These Are the 23 Best Four-Star Hotels in NYC - AFAR
"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
