What Franklin Guesthouse actually is

The Franklin Guesthouse is a small property on Franklin Street in Greenpoint, operating with a guesthouse sensibility rather than a hotel one — a modest number of rooms, informal service and a residential atmosphere.

Greenpoint is among the quieter and more characterful Brooklyn neighbourhoods, with a long-established Polish community, good restaurants and the East River waterfront with its Manhattan views. The G train and the East River Ferry both serve the area.

Where it sits

The northern tip of Brooklyn, historically Polish and still visibly so along Manhattan Avenue, with the best skyline views in the borough from the East River waterfront at Transmitter Park. It is quieter than Williamsburg immediately south and has become a strong food and design neighborhood in its own right. Hotels are small, new and design-led.
