The Post has a story rounding up the various Brooklyn hotel openings this year and those planned for 2012, and the numbers are fairly impressive. The article notes that 838 hotel rooms in seven properties, including the Fairfield Inn on 3rd Avenue and Hotel Williamsburg, were added to the borough in 2011. Meanwhile, 523 more rooms in another five hotels are in the pipeline for next year. The planned openings include Sunset Park’s Hotel BPM, Wythe Hotel in Williamsburg and the long-stalled V3 at 237 Duffield Street in Downtown Brooklyn. There are now around 3,000 hotel rooms in Brooklyn, whereas there were only 1,200 in 2008.
