Located within a historic Greenpoint hotel, this is not your usual homestay. But for those looking to stay in the low-key cool atmosphere of north Brooklyn, with the added convenience of a hotel concierge, it's a fantastic choice. A converted former factory, the hotel's designer has taken the time to create a bespoke interior for each of the rooms within the building. The open-plan living area gives off a welcoming vibe, with its beautiful hardwood floors, elegant mid-century furniture, and compact kitchen. There are antique mirrors lining the wall, specially commissioned artworks, and old factory finds that make the room feel more like someone's home than a hotel room. The cosy master bedroom is coated in warm blues that will lull you into a deep sleep in no time. If you want to branch out, you're just an eight-minute walk from the nearest Metro station and can be in lower Manhattan within twenty-five minutes, while the Greenpoint ferry terminal is also close by for the more scenic East River option.
