Can someone tell me how to get to my hotel from JFK airport?

I'll be arriving at JFK airport and need to get to 122 E 28th St, New York, NY 10016. I want to take the subway, is that possible? If so, how do I do it?Can someone tell me how to get to my hotel from JFK airport?
The A goes right through East New York, not exactly among the nicest spots of our city. Take the E; it runs express, and it's closer to where you need to go, anyway.





AirTrain to Jamaica. $5.





At Jamaica, get a Manhattan-bound E subway, $2. Take it to Lexington Avenue. From there, get a downtown 6 subway (free transfer).





Get off at 28th Street. Exit the station, and find your hotel. It's between Park and Lexington Avenues.

If you are at JFK, follow the signs outside to ';Air Train'; (Train to the Plane) when you get to the station you will not need to pay just yet. Get on the train that goes to ';Howard Beach Station'; It will only be a few stops. When you get to Howard Beach, you will walk to the clerk area and pay for the ride there. It's about $5.00 and you will also buy a metro pass ($2.00) for the subway train downstairs. There are customer service clerks standing around to assist customers with questions. Make sure to take the Manhattan bound ';A'; train. Your ride will be about 30-40 minutes. You get off at {Fulton street - Broadway Nassau Street} They will announce it on the pa system. When you get off, follow signs leading you to the 4 5 6 trains. Go upstairs and just follow the signs. Do Not go outside. Stay inside station. Usually the 4 or 5 come frequently and you can board the ';Uptown'; 4 or 5 and get off at 14 street and change trains to the uptown 6 train to 28 street. You can also wait for the local 6 train at Fulton street however the station is very crowded and hot there. when you get out of station, you might be better off asking where 122 East 28 st is because you can get overwhelmed with the cars %26amp; people. Otherwise follow the street to 28 street and then the address 122. You will already be on the ';East side'; and only a few blocks away from train station. Good luck.
You can take the subway--- its a major pain in the butt if you are not used to it. What you do is take the Air Train out to Howard beach station. And then consult the subway map to see which line would take you closest to where you want to be. Only costs about 7$, but can take a long time and can be a real pain with luggage.





I might advise just 2 other options. Number 1, take the Airport express bus to Penn Station and just hop a subway stop or 2 from there. That would cost about 15$ total.





The other option is to take a cab. Its more expensive at 45$, but much easier. If you are knew to the city and coming in tired from a flight, its may be worth it to pay the extra money.
Air Train from JFK to Jamaica Station. E (Blue) Subway to Lexington Ave/53st. Transfer there to 6 (green) Southbound to 28th Street. Take left hand exit Station cross Park Ave. Park South Hotel is in the middle of the Block on the South side of the Street.





EDIT: If you take Airtrain to Howard Beach you will have a much longer subway ride -- more twice as many stops.
