This hotel is a perfect place to stay when visiting NYC. It is extremely clean and comfortable. If you think you need to stay “in the middle of everything” like Times Square, you’re wrong. Easy access to the subway and a great breakfast are huge benefits for The LIC Hotel. You get home from a busy day in Manhattan, and it’s like a small, quiet town. Enjoy a (take your own) drink and snacks on the rooftop lounge area and enjoy the breathtaking view of the upper east side. I stay here every time I’m in New York.

Hotel was perfect for a trip to the US Open since it was close to the Subway Line #7 which goes straight to the Tennis center. Room & bathroom a little small, but still had enough space for us to put our stuff. Staff was very nice & courteous. NY skyline view from the roof was pretty cool. Breakfast was a pleasant surprise as good as it was with a good variety of options. Will definitely consider staying again next year.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
If I could give zero stars, I would. During our stay on July 17, 2025, my husband suffered a dangerous fall in his hotel room due to extreme condensation caused by a standard 20-minute shower. With the bathroom fan running and door slightly ajar, the entire room — floors, walls, furniture, and electronics — was drenched in moisture. The floor became so slick that my husband slipped and fell on his back. To make matters worse, his MacBook Pro— which was open and operating at the time — was ruined by the water damage, rendering it completely inoperable. When we reported this incident at the front desk and directly to management, the response was appalling. Staff openly acknowledged that this level of condensation is “known to occur in guest rooms” and that floors can become dangerously slippery. Their “solution”? Guests should supposedly open windows, crank up the AC, or limit showers to five minutes — none of which is written anywhere in hotel policies or guest instructions. Despite acknowledging the issue, management refused to accept responsibility for either my husband’s injuries or the destruction of his property. We followed up in writing — twice — with detailed documentation and even set a clear deadline for response. The hotel has not had the decency to reply. Complete silence. This hotel not only provides unsafe accommodations but also displays a shocking lack of accountability and basic professionalism. Guests should not have to risk

The twin beds are not stable, the hotel requires that all guest in the one room must go to breakfast together, which I think it was a strange requirement. Since I did not know it, I was not permitted to eat breakfast because my husband ate before I come down to eat.

The staff were excellent and friendly. The included breakfast was good, basic options like eggs and sausage and hash browns. Also bread options like bagels and pancakes and toast etc. The mattress was firm, but comfortable. The room and neighborhood is quiet and safe. MTA subway/train station was very close by. I recommend this hotel, and if I'm in LIC again I'd probably stay here again.

Great stay!

This is a great little hotel in Long Island City. It’s easy to find, is a short one block walk to the Subway (and a quick 10-15min ride to Manhattan), is in walking distance to both Target and Trader Joe’s, and is a 20-30min ride from La Guardia. The room was clean and decently modern, housekeeping came daily, and breakfast was good typical hotel fare. It was also a decently safe area. They also held our luggage the day we checked out so we didn’t have to lug it around the city before our flight! The view from the rooftop is great too. The only drawbacks were the beds weren’t super comfortable and it was a bit loud outside our window. But overall, great hotel, I would stay there again.
