Eero Saarinen’s landmark 1962 Trans World Airlines terminal is the heart of the only hotel at New York City's JFK Airport. An experiential hotel offering 512 midcentury modern rooms with runway or TWA views, the property embodies Sixties style. While a split flap board clicks in The Sunken Lounge, guests enjoy museum exhibits, restaurants — like the Paris Café by Jean-Georges — a rooftop infinity pool and observation deck, a gym, shops, event space and a winter ice skating rink. The off-grid hotel has its own power plant and a 1958 Lockheed Constellation “Connie” plane that serves cocktails!
