What guests say
8.3 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 1,165 guest reviews
The William Vale wins consistent admiration for its spectacular skyline views, private balconies in every room, and prime Williamsburg location, with most guests rating staff as friendly and accommodating. However, recurring complaints about dated or poorly maintained rooms, restricted pool access, an unpredictable rooftop bar, and communication lapses suggest the hotel does not always deliver on its premium price point. Travellers seeking a visually impressive base in Brooklyn will likely leave satisfied, but those prioritising seamless service and well-maintained facilities may find it falls short of expectations.
