The Spotlight on Penny Williamsburg

Urban Cool Meets Concert Convenience in Williamsburg

Penny Williamsburg is a stylish, modern 4-star hotel in the heart of Brooklyn’s vibrant Williamsburg neighborhood. Blending sleek design with creative flair, this hotel offers a laid-back yet upscale vibe just minutes from some of New York City’s top live music venues. With free bikes, a rooftop terrace, and a well-regarded on-site bar and restaurant, it’s a perfect base to soak in the city's music scene.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans love Penny Williamsburg for its excellent location—close to popular Brooklyn and Manhattan venues, but tucked into a more relaxed part of town for quieter nights. The 24-hour concierge service makes late-night returns easy, and the rooftop terrace is a great post-show hangout. Plus, the hotel’s multilingual staff are available around the clock to help with transport, food, and tips on the local scene.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a cool, central base without the chaos of Manhattan
  • Solo travelers catching a dream gig and wanting a safe, stylish place to unwind
  • Couples seeking a romantic weekend with a musical twist
  • Fans needing recovery time in a quieter, artsy neighborhood
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want premium vibes without splurging on Midtown

Food and Drink Options

There’s an on-site restaurant and bar perfect for grabbing a bite or drink before or after the show. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the neighborhood is packed with walkable late-night eateries, from tacos to ramen to wood-fired pizza. The hotel also offers in-room fridges—ideal for storing post-show snacks or morning-after essentials.

Nightlife Options

Staying at Penny Williamsburg puts you steps from some of Brooklyn’s best nightlife. The hotel’s own bar serves up craft cocktails in a chill, stylish space, and you’re within walking distance of live music bars, indie venues, and rooftop lounges. Whether you're heading out or staying in, the vibe is effortlessly cool.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly, multilingual staff, the stylish design, and the location right in Williamsburg. Reviews highlight the rooftop terrace as a favorite spot to relax after a night out. Travelers also rave about how clean and quiet the rooms are, even in the middle of the city.

Areas for Improvement

If we’re being honest, Penny Williamsburg doesn’t offer 24/7 room service—which might be a minor letdown after a late-night concert craving. And while the hotel has a trendy vibe, it may not suit travelers looking for traditional hotel luxury or expansive amenities.

The Bottom Line

Penny Williamsburg is a stylish, well-located option for concert-goers who want easy access to NYC’s music scene with a cool, relaxed Brooklyn vibe.

This was a very "cool"experience...

Liked: Call it cool, creative, hip, stylish, trendy or anything similar that doesn't sounds to gen x. This is a great hotel to experience the local delights of Williamsburgs, Brooklyn and even Manhattan. From the cool art pieces, unique coffee experiences, fantastic views to delicious breakfast pastries and tremendous tacos...what didn't I like?
Disliked: Having to leave for my trip home.

Delightful Stay

Liked: Second time to this little gem of a hotel. The location is perfect to visit family nearby. The staff is perfect - friendly, helpful. The room was even more comfortable than our last stay! We enjoyed a drink on the rooftop before we went to dinner. Great views and service.
Disliked: A squeegee for the shower door would be appreciated. We had quite a wet bath mat... personal problem?!

Pleasant but didn't like the...

Liked: Liked the comfort of the bed, but it would have been too small for two people. This was marketed as a queen sized bed but it was actually a full size bed. The bathroom had a nice shower and offered shampoo/conditioner/hand or body soap, which was nice.
Disliked: Sitting area not too comfy. Sit on the bed.
