Hip Hotel: The Broome Opens in New York

Next time you need to book a hotel room in New York, check out the brand new boutique hotel The Broome. Tucked away in a Federal Revival Style building built in 1825 that was a former artists’ loft located on the corner of Broome Street and Crosby Street, The Broome is like an oasis in the middle of SoHo, which in case you didn’t know, is one of the city’s most stylish neighborhoods, and filled with luxury boutiques, see-and-be-seen restaurants, and lots of people watching.

Once inside, be prepared to get impressed by The Broome’s art collection, which is filled with works by Chaz Guest — a favorite of Barack Obama, Jean Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring. Then, head out of the lobby and into a nice courtyard that makes you feel like you’re in Europe. There are only 14 rooms inside The Broome, making it feel more like you’re a New Yorker living in an intimate apartment building and less like you’re staying a hotel in the middle of the Big Apple.

The rooms feature cool Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams furnishings, plush-top Queen and King Sealy mattresses and Bellimo sheets, which gives you the most amazing sleeping experience. If you’re in the mood for a little television, there’s a Samsung Smart TV, or if music is more your fancy, put some beats on the Tivoli sound system. The mini bar is filled with local goodies like Nunu’s Chocolates and Tate’s Bakeshop Cookies, and if you’re feeling a like being a little naughty, there’s a Henley e-cigarette and a kit full of condoms and sex toys.

Enjoy a cappuccino in the café in the morning and read your paper while feeling as if you’re in Italy, while enjoying a breakfast of Ronnybrook Farm dairy products and Cei Cela pastries, fruit, granola, yogurt, and juices. Then, play a game of Foosball, and look for goodies to bring back home in The Treehouse, which is filled with all sorts of interesting gifts. Now, you’re all ready to head out and enjoy a day or night out in the Big Apple.
