The Spotlight on Casa Azul Hotel Blu-UBS Arena

Affordable Comfort Near the Action in Queens

Modern yet budget-friendly, Casa Azul Hotel Blu-UBS Arena offers a convenient base for music lovers heading to concerts across Queens and Long Island. Located just 1.4 miles from Belmont Park and close to major venues like UBS Arena and Citi Field, this 2-star hotel keeps things simple with clean, air-conditioned rooms, flat-screen TVs, and free WiFi. The vibe is low-key and accessible, with 24-hour reception and staff who speak both English and Spanish.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—and with UBS Arena just minutes away, you won’t have to worry about a long trek back after the encore. The hotel’s quiet neighborhood makes it a good spot for post-show relaxation, and with 24-hour front desk service, late arrivals are no problem. It’s also a quick ride from JFK Airport, making it ideal for out-of-town fans flying in for a big event.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends catching a show together
  • Solo travelers ticking off a bucket-list concert
  • Couples looking for a low-fuss weekend stay
  • Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space
  • Budget-conscious music fans who want comfort without the high price tag

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel is just a short walk or drive from local diners, late-night eateries, and casual takeout spots. Perfect for grabbing a bite after a show. You’ll also find plenty of nearby options delivering straight to your room, and with early check-out at 11am, you’ll still have time to grab breakfast nearby.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself doesn’t host live music or a bar, you’re situated near several local watering holes and lounges in Queens Village and Elmont. Plus, the proximity to UBS Arena means you can enjoy the main event and still be back in your room in minutes.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the hotel’s cleanliness, friendly staff, and affordability. The location near UBS Arena is a major highlight, especially for those attending concerts or sporting events. Many also mention the reliability of the WiFi and the convenience of the 24-hour front desk.

Areas for Improvement

This is a no-frills hotel, so don’t expect luxury amenities or a buzzing social scene. Some reviewers note the rooms are on the smaller side, and while there’s no on-site dining, the surrounding area has plenty to offer if you're willing to explore a bit.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers seeking a budget-friendly, well-located, and quiet spot to crash after a show, Casa Azul Hotel Blu-UBS Arena hits the right notes.

Dan, Cobourg, visiting UBS Arena Sun, 29 October 2023

Having the closest room to the front lobby was not good. Heard people coming in and out all night. Doors kept slamming throughout night. There was loud music coming from the building next door until 4am. The king size bed was nice even though there was not a fitted sheet for the mattress and the comforter was very old. Washroom and specifically the shower was very nice. Air conditioner barely worked and no working phone to call front desk.

Liked: Shower and bathroom is great.
Disliked: No fitted sheet on the mattress; was uncomfortable and air conditioner did not work.

I already mentioned above everything

Liked: No breakfast or even a coffee machine at room, unbearable smell of weeds or something inside hotel, TV remote not working, TV has only voice at some times, look like uncleaned bed sheets and pillow covers, first and last time to this hotel, sorry to say that, but you can do much better for this rate also.

Disgusting, Not suitable for Resting....

Liked: Absolutely nothing!
Disliked: Upon arrival, I was assigned a room that was clearly not cleaned to acceptable standards. The tub was visibly dirty, there were red speckles of debris on the comforter (which was supposed to be blue), the bed lights were non-functional, and the overall noise level was excessive. I immediately brought these concerns to the attention of the front desk. While the staff member I spoke with was accommodating and reassigned me to another room, the situation unfortunately worsened.The second room presented multiple hygiene concerns as well. Nearly all of the towels and washcloths were visibly dirty—only one was usable. The tub was again unclean, and the bed sheets and pillows also appeared used and unsanitary. I have attached photos of the linen and towels as evidence.Due to the unacceptable conditions, I could not comfortably use the bed and had no choice but to sleep upright in the desk chair, which I deemed the least hazardous option. This experience completely disrupted my ability to rest and recharge after a long day of work, defeating the entire purpose of my stay.It is deeply frustrating to encounter such conditions, especially at a property advertised as “Pleasant” on Booking.com. My experience was quite the opposite—unhygienic, stressful, and exhausting.
