The Hoxton arrived in Williamsburg in 2018, converting a six-storey industrial building into a hotel that found the balance between the neighbourhood's manufacturing heritage and the specific atmosphere of the Hoxton's brand identity — warm, mismatched furniture, a lobby that works as a neighbourhood bar, rooms with proper writing desks and long windows. The Williamsburg location benefits from the neighbourhood's particular position: industrial-residential, culturally dense, close to the East River, and within twenty minutes of Manhattan without requiring the guest to engage with Manhattan in order to arrive. The lobby bar in the morning before the rest of the building wakes is the correct use of the space.
