just to see where I’m at!”

“I'm a New Yorker born and bred, so when I tell you New York has changed boy I'm not kidding! This is the first time I had to pay to stay at a hotel. Surprisingly with the city bring over crowded we had a difficult time locating a room ourselves. So we got a booking agent. She got a nice room at Best Western on Van Wyck. Room was clean and nice. Especially the bathroom. The receptionist was knowledgeable and pleasant. My only negative experience was the breakfast. It was unappealing and their wasn't good choices. Being this hotel is consider to be choice. I expect more. There was cereal, yogurt. Just Blah! Best Western needs to do a better job.”

“The Rockville Centre Hotel is wonderful!Great staff, conveniently located to transportation into NYC, and close to a variety of shops and restaurants. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Rooms: Every room has a microwave and refrigerator.”

“This place was both less and more. Less in the fact that you'd call down to the desk and they say they didn't get a call. As a result, I had to lie there with a beeping fire alarm all night and still get up and go to work the next day. Less in that you'd go in to the desk at say, 230am because you have a long drive ahead of you and no amount of hellos or knocking can wake whoever is taking a nap in the office. I had to ask the security guard to get the night person.

It was More in the fact that the staff even tho they didn't have much English, were very nice and helpful ppl. When I returned from work the day after the beeping fire alarm, I saw one of the you ladies and explained to her what I need and within 5 mins, a man was there to fix it for me. I had stopped by the reception desk and told the guy who was working there but when I opened the door after work, the beeping greeted me which means he forgot to do his job and have it fixed when I was gone all day.
It was More in the sense that when I had an issue with the washing machine the same young man rushed to my assistance and took it apart and got it fixed for me so I could wash my clothing. Real nice staff, those people.

Food & drinks: About 40 restaurants within walking distance of the hotel I was told when I enquired.”

“A lot more pleasant staff than you would expect in a JFK airport hotel. Rooms are up to standard, the restaurant was pretty good with one friendly and extremely overworked guy (and maybe someone in the back, but for all I know he cooked the meals too), and the neighborhood is actually pretty nice to walk around. Parking is $40 a day but that's NYC for you.”

“I normally stay in NJ because of the price, but needed to be on the other side of Manhattan. This hotel was all around the best for its price, location, staff, and stay. Our carpet was damp when we entered but realized they had just shampooed it, which made it smell great. The room was super clean. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. It's set in a quiet and safe neighborhood with plenty of free parking in the area if you don't want to pay valet. It's next to the highway, but still very quiet at night. Slept so well. We will definitely be staying at this hotel again.

Rooms: Super clean room; freshly shampooed carpet; smelled great!

Safety: Quiet and safe neighborhood. Schools near by.

Food and drinks: Convenient stores close by; walking distance, but they also sell snacks and drinks in the lobby.”

“Been coming here for years. Staff is always nice to me & my fiancé. Never had no issues at all coming here. It had a vending machine in lobby full of chips/candy/soda. Also they had 4 hour rooms & over night stays. It is no longer a hotel it’s now a shelter. I will miss coming here so much !!!!Walkability: Walkable to the avenue, and near buses to travel. Food areas are close by.Food & drinks: Different places to eat”

“Location is not very favorable for after-hours. I was told by the hostess that restaurants closes around 8pm. Also not a lot of options to eat. You will have a hard time looking for places to eat. Your only option will be doordash. Room quite comfortable but I have seen better options for the same price. Worth looking other reviews and assess your needs. Does not offer breakfast. 15-20 minutes walk from a Dunk'n Donuts.”

“I loved the suite that I stayed in. It was a one bedroom suite that had another king bed in the other room. It was nice and spacious. I used this room to get ready for my wedding (getting make up and hair done )and at one point we had 9 people in the room and we weren’t on top of each other. The room was clean and new . I will say parking isn’t the greatest(they don’t have a free parking lot) in this location so I did pay for valet which I believe they use the parking lot for their valet. I did recommend some of my wedding guest to stay at this hotel as well.”

“Worked with Rahul to set up a block for our wedding. He was friendly and professional to work with and helped my wife and I for our special day. Our guests appreciated the size of the rooms, the included breakfast, easy wifi access, easy access to Whole Foods across the street, and easy access to the train, just 10 minutes away. Good value, overall.”

