Wythe Hotel

"A five-year restoration and renovation project transformed a factory on the Williamsburg waterfront, originally built in 1901, into the stylish but laid-back Wythe Hotel—Williamsburg’s first hotel when it opened in 2012. This 69-room property has a distinct Brooklyn stamp, from the Brooklyn-made wallpaper to the Brooklyn-sourced minibar. The little details here stand out, including concrete floors with under-floor heating and the use of reclaimed wood (from the former factory) in the ceilings. The spacious lofts are particularly noteworthy for their floor-to-ceiling views of the Manhattan skyline and standalone pedestal tubs. Visitors and New Yorkers mingle over cocktails at the rooftop Bar Blondeau as well as at the critically acclaimed ground-floor brasserie, Le Crocodile, where dishes include escargot with parsley and fennel and duck breast with figs and roquette." - Jennifer Flowers

"The Wythe Hotel defines Williamsburg style for many—a former industrial building given a hipster makeover with exposed-brick walls, factory windows, concrete floors, and plenty of reclaimed wood. The 6th floor Bar Blondeau, which serves French plates and natural wines, offers killer river views of Manhattan. The restaurant, Le Crocodile, has earned raves for its bold brasserie fare. If you're choosing to stay in Williamsburg, you probably want an industrial-chic vibe, and the Wythe delivers."

"As you stroll through North Williamsburg, you can't miss industrial-chic boutique hotel the Wythe—it stands out on the corner of North 11th Street and Wythe Avenue on the waterfront, with its retro, cherry red glowing letters, vertically spelling out “hotel” on the former factory's brick facade."
