Riverhouse 1 HOTEL BROOKLYN BRIDGE, BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, US This LEED-certified hotel is set in an 85-acre beautification project along Brooklyn’s East River waterfront. Many of the materials used to build the hotel were reclaimed, and the decor was largely created by local artisans. Run completely on wind power, the hotel also donates a percentage of sales from in-room dining and the minibar to the global humanitarian organization Action Against Hunger. We recommend the Riverhouse, a spacious suite offering exceptional views of the Brooklyn Bridge and theManhattan skyline. The interior’s abundant wood, stone, leather and other organic materials provide the perfect respite from New York’s concrete jungle. Special amenities River-view hammock, in-room yoga mat, dining area for 10 and curated minibar with house-made cocktail recipes Size 2,000 sq ft Number of bedrooms Three Nightly rate from $7,649 Contact Cornelia Samara, general manager, cornelia.samara@1hotels.com, +1 877 803 1111, 1hotels.com
