It’s a tough time to be a hotelier in Brooklyn, according to a Daily News article today. Nightly rates at the Sunset Park Days Inn are down from $199 last summer to $50 and rates at the Nu hotel have gone from as high as $647 to $167. At Hotel Le Bleu, the days of $429 rooms are long gone, and the $1,000 spa packages appear to be not far behind. We’re paying our bills — we’re not turning a profit or anything, said Todd Cahill, director of Le Bleu’s operations. This year is going to be very unstable. It’s going to be very challenging. Even the Downtown Marriott, prices are $60 lower than last year. “Brooklyn . . . is hurting pretty bad,” said hotel developer Sam Chang, who built and sold five Brooklyn hotels in recent years. “There are too many hotels.”

Brooklyn Hotels Hurting [Curbed]
I have just stayed here 4 nights as an intro to brooklyn while I find an apartment. It is clean comfortable and user friendly amazing location, and fun surprise in the bathroom. i wish the Nu hotel every success
When I heard this and saw that they failed to mention a source for their quote I was immediately skeptical. I called the hotel and spoke with a man named “Patel” who told me he most certainly was not renting rooms for $1500 a month. He was renting rooms for $99 a night, double the price quoted in the Daily News. I am tired of the News and The NY Post citing a source as “unidentified” when they make up a quote or an opinion just to beef up a story. This is lazy journalism and should not be tolerated. Not to mention, here it’s an outright lie. This is the only one in the area: 437 39th Street Brooklyn, NY 11232 (718) 853-4141
Looks like they willl be renting rooms by the hour soon. “Just so my girlfriend and I could rest for a few hours”
If you can find it in your heart to share your tiara, surely the bf can find it in his to share yours truly.
Snark- what can we say? Another brilliant hit. (Marry me and we can share my tiara- the one you….ahem…awarded me)
200k people in 11215, 11217, 11231, 11232
lots of weddings, birthdays, etc.
more tourists every day.
there are still more hotels at the corner of two interstates in illinois than there is in brownstone brooklyn.
decades after the zoning change of 1961 things are picking up. still a ways to go.
go bleu!!!
I just love Hotel le Doom
I just can’t wait to rent a room
I’m coming all the way from Sydney
Going next door to treat my kidney
Love the traffic, love the noise
Love the Staples and Pep Boys
Some might think they have some gall
To charge so much next to U-Haul
I say it’s cheap at twice the price
That view of Novo’s mighty nice
That Nu Hotel has roughly the same rates at the BH Marriott. I can’t see that working out well.
