The hype
Travelers love the vibe, the views, and the food, but consistently lament the shoebox-sized rooms.
The Hoxton Williamsburg
$230-470 / нощ
Запазете го, ако You want to be in the absolute epicenter of Williamsburg cool, don't mind a small room, and prioritize a buzzing lobby scene over silence.
Защо хората я обичат
- Laser Wolf on the roof is one of NYC's hardest tables to book (and guests get priority access)
- The 'Flexy Time' policy lets you check in/out whenever you want for free (if booked direct)
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with killer Manhattan skyline views in the upgraded rooms
Бързо резюме: A glorified dormitory for the well-heeled creative class where the lobby is a runway and the rooms are merely crash pads.
Преглеждано от @ginagoesto: I honestly didn't want to leave the lobby—it's such a vibe for getting work done. My room was cozy but had everything I needed, and that view of the city made waking up early totally worth it. It really feels like you're living in Brooklyn, not just visiting.

“I'd love a room on a high floor facing Manhattan if possible. I'm a light sleeper, so away from the elevators and any rooftop bar noise would be amazing.”
Често задавани въпроси и скрити съвети
Всичко, което наистина трябва да знаеш, преди да резервираш.
Is there a gym?
No. They offer a $30 day pass to Chalk Gym, which is a 5-minute walk away.
Is there a pool?
No pool on-site, despite the rooftop vibes.
How small are the rooms really?
Small. The 'Cosy' rooms are about 170 sq ft. The bed often touches three walls.
Can I get into Laser Wolf if I stay there?
It helps, but it's not guaranteed. Guests sometimes get priority or room service options, but booking ahead is safer.
Is it good for working?
Yes, the lobby is a massive co-working space by day, but it gets crowded and competitive for outlets.
Is breakfast included?
No. You can buy a 'breakfast bag' for $5 or eat at K'Far in the lobby (à la carte).
Съвети на инсайдъра
- ✨
The 'breakfast bag' ($5) is just a banana, OJ, and granola—skip it and go to a local bakery.
- ✨
Ask for a 'Hox Survival Guide' at check-in for curated local maps.
- ✨
If you arrive early without Flexy Time, they will store your bags, but the luggage room can get chaotic.
