Hotel Le Bleu

Wasn’t sure what to expect from this place. I was pleasantly surprised! Its location is kind of unattractive but who cares. One block away is 5th Ave Park Slope, a delightful place to walk.

It’s a 23 minute walk from Barclays Center.

The room itself was terrific. Spacious with 2 beds. A/C that worked well. Bedside outlets, nightstands and reading lights. Bed was comfy. Good pillows. Lots of storage space. Large bathroom and good as shower. The shower level is weird- what you’d assume is the way to get hot water gets you cold water. Just turn the lever enough to get the water flowing and it will become hot.

The worst experience, I was eager to leave early. This was the rudest staff, we had no body wash in the shower and they refused to bring us soap and body wash to our room (because our room was missing them) and several times until I mentioned I would make an official complaint. They wanted me to go down to the lobby to fetch them myself but eventually did bring the body wash. The hotel is next to a Uhaul storage facility and it gets loud at 7am on the weekend so you can’t even sleep in.

Clean , big room, location

i loved the free late check out at 12pm instead of 11am. it was also very clean and they provided toothbrush and toothpaste which was perfect as this was an unplanned stay.

On site parking, the staff was awesome. Location was perfect.

We stayed at Hotel Le Bleu the night before boarding the Queen Mary 2 for our Transatlantic Crossing. It was an ideal location which felt very safe and friendly. We found a very nice restaurant for dinner and a lovely coffee shop for breakfast - both organic.
This is a lovely area with a green space, tree lined steets and wide sidewalks.
The hotel was clean and comfortable with an excellent shower and comfy bed. The room was a good size and because the hotel is set back slightly from 4th Avenue we were not bothered by noise.
The staff were very friendly, helpful and smiling. The icing on the cake is finding a catholic church around the corner for morning mass.

This place needs a reprice or upgrades. I had stayed at this hotel in 2013. When I arrived this week, it looked like not much had been done: the glass door that was the bathroom door was gone and in its place a blue door (it was ok but the blue covering was scratched in places where you could see the wood under it), in 2013 you would fill out a card that was collected by 10 pm with a breakfast option (muffin/donut/croissant etc and you would get a small juice option) that is no longer available and you have to search for stores to get something to eat (DEFINITELY recommend the Organic Valley Deli). The other issue was the refrigerator (wasn’t cold at all) and the HVAC system (the indicator light labels were gone so we never knew what mode it was in). I thought I have the AC (it was rather warm in the room) but you could not tell because it never got cool no matter what light was lit. We had to prop the balcony door open (with our sneakers) which made it really loud.

If you are staying for a night or two the room we were in was adequate…but the 5 nights we stayed was a lot for that room

It’s too bad because again I had been there before and was happy…but it was just for one night then.

It is about .6 miles from the F train so that was ok. Not terrible but eh.

The room was comfortable and the staff was very helpful.
