Hotels Near 86th St Station, New York City

86th St Station sits on the R line. Two hotels lie within a twenty-minute walk — one of them less than five minutes from the station, close enough to manage with luggage.

The R train is your one connection here, so factor that into your travel planning before you book. It runs along 4th Avenue and will require a transfer if your itinerary takes you across multiple lines. That's a practical consideration, not a dealbreaker — but worth knowing before you arrive with luggage.

The Best Western Gregory Hotel sits closest to the station, and coffee is effectively waiting at the exit. Qahwah House Coffee is right there at street level, with a McDonald's one minute further and a Starbucks three minutes in the same direction. Travelers staying at the Gregory can handle breakfast without a second thought.

The Bay Ridge ApartHotel adds a useful option for longer stays, and its walking distance puts it in reach of all three coffee spots mentioned above. The cluster of cafés within a few minutes of the station means you won't need to hunt for a morning cup regardless of which property you choose.
