Our favorite hotel in Brooklyn/Williamsburg. We have stayed here many times and have been able to count on consistent 5-star quality service and cleanliness. The area is walkable with restaurants, shopping and subway stations nearby.

Enjoyable stay. A couple suggestions for the room - offer kleenex; regular creamer rather than just hazel nut; instructions for lights-housekeeping apparently turned on the light over the sink which was helpful but then we couldn’t get it to go off; finally succeeded but were unable to leave a light on in the bathroom at night - they all went off. Tried calling the desk Sunday evening to ask assistance on the lights, but got no answer. Very confusing lighting system. Also realized I didn’t get a receipt and had to call to find out there was a $150 deposit that would be reimbursed, which is fine, but we were not informed and nothing in writing.

10 of 10, I had a really nice stay. One thing that can be improved is to allow contact less payments with phone.

I split my trip into two parts—half in Manhattan and the other half in Williamsburg to be closer to friends. Choosing The Penny was a fantastic decision! The location is super convenient, and the tech-savvy amenities make everything so easy. It feels less like a hotel and more like you're staying in a cozy studio apartment. For longer stays, it’s even better: the little fridge and microwave are perfect touches since most hotels don’t offer those. Plus, they provide utensils and have great seating arrangements. The staff is amazing, and I truly enjoyed my stay. Can’t wait to come back soon!

I loved my stay at The Penny! The hotel has a unique flair that I appreciate and enjoy when traveling. The staff was friendly and helpful at all times. The location to public transportation, parks, restaurants and shopping is excellent. The only 5 star I didn’t give was on location. That is only because the block has some vacant buildings and a bit unkempt but I never felt unsafe.

We stayed here while visiting our daughter in Williamsburg. The location was perfect between 2 stops on the L. It was easy to get to Manhattan for shows The hotel was very clean and although the room wasn't large, it was efficiently designed, so we had everything we needed. The rooftop deck was lovely! I would stay here again.

5.0 / 10.0
The hotel was all that we hoped. The staff was welcoming, bright clean atmosphere. I loved the view out my window over the bed, a nice “wild” garden with hydrangeas and anemone flowers blooming. The layout of the small room was very clever and well throughout making it feel roomy. Everything you can need is there, including an umbrella. The location was convenient to the “G” subway line, though we found it is temporarily closed for most of the southern route. There we nice little cafes within a short walk. Pleasant stay!

I like how close it was to transportation. Entertainment on the TV was good and wifi. Check-in was simple and quick. Staff seemed but more helpful to other guests though. It wasn’t a very clean room either. There was a stain in the comforter, wondering it it was even changed or washed. I really really dislike the smell of the soap. Please change that.

Front desk was very accommodating. I appreciated the small touches throughout the room and really felt it was a steal for the affordable price! Would definitely stay here again.

Loved our stay here, between the fun, funky decor, the simple check-in/check-out, and the pour-over coffee, everything was perfect. Finding free street parking was easy, and the location was very convenient, being only a short walk to the subway. The room was clean and very spacious compared to many other NYC hotels we have stayed at. Will definitely stay here again!

Oh the Penny! You’ve completely won me over. I stumbled upon this new chic boutique hotel for a last minute trip to my former city. The property is new and clean. While the rooftop is absolutely beautiful! What a great experience & I’ll definitely see you my next visit.

Our room was clean and very sleek with lots of nice little touches like real cutlery, a bath robe and a steamer. We didn’t get a chance to eat in the rooftop restaurant but we did pop up to check it out. The view is amazing.

The staff is so helpful and friendly. I stayed in a queen room. It was only me in the room, so it was fine. If my husband would have been there, it would have been tight. The restaurant upstairs is great!
