Everything good you expect from a hotel!
Pros: The staff was helpful and nice, it was very clean with good amenities. Nice view from the 8th floor as a bonus
Cons: The bed was a bit hard and we found ourselves to always be a bit too warm with A/C not going low enough, but it wasn’t really annoying, small details!

Pros: the stuff was so kind during our stay, the gave us all the facilities needed (the only thing you would need is toothpaste). Breakfast was remarkable, a whole bunch of delicious food, good quality buffet. Last but not least, the hotel is located 20 mins from the city centre (times sq and central park) by metro . I would totally recommend it!

Would definitely recommend and come back!
Pros: I had a great stay at the LIC Plaza Hotel. The location was a huge plus — it’s in very close proximity to the subway, making it incredibly easy to get into Manhattan and around the city in general. The neighborhood itself felt like an up-and-coming area, which I really enjoyed; it was lively without being overwhelming. The hotel staff were excellent throughout my stay — friendly, professional, and always helpful. The hotel was mostly clean, well-maintained, and offered great value for the price. Rooms were comfortable (mattress a little hard), and it felt like a reliable, welcoming place to come back to after a long day in the city. Overall, a very solid experience and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for convenience, comfort, and a great NYC location just outside Manhattan.
Cons: The wallpaper started to come off Would’ve been nice to have a smart tv

I would recommend it 100% and it would definitely be in my first choices on a future trip.
Pros: We stayed at the LIC Plaza Hotel in early December 2025. We had chosen the hotel both for its affordable price and for its location. It was about a 5-minute walk from two subway stations where 6 different trains passed. Midtown Manhattan was only 15 minutes away. The neighborhood was very quiet and we did not have a single second of concern for our safety. Our room was comfortable and had a nice view of Manhattan. The breakfast was also a plus with lots of choices, although the paper plates and plastic cutlery were the only negative. The two elevators were very comfortable and we did not face a single day of overcrowding. The staff was polite in everything we asked them and they even kept our suitcases on the last day until the afternoon since our return flight was at 12pm
Cons: If I were to say anything negative, it would be the paper plates and plastic cutlery in the restaurant.

Great & clean bang for you big in convenient location.
Pros: Amazing location if you want to do a lot of sightseeing. Clean facilities. We had an amazing view from the 8th floor. They even had an airport shuttle with comparable price to a cap. Staff was always super helpful.
Cons: The breakfast could be better. Especially the coffee. We only ate there once and ate out otherwise

Good value for many, convenient location
Pros: Good location, in Queens, close to multiple subway lines. Just few stations away from downtown Manhattan. Friendly staff, room was clean and well maintained. Buffet breakfast is ok, maybe a bit repetitive choice of food, but quite good for a price range. In a new development in Long Island Plaza, just a block away, there are plenty of restaurants and food markets.
Cons: Plastic flatware and paper dinnerware, but it was same last year in another hotel - so it’s not something strange these days.
