Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites New York Brooklyn

Fairfield by Marriott New York Brooklyn is in Gowanus, a few miles south of DUMBO, and belongs in the comparison when a lower rate justifies using the subway. The hotel offers rooms and suites, a full hot breakfast, Wi-Fi, a fitness room and a rooftop terrace with city views. Its location does not put you within walking distance of DUMBO’s piers, so consider it a Brooklyn base with transit connections rather than accommodation inside the tourist neighbourhood.

Guests often mention breakfast, access to transit and friendly staff; other reviews report problems with air conditioning, maintenance and small rooms. The listing checked showed 4.0/5 from 1,199 opinions; Tripadvisor displayed 4/5 from 877 reviews and Priceline showed 8.1/10 from 1,040. The property is classified as a three-star hotel. Included breakfast can start the day without another bill, but the rate is not always lower than Hampton Inn’s: compare the same nights and add taxes and travel costs.

The address is 181 3rd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217; phone (718) 522-4000. Check-in starts at 3 p.m. and check-out is by 11 a.m. Breakfast is served Monday to Friday from 6 to 9:30 a.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 7 to 10 a.m.; on-site parking is limited and paid. From Gowanus, check subway routes towards York Street or High Street and allow for the final walk. Before choosing it, review the specific room and cancellation terms: it offers useful amenities, but guest comments suggest maintenance can vary.
