My brother and I stayed at this hotel for six nights just under a week ago. I understand that hotels in New York are ridiculously expensive, so was prepared for this hotel to be basic, but Pan Am exceeded my expectations for how scummy it was. The location is good for the metro, being only around half a mile away,... More

I have travelled Europe .Asia and now North America.And with hand on my heart i can honestly say this is the dirtiest premises i have ever stayed at .Yes its an old Hotel and really only suited for backpackers.But that does not excuse the dirt.My room was on the first floor and we arrived very late tired from a long...

My friends recommended this hotel, because it has free pickup from the airport (JFK or LGA) and because it has two tour companies pick up and drop off tourists for a day tour of New York City. Convenient, if you only have a weekend in the city, like we did, and it did not disappoint. It is an old building,... More

The room itself was passable and the rate was reasonable for New york standards no laundry bag was provided . Could have done without the early morning wake up call with loud music coming from a club down the street . There was a ratling noise that sounded like a jackhammer coming from the elevator behind the room it took... More

I had a good time on PanAm. The room was confortable and clean, had a LCD TV and good space. The staff also was nice. For me, the more convenient things about this hotel are it's price and location. The last one, especially, is very good: in a quiet neighborhood, near the subway (four blocks, like a 5-10 min walk)... More

I was impressed with the range of shopping and restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. There's a large mall with a range of stores as well as smaller stores and services. Also discount shopping at Target and Marshall's and others is available. Access to the subway within walking distance puts all of NYC at near range. It's only 15... More

A 2 night stay for friends during a short visit to the nyc area. Hotel was plain and simple. 2 stars, not three would describe it. Beds were ok. No coffee makers in room although there was a simple cafe in lobby. The area around the hotel is not the place to "stroll" after dark

The hotel is pretty decent for the money, clean rooms (at least, ours certainly was), very helpful staff, our room was very quiet despite the fact that the hotel is right on Queens Boulevard. Didn't have any of the problems that other travelers described. We particularly enjoyed a tour of Manhattan recommended by the concierge (I forget the name of... More

I recently stayed at the Pan American Hotel in Queens, and I have got to say I was disappointed. To begin with the outside of this hotel is dirty which was a harbinger for what was to come. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful with directions to different locations however, obviously this was a cover up for the nasty... More
