The Airport Hotels Our Editors Love Most

"After hours of my flight being delayed, and then delayed further, and then finally canceled at 11 p.m., I quickly called the TWA hotel and scored the last remaining room. The hotel is a quick five-minute Airtrain ride from all JFK airport terminals and is definitely worth checking out for the design alone (even if you just go for a look during a long layover or for a drink before your flight). The 512-room property incorporates part of the TWA Flight Center—which was beautifully designed in the early 1960s by the legendary Finnish architect Eero Saarinen (as well as two additional buildings, and it houses several restaurants and an aviation museum. In addition to being a very convenient place to spend the night after a missed connection or before a super early morning flight (the pickings are pretty slim right around the airport), it is a midcentury fever dream— you truly feel like you've gone back in time or onto the set of Catch Me If You Can. —Rebecca Misner, senior features editor" - Jamie Spain
