For all you NYC virgins, stop reading. Because let's be honest, your first time won't be in Queens. But for those who are already familiar with the city: HELLO Boro Hotel! The new hotel is located in Queens and Queens is located above the trendy Greenpoint (a lot above Greenpoint, the Hunterspoint district is still in between, and Greenpoint is again above Williamsburg, NYC's hippest, are you still following me?). Anyway, Queens is also becoming more and more fun since 'people' will start looking elsewhere as soon as the tourists (us) start looking elsewhere and Queens could just be the next big thing could be. Back to the hotel, which is the first design hotel in the hood (= Long Island City) and where the roof terrace + bar and 360 degree view of the city (and therefore an impressive view of the Manhattan skyline from that side!) are one of the the highlights are going to be (think of it Wythe Hotel, also one of the first in that neighborhood (Greenpoint) and now there is a line every day (!) towards the roof terrace bar. Don't connect by the way, there). Be that as it may, Boro is certainly not one of the worst: among other things MoMA's PS1 can be found there, as The Noguchi Museum and Smorgasburg Queens is coming!! And with the tram (N, Q, R, E, M, and R) you can get there in no time. Boro Hotel
