4 Best Hotels for U.S. Open

Best All-Around: New York LaGuardia Airport Marriott

See rates on TripAdvisor

The New York LaGuardia Airport Marriott has been a top choice for tennis players and TV crews covering the U.S. Open for years. The hotel is across the street from LaGuardia Airport and offers a quick shuttle to the U.S. Open and Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Expect quality rooms—maybe not as large as you would hope—but the service is superior and prices are cheaper than Manhattan. The hotel also has a fitness center with everything you need and a restaurant.

Closest: Holiday Inn LaGuardia Airport

See rates on TripAdvisor

The Holiday Inn is the only hotel that can actually bill itself as within walking distance from the U.S. Open (and Citi Field, which is adjacent to the tennis center). But the walk there involves crossing a major, urban thoroughfare so it's best to take a car from the hotel. 

The hotel is also very close to a subway station that makes easy for you to explore Manhattan once you've gotten your fill of tennis. It also has a restaurant and a bar with televisions so you can watch the tournament even on days when you don't have tickets.

Best Hotel for Flushing Meadows: Sheraton LaGuardia East

See rates on TripAdvisor

The Sheraton LaGuardia East is the best hotel in Chinatown, a fairly middle-class neighborhood in Flushing. The hotel caters to the Chinese and Korean business community. If you want to experience a real Queens neighborhood or eat dim sum before a day of tennis, this is the right place for you. There's excellent food—modern takes on Western and Eastern culinary classics—at the hotel's Deluge Restaurant.

It's also a quick train ride from the hotel to Flushing Meadows, meaning you'll be watching tennis before you know it.

Best Budget: La Quinta Inn Queens

See rates on TripAdvisor

This Sunnyside hotel isn't as posh as the others, but it's a convenient and clean choice in a safe neighborhood. The hotel splits the distance between the U.S. Open and Manhattan and it's only a 5-minute walk to the subway. 

Try the local Sunnyside restaurants for some of the best ethnic eats in Queens. Coffee can't get any fresher than at Baruir where it's roasted inside the small shop.

The motel is nothing special, but your time at the U.S. Open will be even more special for the money you save and the neighborhood you experience.
