Travel & Accommodations

︎ RETURN TO HOMEPAGE

We highly reccomend you stay in Brooklyn for the duration of your visit. More specifically, we recommend staying in Williamsburg, a nice neighborhood in Brooklyn that offers all the ameneties of Manhattan without the headache of going into the city.

GETTING HERE

<YOUR CITY> ︎ JFK

This is the main airport of New York City, and is located in Brooklyn. Amazing. This is probably your best bet.

<YOUR CITY> ︎ LGA

This is the second biggest airport in New York, and is also located in Brooklyn. It isn’t as nice, but is closer to where you should be staying.

GETTING AROUND

UBER AND LYFT

Car sharing services are the number one option in New York and Brooklyn. They are highly reliable, safe, and the friendliest drivers in New York. You can have them pick you up from either airport.

CAR RENTALS

Don’t do this.
Driving around here is a nightmare, and you can’t park anywhere.

WHERE TO STAY
WILLIAMSBURG

There are four hotels within two blocks of each other, and we recommend one. This location puts you in walking distance of the Welcome Event, subways, ferries, and more.

 
DISCOUNT CODE ‘ HITCHED719 ’ 
Hoxton is the best value: they provide complimentary breakfast, free coffee and tea, and Nagib and Nadia described the rooms a “different.”


PROMOTION CODE  ‘ wed15 ’
The William Vale is our luxury option, offering the largest rooms and an unforgettable rooftop with 360° views of Manhattan and Brooklyn. A great way to spend money.

          
We recommend these hotels if The Hoxton is booked.

Where to Eat

︎ RETURN TO HOMEPAGE

There are many great places to eat in Brooklyn. Seriously. It’s like a city full of Olive Gardens. Below are some of our favorites, but if you don’t trust us because Mina’s idea of a great meal is a Big Mac (”They’re great in every city!”), then use these links:
