A Williamsburg boutique hotel in a converted 1901 factory with skyline views across the East River. It houses Reynard restaurant and a rooftop bar.
The Wythe Hotel is at 80 Wythe Avenue, at North 11th Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York City, close to the East River waterfront. The hotel is a short walk from Domino Park, Bedford Avenue's shops and cafés, Brooklyn Brewery and the Williamsburg waterfront, with the Bedford Avenue L subway station about a 10 to 15 minute walk away and the North 6th Street ferry dock nearby for service to Manhattan. Manhattan's Lower East Side is about 20 minutes by transit.
The hotel occupies a converted early twentieth-century cooperage and factory building, dating from 1901, with exposed brick, timber beams and large industrial windows preserved in the interiors. A modern glass addition on top holds additional rooms with terraces facing the Manhattan skyline. Room categories include King rooms, Queen rooms and Loft Suites, many with views across the East River, and design details use reclaimed materials and locally made furnishings.
Dining and drinking are a major draw. Reynard is the hotel's restaurant, serving seasonal American dishes with produce-driven menus, and a rooftop bar offers skyline views and a lively evening scene. The property also has a small cinema screening films, which is unusual for a hotel of its size. Wifi is provided, though there is no spa or pool.
Service is informal and stylish, appealing to leisure travellers, creative professionals and couples who prefer Brooklyn's neighbourhood feel to Manhattan's crowded centre. Nightly rates usually run from about $300 to $600, depending on season and room type, with peaks in summer and around holidays. The rooftop bar can be busy at weekends, and the neighbourhood's nightlife can also affect the noise level in some rooms. Williamsburg's vintage shops, weekend Smorgasburg food market and Brooklyn Bowl music venue are all within a short ride or walk, giving guests plenty to do without crossing into Manhattan.
