Holiday Inn JFK: Too Many Mother Uckers, Ucking With My Shi

Where: 144-02 135th Avenue [map], Jamaica, NY, United States, 11436

Editor's Note: HotelChatter tipster Jeff let us know about his experience at the Holiday Inn JFK, which included bebug claims and riot problems. Ouch. Do you think this is one of the hotels Flight of the Conchords played on last weeks episode. If you didn't see it, the show featured a bunch of airport hotels around New York City. Actually, if you didn't see it, start watching it.

In any event, take it away Jeff the tipster -- remember, it is just one person's opinion and all that.

The newest Doubletree on the block near JFK Airport in Long Island has just opened and with good news for business travelers: the place has complimentary WiFi.

Located at the crossroads of the Van Wyck Expressway and Belt Parkway and the entrance to JFK Airport, the place used to be a Radisson Hotel. But Doubletree revamped the guest rooms and public spaces with approximately $10 million worth of renovations.

Aside from WiFi, rooms and suites have 27" flat-screen televisions and the Sweet Dreams by Doubletree Sleep Experience bedding which is described as a "a luxurious linen package of a down-filled duvet wrapped in triple sheeting and a specially designed plush-top mattress and box spring system that ensures a great night's sleep."

Fashion Hotel In Stockholm

Go To The Hotel's Web Site Where: Sturegatan 10, Stockholm, Sweden, 11436

When the fashionistas are in Stockholm, our guess is they stay at the Lydmar.

The Lydmar has 62 individually designed rooms, and brings in new designers to re-feng shui the rooms on a regular basis. The rooms are available in x-small, small, medium, large, x-large, and XXL. Yeah, we guess this type of room key is so even Gap workers will understand what kind of room they are getting.

Rooms range from tiny rooms with iffy television remotes at ~£164, to ~£770 suites with giant flat screen tvs.

The Lydmar is located in the middle of Stockholm, perfect for exploring the city.  Remember, if you are going to the Lydmar on a budget, think Hudson sized rooms and Hudson style service.

On the other hand, if you are all monied up, Wallpaper* Navigator recommends room 419, or suite 551.
