If you're keen to base yourself in bustling Williamsburg, in Brooklyn (which really is a great neighbourhood to get out and about in) and still want to be a single, easy subway ride from Manhattan, then do this. No regrets about being off Manhattan island, some days it was an easy 40 minute stroll to Lower East Side or Upper... More

Staff is very attentive and Hotel is very nice. Unluckily, as of May 2013 the Hotel is being renovated and there is no real lobby area. Reception is currently located in a room on the 6th floor. I would go back, but in my opinion the Hotel management should forewarn people when they are making their booking.

This was our first stay at this boutique hotel bordering Williamsburg and it won't be our last. The hotel was having some minor repairs to the lobby where we were guests but the staff more than made up for the minor inconvenience with their friendliness and freely shared local knowledge. The room was immaculate and the bed was enormously comfortable.... More

Unexpected construction led be to question this location - temporary entrance is difficult to find and not really ideal. While construction was audible, it did not prevent me from sleeping at any time, and I did not find the noise to be too annoying. The room itself was reasonably sized and nicely furnished. Quite comfortable bed. Neighborhood is fantastic -... More

When we arrived at the King & Grove Williamsburg on April 4/13, I thought the taxi had brought us to the wrong place. All the windows were covered in brown paper and the entrance to the hotel was almost completely hidden. If not for the doorman we would have left. The hotel gave us no prior notification that it was... More

This may be a perfectly fine place to stay under normal circumstances. But unfortunately this is not much of a hotel in its current state. Expect to step through a full-on construction site with a glass shattering jack-hammer vibrating every inch of the building. I mean that literally because apparently the jack-hammer shattered all the glass in the ground floor... More

Whether you are looking to spend a weekend exploring Brooklyn (especially Smorgasburg for big time foodies) or head into Manhattan, location wise this is a great jumping off point with more room to breath than many tiny hotel rooms in the city. The modern design in the rooms was nice and clean, and I appreciated the balcony overlooking the park.... More

The King & Grove is in the heart of trendy Williamsburg, with restaurants and cafés a step away. It's a 15-minute walk to the subway, but just one stop out from Manhattan, so ultimately was very convenient. The staff were very helpful and accommodating and the room was quiet and comfortable (it faced onto McCarren Park). When the pool is... More

We booked 3 nights at the hotel. The area was fine. On the morning of the day after our check-in we were woken by jackhammers. It was about 9am. I went to speak to staff on the 6th floor and found them unsympathetic. I stayed for breakfast. The coffee carafe was empty as well as the milk. The woman working... More
