Planning a trip to New York City? Manhattan isn’t the only borough worth visiting—consider the smattering of Brooklyn hotels across the river. While you may be amazed by the glitz and glamor of Broadway, Times Square, and Central Park, straying away from the hustle and bustle of Midtown Manhattan will help you get a better feel of the real New York and live like New Yorkers do. Brooklyn is home to some incredible neighborhoods, delicious food, amazing nightlife, gorgeous parks, and of course, spectacular hotels. Thanks to New York’s widespread public transportation, if needed, you can still easily get to Manhattan, Queens, and the Bronx without too much fanfare. Whether you’re hoping to walk the cobblestone streets of Dumbo or explore the artsy enclave of Bushwick, these Brooklyn hotels are the perfect home base for you.
Every hotel review on this list has been written by a Condé Nast Traveler journalist who knows the destination and has visited that property.
