Brooklyn Marriott Begins $43M Makeover

BROOKLYN, N.Y.

Brooklyn’s largest hotel, the iconic New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge, is launching a $43 million renovation and reposition that aims to completely transform it both physically and in the way it serves guests.

The first phase of the renovation – including The Bar (Great Room Lobby), Front Desk and exclusive new M Club Lounge – will be unveiled this May.

The hotel’s entire renovation will occur in stages. This May, Brooklyn Marriott will unveil a transformation of The Bar (Great Room Lobby), Front Desk and new M Club Lounge, a signature feature of select Marriott Hotels created specifically for frequent Marriott Rewards members. The Bar, located just off of the hotel’s grand entrance, will be the hub of activity. Tableside, guests can enjoy food and drinks sourced locally from Brooklyn, such as craft beers, coffee from Brooklyn Roasting Company and other culinary offerings—including Brooklyn Beer Batter Cod Bites and Lemon and Rosemary Grilled Wings, to name a few.

For guests on the go, the Brooklyn Pantry will offer light bites.

The M Club Lounge, adjacent to the Great Room Lobby, is entered via a welcoming wooden “gate.” The spacious, light-filled lounge boasts natural materials such as wood, rope and knots that divide the spaces, which are reflective of the nearby Brooklyn Navy Yard. A large communal table invites guests to the heart of the room, and guests can unwind with a glass of wine from Brooklyn Winery.

The Front Desk will be recreated as three reception pods to allow for more intimate interaction. A dramatic focal point during the check-in experience is a large abstract mural based on a photograph of the Brooklyn Bridge.

The renovation of the hotel’s ballroom and meeting rooms, one of the largest and most versatile such venues in the entire city, will be completed in September 2015. This spring, the hotel will also unveil the redesign of its 667 guest rooms.  All guest room renovations will be completed in 2016.

The New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge is located at 333 Adams Street in the heart of Downtown Brooklyn, steps away from MetroTech Center, Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill. It is convenient to Barclays Center, the Brooklyn Museum, the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) and the Brooklyn Bridge Park. The hotel features 667 rooms and suites, a fitness center, and over 40,000 square feet of banquet and meeting space.
