Soho Lounge
Editorial Review
The Soho Lounge at JFK Terminal 4 is an average airport lounge (6/10 overall score) offering a convenient location but inconsistent experiences. Its strength lies in its proximity to many gates and the availability of showers, a welcome amenity for long-haul travelers. The lounge also boasts runway views from its windows, providing a nice visual distraction. However, crowding is a persistent problem, often leading to long queues and limited seating. Food quality is reported as variable, although alcoholic beverages are reliably available. To avoid the worst of the crowds, it is advisable to visit outside of peak arrival and departure times. The Soho Lounge best suits travelers who prioritize convenient location and shower access over a luxurious or consistently high-quality experience.
