This is a thread to post where you are right now.

If you couldn't read the title and decided to just click it.



For easy reference, here’s Wikipedia’s list of airport codes. The list is too long for one article, so you have to click on the letter that the code begins with to get a list of airports that start with that letter.

TWA Hotel
By far the most absurdly priced hotel I've stayed at in a long time.
Standard room was tiny - I think if I had a standard suitcase I wouldn't have had space to walk in  ::)
No coffee maker, no room service, no minibar etc

Room cost was $667 after tax. It's my company paying so a little bit easier to swallow.

Can't beat the location tbh. I landed at 11:05p at T4 and I think I was in the room less than half hour later. If I had a bit more id taken a Uber to a chain hotel

It's free if you sleep on the couches in the lounge

You may get a dozen couples to be looking at you though

I would say that I'm past that stage in my life. But TBH I've never had such a stage in my life  ;D

I've been on the booking page multiple times and couldn't pull the trigger because of this.

No other hotels right near JFK? In ZRH there are now two hotels literally part of the airport and they are super convenient, but they are not overpriced. There are other hotels in the area less than a 3-4 minute drive/train/bus/tram ride away, so I guess that keeps the prices down, but nothing beats just waking up in the morning and walking over to check in.

Is it overpriced just because the location or because it being so unique with the entire theme and stuff?

Forgot about that. Same reason all housing is so expensive and impossible to find in the US. Of course, no MSM talk about that.

Same as every Hyatt, email and ask in advance.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
