Hotwire Hotel: 3.5 star hotel - Downtown Brooklyn

[RVD26]

Need help identifying this 3.5 star hotel in downtown Brooklyn.

Travel dates are 5/9/2016 to 5/12/2016.

$167/night.

 

FULL AMENITIES: Free breakfast, Free Internet, Pet friendly, Business center, Internet access, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower

 

There are one or two other hotels that caught my eye as well.  I don't know if I should list them now.

[thereuare]

Yes, please list them in this thread so that we can have a look at all 2-3 when we do the search for your trip.

 

Do you have reason to stay in Brooklyn for this trip or are you looking to save money vs. staying directly in Manhattan?

Yes, I am looking to save money and plus I stayed in Manhattan (Times Square) during my last trip.  While it was fine, I want to stay somewhere that is not so touristy.

 

I've never stayed in Brooklyn before.  Is there something wrong with staying there?

 

I will post the other hotels soon.

 

Any guess as to the first hotel I posted?

Do you plan on spending most of your time in Brooklyn or most exploring Manhattan? (if Brooklyn what will you do there for 3 days??)

If the latter i would recommend staying directly in Manhattan to avoid the commute every day.

 

There are certainly areas within Manhattan that are less touristy than Times Square (where it appears you stayed on your last trip)

 

Upper East Side and Upper West are both mostly residential... and Lower East Side is an upcoming area that is going thru a renaissance and not yet touristy (a bit more 'cutting edge', imo)

 

We'll have a look at Brooklyn if you'd like, but please make sure that this is where you really want to stay before we go down that path.

Brooklyn seems to have the best prices and I will likely spend a lot of time in Brooklyn this time.

I will spend one of the days in Manhattan and the rest of the time in Brooklyn.

Unless you can recommend some areas in Manhattan that have listings which are comparable in price to the ones I listed.

[thereuare]

We'll just stick with Brooklyn if you think you will be spending time there.

 

3.5* at $143/nite (looks like this one came down in price since your original post)

Complimentary Breakfast, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower, Pet Friendly

==> an upgrade of the Holiday Inn Express Brooklyn would be my guess here

 

3* at $164/nite

Boutique, Restaurant, Complimentary Breakfast, Smoke Free, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Free Parking, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower

==> Hotel Le Bleu

 

3.5-star at $173/night

==> no guess

So I decided to take the advice here and from a family member and look in the Upper West Side.

I found a 3-star hotel for $153/night.

 

FULL AMENITIES: Free breakfast, Free Internet, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Internet access, Kitchenette

 

On the Hotwire website, it says the last person got The Milburn Hotel.

[RVD26]

If it is The Milburn Hotel, it looks like it would be cheaper to book through Travelocity, Expedia or Hotels.com ($150/night).

Which of these sites would be the best (and cheapest with possible coupons) to book through?

If you are interested in the Milburn i believe it is this 3* Upper West Side hotel (confirm your dates on the landing page) for $160/nite with:

Business Center

Free Internet

Indoor or Outdoor Pool

Fitness Center

No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

 

If you for some reason decide to book thru an OTA, please use this Expedia link to begin your purchase as it supports the board and helps us to continue to operate as a free resource for everyone.

I booked through Expedia (which was cheaper) using the board links and got The Milburn.

Thanks for all of your help!
