The staff working the desk was so helpful, and had the best recommendations for food within walking distance! The room was small and cute, with a huge window that made it feel much bigger. With the kithenette it had all of the amenities that we needed, and more! The rooftop restaurant has an incredible view of the whole city! Will definitely stay here again if we plan another trip to New York!

Our stay at the Penny was amazing! Super cute aesthetic with phenomenal ambience and a great rooftop bar (the drinks are SO good)/restaurant with STELLAR views of the city. The location is everything and our room was lovely. The pour over coffee in our room served a perfect cup. My one critique would be that we had called front desk a few times for some small complimentary items to restock in our room but we didn’t receive them, & one of the QR codes for room service wasn’t working but honestly pretty minor of a nitpick. if you speak to staff in person they’re super accommodating and sweet! This is definitely our go-to hotel whenever we come back to Brooklyn!!

The hotel is very conveniently located to restaurants, shops and McCarren Park in Williamsburg. We stayed over a weekend to run the Brooklyn Half Marathon. The night before the race the music was so loud from the bar on the 11th floor it was very difficult to sleep in a room on the 3rd floor. The sound came through the vents in the bathroom. Room was small as expected but nice and cleaning staff were great. After the race I received a text inviting us to a special brunch on the 11th floor restaurant for runners offering a gift basket. When we arrived we were told the special event was for a local running club only (not sure why they texted me then). The view was amazing but we were told we could not sit outside due to the event for runners. We were nearly alone in the restaurant but it took 20 minutes to get our order which left out the avacado in the avocado toast and our order of pancakes. The “eggs any style” ordered over easy were sunny side up and not fully cooked. When delivered, there was only one pancake ($17) and we were told the word “pancakes” plural on the menu was a typo. They removed the $17 charge. The EINico is probably a great place to party but not for food and if you need to sleep, a weekend stay isn’t a good option.

They always take great care of me at the Penny, to the point this has become my Brooklyn hotel where I always stay. You can't find a nicer place in the 5 boroughs for this price.

Loved my brief stay there and plan to go back. I loved my room, which was very attractive, made great use of space, and had every extra I could have asked for - robe, steamer, lotion (which a nearby, much more expensive hotel doesn't supply). The people I came in contact with were all wonderful. The price was very reasonable.
