Plane Spotting New York La Guardia

Comfort Inn LaGuardia

Is situated across the road from the threshold of the Runway 04. The airport facing rooms face directly down the runway so all movements on this runway can be seen. The room is no good for photography, however the famous viewing park is only a 5 minute walk over the road from this hotel where excellent photographs can be taken (caution walking about at night-this area isnt great)

Rooms 314 and 316 have confirmed views down the runway.

Ibis Styles New York LaGuardia

Can be found abeam the Runway 31 end of LaGuardia. The hotel has 7 floors which means that high level floors get good views over Runway 31 and the Delta terminals. Movements off the cross runway can be seen in the distance and identified using a flight tracker. 

The hotel is cylindrical meaning that only a limited number of rooms have airport views, ask for an airport facing room on check in and you should hopefully be ok. 

Due to the number of obstructions, photography isnt really ideal from here but the spotting is good. It must be noted that construction work has commenced at the airport which may have an impact on the view from this hotel in the future (last update mid 2019)

Marriott LaGuardia Airport

Is located near to the Ibis above with similar views over Runway 31 and the terminal area. Great views can be had of Runway 31 and aircraft arriving and departing off the cross Runway can be seen in the distance. Flight tracking is needed for the cross runway, traffic on Runway 31 and the nearest rooms can be read off in daylight. 

The hotel is of great quality with an expensive price tag however the good views make up for this. The hotel allows you to book an airport facing room at the time of reservation (see the link below) which is another bonus. 

It must be noted that construction work has commenced at the airport which may have an impact on the view from this hotel in the future (last update mid 2019)

Aloft New York LaGuardia

No spotting reports from here yet however airport facing rooms appear to have very similar views to the Ibis Styles Hotel above-the Aloft is in the same area.

If you are looking to make your own travel arrangements please click on  Booking.com to be taken directly to the hotel information page where you can reserve your airport facing room.

The Aloft Hotel overlooks the Delta terminals and Runway 31. All LaGuardia photo credits to Tripadvisor-visit their site for excellent reviews on these hotels.
