Hotel
This hotel is about a 15-minute walk or 5-minute car ride from the venue in Dumbo. It is also across the street from Dekalb Market Hall at City Point, the biggest food hall in Brooklyn (the pierogis are a must!). It is centrally located to almost all train lines. We've reserved several rooms at a discounted rate ($189 king bed/$199 2 double beds). Rooms can be booked at this rate from Friday 8/23- Monday 8/27, plus up to 2 days on either side. This room block will be held until August 2nd, so please book before then if you'd like to take advantage of it.
House Or Rental
We are very pro-AirBNB, and there are tons of options in New York. This may be a more affordable option, especially if you are coming with a group or want a more authentic New York experience. Neighborhoods that are generally cute and relatively close: Fort Greene, Cobble Hill, Prospect Heights, Park Slope, Brooklyn Heights, and of course Dumbo! If you want to stay in Manhattan, we recommend lower Manhattan for proximity to the venue - Battery Park, FiDi, SoHo, West Village, etc. are all pretty close and decent neighborhoods to stay in.
