Overall Ratings & Reviews The Industrialist Hotel Gowanus Brooklyn, Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy

The vibes of this place were immaculate! The room was small but I didn’t mind. The hotel was very clean and quiet. They do not offer a lot of amenities but since I was only there for two nights, it was fine. Definitely in a great location, there were plenty of restaurants and shopping places within walking distance. I would stay here again.

I’m not impressed

It is a good location right next to Park Slope and near the subway. The condition of the rooms could be better looked after and more attention to detail. It was difficult to use the sink in the bathroom due to the shelf just above it.

We stayed here for two nights and we loved it. There were minor things that could be considered annoying such as the spout being too long for the actual sink in the restroom but it was nothing that would keep me from rebooking. We were able to come and go as we pleased. It was pretty clean and quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

M/a

The property is in a great location for accessing New York City. The room was reasonable size for New York and comfortable. My two complaints would be 1. There is no accessible restroom if you arrive prior to check-in. 2. Billing: I prepaid for my room and was charged the full amount again when I checked in again when I was checked out. Have been told it will be five business days before I can have a refund of my $3500.

It felt a bit worn down. The sink was oddly placed and led to a lot of water dripping on the floor when washing hands or face. Overall ok, but wouldn't choose to stay there again.

The hotel was beautiful and clean and comfirtable, but the most important thing was the people. All the staff were amazing, super kind and helpful. That made my stay all the more unforgettable!

Nice and sjmple

The room was cozy and clean. The staff were incredible! There was just a few issues with the key code system malfunctioning that left us trapped outside for a few hours late at night. Otherwise my review would be higher.

Loved my stay at The Sonder. The hotel is great, comfy, and close to everything

The staff was great but the room was very small.

I loved the location. There was a subway stop directly across the street, and everything in Park Slope was within a short walking distance. The room was small but comfortable enough. I liked the no-frills vibe.

My husband and I stayed for 3 nights (April 10–12, 2025), and overall, we had a pleasant experience. Check-in was smooth with easy access to the building and our room via app and door codes. The staff was young, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. The room itself was a bit on the smaller side and could benefit from more storage—especially in the bathroom. A small ledge or shelf inside the shower for items like loofahs and face wash would be a great addition. The sink is also quite compact, and the ledge above it sticks out far enough that you might bump your head while brushing your teeth. On the bright side, the bedding was incredibly comfortable, and the linens felt high quality. We especially appreciated the full-length mirror and the large TV with access to personal streaming services. While there’s no mini fridge in the room, there is a microwave and a water fountain available in the lobby for shared use. Overall, it was a stylish and convenient stay with a few minor design quirks—4 out of 5 stars.

The property was dirty, and no room services unless you pay for it USD 35.

Good and very convenient location. It was good for a very low-maintenance stay, if you don’t require any immediate support it will get the job done. I liked that you can be very self-sufficient which is how I like to travel. The room was small, no coffee table or place to sit aside from the bed, but okay if you just need a place to sleep. Good that it had a hair dryer and iron small ironing board which is important especially for those in the city to work. Overall I will stay there again especially for how close it is to the subway stop.

Good stay!

We had a great stay at Sonder. The location is great and the room has all the essential amenities including an iron and really good coffee! The room is just perfect, especially in terms of the price. The staff was also extremely responsive and friendly. 10/10 experience, Would come back and recommend!

Small room (typical in NYC), but wow, what a nice city skyline view, and a private balcony. The mattress was too firm for our taste, but everything was clean and the hotel staff were friendly. Great location in Brooklyn's Park Slope.

Great location and good enough rooms. The bathroom was not perfectly clean, and the nice coffee maker was as lacking both coffee and anything to drink out of.
