The hype
Guests are obsessed with the design and the views, calling it the most Instagrammable hotel in NYC.
1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge
$450-850+/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want the absolute best view of the Manhattan skyline from your bed and don't mind paying a premium for the 'Brooklyn cool' scene.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Unrivaled floor-to-ceiling views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan skyline
- The rooftop pool and bar are a legitimate NYC social scene
- Eco-luxury design that actually feels warm, not sterile (reclaimed wood, living walls)
Kurzfassung: A stunningly designed eco-hotel where you pay for the view and the vibe, but might lose sleep over the rooftop bass and the glass-box bathroom privacy.
Bewertet von @ellen.barron: Checking into this room for my last night in NYC was the best decision. The view of the skyline and Statue of Liberty from bed is something I'll never forget. It feels super luxe but earthy—honestly, I didn't want to leave.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
Service can feel pretentious and 'too cool for school,' with long waits for elevators and a chaotic lobby during peak times.
- You are an influencer or creative who values aesthetics over square footage
- You want to be in the center of the DUMBO action
- You don't mind a 'lively' atmosphere and crowded common areas
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some reports of 'missed spots' and dust in hard-to-reach corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Stone and slate finishes hide grime well, but grout lines in older rooms are showing wear.
- Maintenance: High traffic means some scuffs on the reclaimed wood and worn rugs, but nothing functional is usually broken.
- Linens & towels: Organic cotton sheets are soft but can feel 'rustic' (wrinkled) rather than crisp white hotel standard.
- Odors & scents: Signature 'Nature' scent (cedar/vetiver) is pumped everywhere; it's lovely unless you have perfume sensitivities.

FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is the pool open to the public?
Technically yes, via the 'Sky Swim Lounge' table service which starts at ~$800. Otherwise, it's guest-only with reservations.
Can I walk to Manhattan?
Yes, the hotel is literally next to the Brooklyn Bridge pedestrian entrance. It's a 20-30 minute scenic walk across.
Is it kid-friendly?
Surprisingly yes, they have a 'Seedlings' program and the park is right there, but the rooms are tight for families.
Does the subway stop nearby?
Not really. The closest stops (High St or York St) are a 10-15 minute walk uphill. The ferry at DUMBO/Fulton Slip is much closer.
How is the wifi?
Fast and reliable, included in the facility fee.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, very pet-friendly with no fee (unless deep cleaning is needed). They even provide beds and bowls.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast and walk to Butler or Almondine for better pastries and coffee at a third of the price.
- ✨
The 'filtered water tap' in the room is cool, but some guests complain about the taste—bring a bottle just in case.
- ✨
Use the ferry (NYC Ferry) to get to Wall Street or Midtown; the dock is 2 minutes away and it's the most scenic commute in the city.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The bathroom privacy is non-existent; many showers are glass boxes visible from the bed.
💡You have to reserve a 2.5-hour slot to use the pool, and it gets fully booked fast.
💡The elevators can be a nightmare on weekends with rooftop crowds trying to crash the party.
💡The windows in some rooms only crack open a few inches, so don't expect a breeze.
💡The 'park view' on lower floors is often just a view of a tree trunk or the walking path.
