Hip Hotel: The Broome Opens in New York

Next time you need to book a hotel room in New York, check out the brand new boutique hotel The Broome. Tucked away in a Federal Revival Style building built in 1825 that was a former artists’ loft located on the corner of Broome Street and Crosby Street, The Broome is like an oasis in the middle of SoHo, which in case you didn’t know, is one of the city’s most stylish neighborhoods, and filled with luxury boutiques, see-and-be-seen restaurants, and lots of people watching.

Once inside, be prepared to get impressed by The Broome’s art collection, which is filled with works by Chaz Guest — a favorite of Barack Obama, Jean Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring. Then, head out of the lobby and into a nice courtyard that makes you feel like you’re in Europe. There are only 14 rooms inside The Broome, making it feel more like you’re a New Yorker living in an intimate apartment building and less like you’re staying a hotel in the middle of the Big Apple.

The rooms feature cool Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams furnishings, plush-top Queen and King Sealy mattresses and Bellimo sheets, which gives you the most amazing sleeping experience. If you’re in the mood for a little television, there’s a Samsung Smart TV, or if music is more your fancy, put some beats on the Tivoli sound system. The mini bar is filled with local goodies like Nunu’s Chocolates and Tate’s Bakeshop Cookies, and if you’re feeling a like being a little naughty, there’s a Henley e-cigarette and a kit full of condoms and sex toys.

Enjoy a cappuccino in the café in the morning and read your paper while feeling as if you’re in Italy, while enjoying a breakfast of Ronnybrook Farm dairy products and Cei Cela pastries, fruit, granola, yogurt, and juices. Then, play a game of Foosball, and look for goodies to bring back home in The Treehouse, which is filled with all sorts of interesting gifts. Now, you’re all ready to head out and enjoy a day or night out in the Big Apple.

While iconic destinations like Rome, Athens, and Mallorca offer stunning honeymoons, they can be expensive, and many couples prefer to stay closer to home. Upgraded Points' latest study shows that a dream honeymoon doesn’t always require an international flight or a large budget. By analyzing over 75 popular U.S. cities based on 15 ranking factors, the study highlights the top domestic honeymoon destinations for 2025. These destinations were evaluated under summer conditions (June through September) to reflect the peak honeymoon season.

Topping the list is Miami Beach, Florida, a place that’s practically synonymous with romance. Miami Beach stands out with 7.72 romantic stays and 32.33 romantic restaurants per 10,000 residents, far above the national average. Along with its high number of romantic hotels and eateries, Miami Beach also boasts 147 couple-friendly attractions and 31 honeymoon-specific experiences. What's even more impressive is that romantic stays here average just $64 per night, well below the national average of $158.
