Hotels in Kew Gardens

Kew Gardens is a neighborhood in the New York borough of Queens and is named after the historic royal botanic gardens in London, United Kingdom. The borough is notable because of its small-town feel. Beloved hotspots in Kew Gardens include Forest Park, and Kew Gardens Cinemas, a six-screen independent theater. The neighborhoods of Forest Hills and Jackson Heights are only a couple subway stops away and popular to go out for dinner among the residents of Kew Gardens.

Kew Gardens makes for a great location in New York City, be it for locals or tourists. This is partly thanks to its proximity to Midtown, Manhattan and international airports LaGuardia and John F. Kennedy. You can easily take the subway or follow the expressway to reach Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the most important New York City highlights. At the same time, you will experience another side of New York City. Instead of the hectic, flashy, and lively tourist hotspots, you will be surrounded by a residential area, where you can go for walks in the park and watch a movie with your next door neighbors in the cinema.
