Perfect stay in Williamsburg at the Penny! I visit NYC often but never stay in hotels so this was a nice treat while visiting my daughter who lives in the area. Loved the Penny for its convenient location, just two blocks from the subway L/G lines and in a great neighborhood to explore on foot with restaurants and cafe's galore. Loved the design of this hotel (modern with pops of color) and a knockout rooftop restaurant/lounge (EL Nico). My Queen room was quiet and very spacious. Comfortable mattress and thoughtful touches like a yoga mat and block, delicious pour over coffee set up, colorful robes and nice toiletries. I was surprised at the total silence and slept soundly. Excellent and helpful staff gave me an early check in and held my bag for several hours after checkout. Had amazing meals at Have Meyer and Montesacro nearby. I'll be back!

I had a great stay at The Penny. My room was so comfortable, especially the bed. The young man at the front desk was so helpful and welcoming. We love the view from the rooftop restaurant. We sat out on the heated terrace and had some very tasty cocktails. The view up there is wonderful! Please be aware that The Penny is dog-friendly so you may meet some furry friends. I did hear one pup barking for his walk at 6am...but it only lasted a minute or 2.

This hotel gives quiet luxury without being pretentious. Hands down the cutest hotel i’ve ever stayed in, with the greatest staff (especially the night manager). Will be back whenever i’m in Brooklyn next! xo
