The Aloft in Brooklyn is a more up to date hotel then its next door neighbour, Sheraton Brooklyn. The hotel is what you would expect from an Aloft and there is nothing special about this hotel. The only complaint I have is the air conditioner. It is very loud. For this reason alone I would not stay here in the future.
If you are a lounge person do not expect that here. As a Marriott rewards member I get a breakfast voucher limited to their cafe style restaurant.
For the tourist or as a reward booking, at 25,000 points per night this hotel is not the greatest value when you can stay at the Marriott New York at Brooklyn Bridge (if you are in Brooklyn) or any of the other amazing hotels in New York City. I would suggest booking elsewhere to get more value.
Overall it’s a simple, clean with a modern twist. For the business traveller I would not recommend this hotel. There are two many inconveniences that you have to put up with. For similar costs you can stay next door at the Sheraton or near by at the Marriott Brooklyn Bridge.
The Great:
- Up to date decor
- Clean rooms that are pretty spacious
- Friendly staff
- Internet was fast
- Location in Brooklyn is great with easy access to the subway, etc.
The Okay:
- Lobby is small and crowded
- The bar is small
- Not a whole lot of seating
Considerations:
- No lounge (expected)
- No pool
- Extremely loud A/C
