We'll definitely be back to The Box House Hotel on all our future trips to New York. Myself and my wife stayed there as part of our Honeymoon after a stint in Jamaica. As you can imagine we were weary of making our way to Brooklyn after the tranquil paradise of the Caribbean but any worries we had were quickly put to rest upon arriving at The Box House Hotel. We booked via AirBnb but the staff never made us feel any different from any of the other guests, they were extremely welcoming and helpful; giving us information leaflets about all the local take-aways as soon as we checked in (it was a late one as we had spent a nightmare few hours waiting in line to get through US immigration and we were starving). They even made the call for us once we had figured out what we wanted to go with.

The room was just as depicted, lovely, large enough to accommodate more than the two of us, with high ceilings and nice decor throughout.

A notable highlight was the restaurant which did a brilliant breakfast to order (we recommend the French Toast) and the complementary taxi within a one mile radius. You don't really need it because the subway is just over the bridge (5-10 min walk) and its got good connects to Time Square (you're literally a stop away from Grand Central so you can get just about anywhere in the city relatively quickly.

To be fair this was a home away from home and we got comfortable very quickly. On our last night the staff turned over our room with rose petals and a bottle of bubbly. They really went out of their way to make it a pleasurable experience for us and we're more than grateful.

My only gripe was that there was roadworks going on on the bridge into the early hours of the morning which were difficult to escape the noise of....but that's not the hotel's fault and

We had a great time and we'll see you when we're back in the Big Apple!