“My out of town family had a great time at the hotel. Service was great as well.

Rooms: clean and refreshing

Safety: always someone at the desk

Walkability: shopping areas close by

Food and drinks: Breakfast was great. All the food was fresh.”

“Great place. Clean rooms Comfortable beds. Staff is friendly and helpfulNeeded a bottle of water at 3am, staff opened the case for me and gave me 2. Walked to diner in the morning. 2 blocks away. Great people Great neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again”

“This was close to the airport. Waited over an hour for the shuttle (aka, SUV) then he was rude, and drove so fast,with music so loud. We almost hit another car. The desk gal was nice. There was glass on our room floor, just small shards sparkling with my flashlight, after 4 pokes, I had to put back on my shoes. Noisy 1st floor. Ck out was easy. The driver in the AM was nice,”

“I think people expect the Ritz sometimes with their reviews. For a hotel, on a connection to Europe it was great for our family. Proximity to airport was very good, food was good both breakfast and dinner. We slept well...And people were very nice at front desk.”

“I would give it 5 stars because everything went nice and smoothly. However, the rooms are SO SMALL! We got the king size bed and the pictures looked more spacious but it was so tiny! Also, anytime anyone opened or shut the door the whole room shifted a bit! But, altogether it wasn't a bad stay!”

“This is a really nice hotel it's a bit pricey for my taste. In any event me and my girl friend decided to get a room. The rooms are incredibly spacious and stylish. The bed was really comfortable and the sheets were clean and soft.Rooms: As I said the room we stayed in was huge and stylish and the bathroom looked like a walk in closet that's how big it was. Also I have to mention the bathroom was very clean and smelled good.Safety: Me and my girl friend felt very safe during our stay at fortune. Also it was quiet.Walkability: Hotel Fortune is within walking distance of the stores, restaurants and Bodega's. Also there is a nice park that is close by.”

“Bed was clean but the room was dusty never cleaned for years to have that much dust you can write ✍️ you name and it ...I have the video not pictures I'll post it on IG page hotelsaving21Mack11mediaWalkability: It's literally three or four blocks from mass transit in Long Island railroad”

“Upon checking in, I was kindly greeted by Fabian and Siara. I wasn’t expecting to stay in New York, but my flight got delayed. Their warm welcome and assistance to all my questions was very helpful. My room was super clean. After a mini hectic airport experience having this hotel encounter was just what I needed. Super grateful for their service! 5-star all the way! Also, ask Siara for reliable local car/transportation services - she knows a reputable driver - great pricing.”

“The newly renovated specialty room was nicer than I expected, the lobby was decorated to fit the holiday season and front desk was simple to deal with. I would recommend The Pines to anyone looking for a better experience for an affordable price.”

“I was there in 2008 2009 the room was VERY clean fresh sheets firm mattress I fell asleep for the whole short stay! Bathroom and shower very clean I would definitely go back there anytime.theres nobody getting high in the hallways like some REALLY bad places that have short stays I highly recommend this place alot!!5 stars for cleanliness and bathroom A+ mattress and pillows A+ too..really 5 stars all around! I'm sorry to see bad reviews but in 2008,2009 this place was very nice must be new management that let the place go..

Noteworthy details: Like u said beds fresh CLEAN sheets,mattress is firm bathroom A+ short stay back then was 90 or 100 for short stay probably 120 now,worth it see for yaself you will agree!”

“Very welcoming ? staff explaining the facilities and other convenience info.Rooms are being renovated. Bathrooms need updating. lounge comfortable and welcoming. Safe area. Good stop over for JFK .4 star ? from”

“We had a lovely room. Unfortunately the ocean view was obstructed by scaffolding. But, the service was impeccable. Sharon assisted us by keeping our bags after check out time so we could experience another day walking the lovely boardwalk. Morning with a coffee pot on the table was greatly appreciatedWalkability: We were pleasantly surprised this hotel was on the beach with a lovely boardwalk.Food & drinks: The mezzanine bar/lounge served a delicious meal. I had the meatballs and my husband had a very flavorful ribeye. Christian was an excellent bartender/server.”
