Hotels Near Kew Gardens Station, New York City

Kew Gardens Station sits on the Babylon Branch, City Terminal Zone, Far Rockaway Branch, and Hempstead Branch lines. Two hotels lie within a twenty-minute walk.

Four Long Island Rail Road lines serve this station — the Babylon, Far Rockaway, and Hempstead branches, plus the City Terminal Zone — giving travelers solid options for moving across the LIRR network without a transfer. That range of service makes the station useful for riders connecting between branches or catching trains at different times of day.

Food is easy to find right outside the station. Dani's House of Pizza, Austin's Ale House, Homemade Taqueria Kew Gardens, and C Kew Gardens Restaurant Lounge Bar are all a one-minute walk, and Tu Casa is four minutes out. For coffee or a quick bite, Baker's Dozen Bagels and Roast & Co cafe are both steps away, with a 7-Eleven two minutes further.

The hotels are a longer walk than the restaurants. Best Western Jamaica Inn and Jets Motor Inn Hotel are each about fifteen minutes on foot, so travelers who want to eat before checking in can do so without backtracking — the dining options cluster near the station, while the accommodations sit further out.
