The Hoxton Williamsburg

I stayed in Hoxton Williamsburg for one night during my layover. I chose it because I liked going to the Hoxton in Southwark London haha. The overall experience was ok. The common area is beautiful and comfortable. Free coffee and tea by reception. Super nice decor. There’s a coffee shop and bar in the lobby too with very nice aesthetics. The room was quite small - which wasn’t a big problem for me since I didn’t really need to unpack. The furnitures were SUPER nice and elegant. I loved the colour scheme of mg room - very calming. The view from my window was very nice. I was on the fifth floor, just enough to see the skyline. Amazing both during the day or at night. The door to the shower is a bit awkward as it opens outward. And water gets out quite easily. I took one shower and the bathroom floor became quite slippery afterwards. I also never got my breakfast. There was a breakfast bag provided where you can indicate for how many people and what time you would like to have it. I indicated that I would like it at 7am. I waited from 7-9 am, nothing ever arrived… Afterwards I had to go catch my flight. I’m just very confused by how the breakfast system works. I did see breakfast provided for other rooms.

We had a nice stay at the Hoxton. Staff was friendly, the room was clean and cleverly set up for such a small room. My only complaint are the pillows- too mushy! But that’s personal preference. It was quiet in the room despite how close rooms are and despite the bustling bar and lobby area. Elevators were fast, check in and out was efficient and when we needed toothpaste or extra towels we were quickly helped out.

Small, but very functional, clean room with great views

The AC is always in 63 at the Lobby and the music loud without any space for you to work or even talk. I don't recommend.

The room was a bit on the “cozy“ side regarding size but it was well appointed. There is a mini fridge with some provided milk for your coffee, a water pot to make tea/coffee, Bluetooth speaker, nice TV, big bed, clothes, steamer, and hairdryer in the room. The K’far cafe was excellent and I hear good things about the rooftop restaurant (Laser Wolf). The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are not spacious but still nice. I would definitely stay there again.

Convenient location. Music in cafe is a little too loud.

Fav hotel - 3rd stay in 3 months for work. Great vibe, great views, cosy, lovely chilled staff, perfect location

Great hotel space with good vibes and nice rooms. Very walkable to multiple transit options or to just explore Williamsburg. Would absolutely stay here again—don’t forget to snag a reservation for Laser Wolf (the rooftop restaurant) in advance of your trip, too. Great views and food.

Fab hotel with the best hummus. Rooms are tiny but...its New York.

Extremely clean, beautifully appointed and well located. The resident restaurants were delicious (although very busy and open to the public, so reservations absolutely needed). The rooms were quite small, especially with luggage, so it was a bit cramped. Also, the lobby seating areas were mostly filled with locals on laptops rather than guests. Probably suitable for individuals or younger couples looking for a great location in Williamsburg and spotless rooms. Maybe slightly more style over substance in terms of amenities for hotel guests.

The AC was out on our floor so we had a portable unit which was noisy and dripped water everywhere. Because the window wasn’t full closed the street noise from the rooftop club across the street was bonkers. We were offered another room, which was supposed to be ready by noon or 1pm at the latest. It was 2pm Before we got the room which messed up Our afternoon plans. The check in lady, while lovely, stated she would refund our first nights stay by way of compensation. That has not happened even though I’ve emailed twice to follow-up. I’ve stayed at this Hoxton and many others around the world and love the environment they typically create. I hope they can course correct.

A modern hotel, built within the past 10 years, the architecture and decorations are very nice; good vibe throughout the hotel. The location is excellent, convenient to interesting neighborhoods, shopping, restaurants, and public transportation, with nice views of Manhattan from the rooms on the west side of the hotel. Our major negative with the Hoxton is the size of the rooms. Most of the choices are described as 170 square feet (“cozy”), and while something like 10 by 17 (including bathroom and entry hall) might seem OK, the reality is something different. With a king size bed, the remaining space (area to walk, sit, stand or store luggage) was miniscule – four feet between the side of the bed and the window; three feet between the foot of the bed and a wall; around 18 inches along the side of the bed. Two big drawers under the bed offer good storage, but there is no useful furniture in the rooms – two tiny night tables, a small (useless) drop front desk, and a piece with a bar for about 8 or 10 hangers. The bathroom is similarly cramped. On the Hoxton website, you’ll see some attractive common areas, seating for the bar and a restaurant, but don’t count on being able to get a seat in any of these areas. Residents of the neighborhood seem to enjoy the free WiFi and air conditioning, and that didn’t leave much room for hotel guests. The price was OK, bumped up from what seemed to be the standard $249 weekday rate to $500 per night for the weekend.

Nice place and location

Excellent

Safe and convenient area with lots of food options and short train ride from Manhattan. Rooms could be bigger and shower didn’t drain very well + inconsistent water pressure and temperature.

Amazing views and great location

Lovely stay.

Great hotel for a stay in Wburg. The rooms are quite small and there not many amenities. However it is a nicely designed comfortable hotel and a great place to have a stay. The lobby and restaurants are fantastic and beautifully designed.

I enjoyed my stay at the Hoxton. Great location, not too far away from the city and there were a lot of good restaurant options nearby.
