3 "Express" Hotels to go by foot, subway, or train
I've been going to the US Open regularly and NYC for over 35 years! With input from my family in Queens plus tennis friends in NYC, here's our short list of hotels. You can cruise car-less on your next US Open visit.
US Open travelers will stay near the US Open, Downtown NYC, or a hybrid option.
If you are there in August, you may see us there during Fan Week! Welcome back to NYC 2022.

1) Go by foot: stay nearby LGA or Flushing
- Allows you to get some rest at the hotel during the middle of the day
- Use the "Show on Map" button at the top right.
- Plot a path on Google Maps to ensure it's less than a 1-mile walk
- Ideally, look for one that is near one of the bridges or a metro stop on the 7 train line
