Boro Hotel — backstory

Backstory

Architects Grzywinski + Pons transformed an abandoned concrete structural frame into a light-filled boutique hotel, balancing raw industrial bones with Scandinavian warmth.

Boro Hotel — eat & drink

Eat & drink

Beebe's fires thin-crust pizzas on the ground floor, while the open-air rooftop serves draft Negronis and local Queens craft beers.

The neighborhood

Set in industrial Dutch Kills, the surrounding blocks hold craft breweries and subway links that reach Midtown Manhattan in two stops.

“Boro Hotel is a stylish, boutique-style lodging that’s not just a sensible alternative to Manhattan, but a destination in its own right.”
