I booked Aloft Brooklyn as I had stayed in Sheraton next door before and found location good for travel into Manhattan (subway stop at end of street, Hoyt Street). Hotel was reasonably priced, bit less expensive than Manhattan but only 15 minutes away on subway. First impressions were good, bright lobby, with bar, seating area, pool table and snack bar,...

Stayed here for two nights. Great location. Rooms are small, but clean and efficient. Front desk staff, however, are rude and smug. Most act like they would rather be doing anything else beside treating guests with any politeness. Fire alarm went off at 3am one night. False alarm. They did give all guests free breakfast at Sheraton next door to... More

I stayed for one night in this hotel. On arrival all looked well. By 11pm the noise from the person next room became unbearable due to the connecting door. As I was on my own I called reception and asked to move rooms. A very unfriendly receptionist finally after 20 minutes of arguing gave me a new room. It was... More

I came to New York with my two best friends to celebrate my 30th birthday. We choose the Aloft because we wanted we wanted to stay in Brooklyn and this hotel seemed to have the best bathrooms for the best price. (three women need a lot of counter space) It's not cheap, but it's New York City! There was nothing... More

This hotel has nothing at all to do with the Hotel W chain which is owned by Sheraton, one of which adjoins this hotel. Do not be fooled into thinking there is something special going on here.

It's a horrible night to stay in Aloft on New Year's Eve. I traveled a long way to hotel and want to take a sleep, but guess what, there is a party next door. It's sooo noisy and I cannot even stay calm in the room. I asked to change a room, but was told the hotel was full that... More

Hi Josewan1, One thing about New Year's Eve and New York City is people love to party and they come from all over the world to be at the “Epicenter” of it all. I wish we had a spare room to move you to during your stay but we usually sell out weeks in advance along with 99% of the... More

We stayed here 3 nights over the Easter long-weekend and after a somewhat unhappy start, left quite content of our overall experience. After falling fast asleep on the first night, we were suddenly awoken around midnight by the guests in the neighboring room who we could hear partying through the connecting doors...

Stayed there with a friend on a quick NYC holiday - perfect hotel for Brooklyn and trips to Manhattan. We shared a twin room which by NYC standards is huge - great bathroom and overall room layout. Only downside is that the walls are very thin so you can hear your neighbours but outside of this perfect. Would most certainly... More

Aloft has a great contemporary atmosphere and the rooms are small but well designed. My only complaint is the sliding door to the bathroom is touchy so it SLAMS shut with a lot of noise. The location is convenient to the subway and the price much better than anything comparable in Manhattan. The walk from the subway back to the... More
