SPRING IN BROOKLYN

DISCOVER THE BOROUGH IN BLOOM

This winter has been long, exceptionally cold, and many of us are more than ready to get outside again. Luckily, warmer days in Brooklyn are right around the corner. Soon, the parks will be lush, rooftop bars will fill with golden-hour crowds, and the city will buzz as everyone comes out of hibernation. 

At NU Hotel, you’re at the magnetic center of it all. Authentic local culture, world-class art at the Brooklyn Museum, and sunset bike rides along the East River are right outside our doors.

Whether you’re arriving by the LIRR, crossing the bridge for a weekend staycation, or flying in to explore the city’s coolest borough, NU Hotel is your art-filled sanctuary in the heart of Brooklyn. From spontaneous weekend escapes in our loft-style suites to deep-dives into the local gallery scene, your spring awakening starts here.
