Feather Factory Hotel

The room was exceptionally clean and the staff beyond friendly. But what sets this hotel apart is the incredible place for the great location, on the way to subway (number 7 and G are the closest) you literally find yourself in from of an amazing view of the Empire State Building. The location is unmatchable for the price, really. Two subway stops and you are in Manhattan, and quickly to Brooklyn as well. I was traveling alone (female) and I went to the hotel a few evenings alone from the subway and I felt safe. If you prefer, the city is obviously fully serviced by any possible car/cab service. Loved it!

A modestly priced hotel in what is basically an industrial area of Queens. Large room, fairly comfortable bed, good selection of toiletries an excellent choice at breakfast. A ten minute walk to the subway which will take you to mid-town Manhattan in about 15 minutes.

Feather Factory is my favorite hotel in New York! The location is fantastic — just a short walk to nearby subway stations, which makes getting into Manhattan quick and easy. It feels like you’re in the city without actually being in the middle of the city, which is a huge plus. The neighborhood is quieter and less hectic, but you still have great access to everything New York has to offer. The hotel itself is the definition of value for money: clean, comfortable, and affordable. The atmosphere is simple but welcoming, and the staff are always kind and helpful. It has everything you need for a relaxing stay at a great price. One thing to note is that the hotel is close to the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) tracks, so you may hear trains passing by. If you’re a very light sleeper, that could be an issue — though it personally didn’t bother me at all. Overall, it’s a wonderful place to stay, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting New York!

Feather Factory is a bit oit of the way of most things I'm traveling to do, but it's just across the tracks from LIC center, and it's incredibly affordable! I'm usually staying for late night events, and when I roll in at 3-4am, there's always somebody at the front desk! And the readily available street parking around the hotel is incredibly convenient.

The room was a good size with a huge, comfortable bed and all the essential furniture: a safe, hair dryer, bathroom essentials, towels, and a fridge. Although there was no wardrobe, there was enough space and hangers to store our clothes. The staff were lovely and generously gifted us breakfast for the entire stay—a thoughtful gesture, especially since there weren't many cafes or restaurants nearby. We used the subway daily, with several stations within a 10–11 minute walk. It took about 20 minutes to reach the city center. While the neighborhood didn’t feel particularly welcoming and I didn’t feel comfortable going out alone at night, we didn’t experience any issues. Overall, it was a decent stay and offered great value for money.
