Nu Hotel

Conveniently placed for the shops and restaurants of BoCoCa, Nu Hotel has bundled quirky niceties into a classy, eco-friendly package. Cork flooring, organic linens and recycled teak furniture cohabitate with 32-inch flat-screen TVs and Sangean audio systems, free Wi-Fi and AV docks for multi­media devices. The minimalist standard rooms are comfortably sized, but Friends Suites have bunk beds, and the lofty Urban Suites are outfitted with hammocks and a padded-leather sleeping alcove. Cyclists can borrow one of the hotel’s loaner bikes to pedal around Brooklyn, and iPads are available for guest use. The lobby bar, which has outside tables in the warmer months, offers a tapas menu designed by Next Iron Chef runner-up Jehangir Mehta. Rooms: 93
