Where to stay in Corona
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Five thoroughfares carry the traffic. Hotels gather along Roosevelt Avenue and Northern Boulevard, the two busiest of them, and more beds sit west in Jackson Heights and north in East Elmhurst, a short way outside the neighborhood proper. The park side lies east.
Basing yourself near 108th Street or Junction Boulevard puts Flushing Meadows-Corona Park and the run on toward Flushing within easy reach.
