1 Hotels, a new hotel brand on the scene, has officially brought nature to the concrete jungle of Brooklyn. CEO of the company, Barry Sternlicht, says of the hotels: “I wanted to capture the beauty of nature in a hotel and commit to safeguarding it as best I can, a responsibility that I believe we all share. It’s 1 world.” Upon entering the lobby, you can immediately feel the thoughtful design behind this green hotel. Reclaimed woods, industrial steel, and countless plants fill the air. The rooms are just as impressive with, custom hemp-blend mattresses and 100% organic cotton sheets. Say goodbye to plastic, because the room keys are made from recycled wood and the hangers from 100% post consumer recycled material. The lobby market cafe is filled with seasonal fruits and vegetables. The spa is just as beautiful as the rest of the hotel, where they use natural and organic products, organically certified to the highest standard. The rooftop offers delicious drinks with unrivaled views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan skyline. (Closes for winter, mid November – Spring.)
Wildcatter Tip:
Make sure to get a “Bridge View” room and wake up to a spectacular view. Watch boats go by on the East River and survey the ever changing skyline of New York City!
