If your holiday spirit tends to skew more feelings than fa-la-la, there’s a new pop-up in Williamsburg that understands you on a deep, early-2000s level.

Emo Christmas, a seasonal takeover of Arlo Williamsburg’s Mirror Bar, is here to rescue the season from polite cheer with a festive dose of eyeliner, nostalgia and moody holiday energy.

Best Artsy Hotel – Part boutique hotel, part creativity hub, Arlo Wynwood is where your inner artist checks in and your outer Instagrammer loses its mind. There’s a rooftop pool, courtyard cocktails, and striking murals to match the hotel’s surrounding neighborhood. The newly opened Wyn Wyn, a Latin-Asian fusion spot from chef Amado Rodriguez, adds that much more flavor to the mix.

“The next morning, my wife and I left Arlo Chicago, a contemporary, artsy hotel on Michigan Avenue across from Millennium Park……The hotel’s indoor/outdoor restaurant and bar, cheekily named About Last Knife (a nod to the 1986 Chicago rom-com About Last Night), made me smile.”

In Williamsburg, Sungold reinvents the classic potato latke in both shape and structure. A combo of shredded Idaho russet potatoes and shaved celery root are formed into thick, triangular wedges and then slow-cooked in clarified butter, before being pressed, chilled, and fried to order for extra crispiness.

Arlo SoHo stands out for its stylish, compact rooms and vibrant communal spaces. With a specialty in fostering social interaction, guests can enjoy breathtaking views from their rooftop bar A.R.T Soho or relax in the cozy courtyard, making it a popular choice for trendy travelers. It’s an easy walk to all the Soho restaurants, shops, and cafes, as well as the picturesque Hudson River path.

Arlo Hotels President Jimmy Suh is expanding the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs at his 7-property hotel chain at a time when hundreds of U.S. companies are scrubbing such language from their annual reports.

Arlo Hotels, the independent lifestyle hotel brand with properties in New York, Chicago, and Miami, is excited to announce to official launch of ART DC, the rooftop at the newly opened Arlo Washington DC. Located in the heart of downtown, ART DC is an indoor-outdoor bar and lounge with unparalleled views of the Capitol Building and the Washington Monument.

The Arlo Hotel group is cranking out new restaurants of late: first, we got the splashy Italian-inflected spot Sungold over at the Arlo Williamsburg location and now its Manhattan sibling, the Arlo NoMad (11 E 31st Street), is welcoming a new all-day eatery to the property: The NoMad Diner.
