NU Hotel

Stylish, Urban Comfort in the Heart of Brooklyn

NU Hotel brings a cool, modern vibe to Brooklyn’s BoCoCa neighborhood. Just steps from the subway and less than a mile from major venues like Barclays Center, this boutique hotel blends minimalist design with local flair. With free WiFi, a 24-hour gym, and sleek rooms featuring 32-inch flat-screen TVs and satellite music systems, it’s a smart and stylish base for concert-goers exploring NYC.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key, and NU Hotel delivers — it’s within walking distance of Barclays Center and just 1585 feet from the nearest subway station, making late-night rides back from Manhattan venues a breeze. The hotel’s flexible check-out time of 12:00 PM is perfect for sleeping in after a long night, and the 24-hour gym is ideal for early risers or post-show workouts. While the hotel is in a lively neighborhood, guests report rooms are quiet enough for a solid night’s rest.

The NU Bar serves a daily continental breakfast — a lifesaver after a late night. In the evening, it switches to a tapas menu and full-service bar, perfect for pre-show snacks or nightcaps.
