FAIRFIELD INN & SUITES BY MARRIOTT
COURTYARD BY MARRIOTT
From JFK Airport
A taxi or rideshare will typically take around 20 minutes.
You can use the JFK Airtrain which will get you to Jamaica Center for $8.25 (the OMNY card will work here, but this fare won’t count towards the weekly cap). From there, catch the Q30 or Q31 bus on the corner of Sutphin Boulevard & Archer Avenue (adjacent to the Long Island Railroad building) to Utopia Parkway & Horace Harding Expressway (around 25 minutes). The bus will drop you off across the street from the hotels. Since that street happens to be the Long Island Expressway, you’ll have to walk under the overpass, cross the street, and make a right. The hotels will be two blocks away. The whole walk will take around 3 minutes.
From LaGuardia Airport
A taxi or rideshare will typically take less than 15 minutes.
You can get to HOPE for a single bus/subway fare by taking the free Q70 bus to the Jackson Heights-Roosevelt Avenue subway stop (around 10 minutes). From there, take the F train to 169th Street (less than 20 minutes). Exit onto Hillside Avenue. You can either take the Q17 at Hillside Avenue & 171st Street to Horace Harding Expressway & 185th Street (under 20 minutes) which is directly outside the hotels. Or you can transfer to the Q30 Q31 bus on Hillside Avenue & Homelawn Street to Utopia Parkway & Horace Harding Expressway (under 15 minutes). The bus will drop you off across the street from the hotels. Since that street happens to be the Long Island Expressway, you’ll have to walk under the overpass, cross the street, and make a right. The hotels will be two blocks away. The whole walk will take around 3 minutes.
Other Airports
A taxi or rideshare will typically take around an hour from Newark Liberty or Long Island MacArthur Airport.
Your trip from here will be longer with mass transit. From Newark Liberty Airport, take the Newark Airport Airtrain to Penn Station in Manhattan. From there, take the Long Island Railroad to Jamaica (around 20 minutes). If you’re coming from Long Island MacArthur Airport, simply get to the adjacent Ronkonkoma train station and take the Long Island Railroad to Jamaica. Head downstairs to street level and catch the Q30 or Q31 bus on the corner of Sutphin Boulevard & Archer Avenue (adjacent to the Long Island Railroad building). Take that to Utopia Parkway & Horace Harding Expressway (about 25 minutes). The bus will drop you off across the street from the hotels. Since that street happens to be the Long Island Expressway, you’ll have to walk under the overpass, cross the street, and make a right. The hotels will be two blocks away. The whole walk will take around 3 minutes.
Driving
From the Long Island Expressway, take Exit 25 (Utopia Parkway). Make a left on Utopia Parkway (a right if coming from points east), then a sharp right onto Booth Memorial Avenue (right before 58th Avenue). Turn right onto 185th Street and Horace Harding Expressway. The hotels will be on your right.
From HOPE
Take the Q46 bus from right outside Gate 4 to Union Turnpike & 188th Street and transfer to the Q17 bus (same corner but on the 188th Street side). Take that to Horace Harding Expressway & 185th Street which is directly outside the hotels. NOTE: These buses run around the clock but far less frequently after midnight.
You can also take the Q30 or Q31 bus from the southeastern corner of Union Turnpike & Utopia Parkway to Utopia Parkway & Horace Harding Expressway, but it will drop you off across the street from the hotels. Since that street happens to be the Long Island Expressway, you’ll have to walk under the overpass, cross the street, and make a right. The hotels will be two blocks away.
