Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites New York Queens/Queensboro Bridge is a 3-star hotel in Long Island City, Queens, positioned just a four-minute walk from the Queens Plaza subway station for quick access into Manhattan. The contemporary property offers colorful guest rooms equipped with free Wi-Fi, desks with ergonomic chairs, flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and minifridges, with select rooms featuring skyline views or pull-out sofas for extra sleeping space. Guests seeking more room can book the bright 1-bedroom suites, which add a separate living area and a second TV. On site, a relaxed pub, a fitness room, and a business center round out the amenity list, and a complimentary hot breakfast -- typically including scrambled eggs, sausage, waffles, pastries, and fruit -- is served each morning. From this Long Island City base, Manhattan's major attractions, including Grand Central Terminal, Rockefeller Center, Times Square, MoMA, and Central Park, are all roughly 2 to 4 miles away. The hotel suits travelers who want a quieter, more residential Queens setting with straightforward transit access to the heart of New York City.
Best for
This hotel suits leisure travelers and weekend visitors who want easy subway access to Manhattan's major sights while staying in a calmer, less congested part of the city, thanks to its four-minute walk to Queens Plaza station. It's also a reasonable option for business travelers needing a business center and fitness room without paying Midtown rates, and for families or small groups who can use the 1-bedroom suites with separate living areas and pull-out sofas.
Travel tips
Queens Plaza subway station is a four-minute walk away, making it easy to reach Grand Central Terminal, Times Square, and Rockefeller Center, all within roughly 3.5 to 4.3 miles. Guests have noted the option of easy street parking or valet parking, which is convenient for those arriving by car. Given a guest report of the hotel being closed for renovations at one point with limited advance notice, travelers should confirm current operating status directly with Marriott before finalizing plans.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the complimentary hot breakfast, citing a solid spread of eggs, sausage, waffles, pastries, and fruit, and many describe the location and staff service as strong points, with convenient street or valet parking options. Some reviewers note that standard rooms run on the smaller side, though this didn't diminish overall enjoyment for short getaways. A notable negative theme involves at least one guest reporting the hotel was closed for renovations without adequate advance communication from either the property or Marriott, suggesting travelers should verify booking status ahead of arrival. Overall sentiment leans positive, centered on breakfast quality, pleasant staff, and location convenience.
