The man who comes in early to work, gets the promotion. The man who goes the extra mile for his girl, wins her heart. All it takes is an ounce more of care, dedication, and work, and a man has it made in this world. It’s that extra step, extra action that puts him on the map, and separates him from the masses, allowing him to rise to his fullest potential. There’s not many hotels who go above and beyond for their guests, who take that extra mile, but we know of one in Brooklyn: 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge.

Paying attention to the details at 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge will show you just how many extra steps this property is taking for you. It starts with design, which features bright lighting, native greenery, reclaimed materials like wood and steel, and art from local artists. It’s light and airy, creating a soothing atmosphere in an attractive space.

Party it up during the day and early evening at the 1 Rooftop Garden & Bar, a rooftop bar with a plunge pool and bar serving craft cocktails and light bites. It’s here where you’ll catch those stunning Manhattan sunsets.

Now take your room, for example. Not only are there comfortable beds and great skyline views of the Brooklyn bridge, but there’s also Nespresso coffeemakers, yoga mats, minibars, and flat-screen TVs of which you can stream content from your device. But the gold is in the details, my traveling friends. They also have organic cotton mattresses and sheets, free Wi-Fi, cotton-knit robes, and filtered tap water. Plus, the glass showers feature triple-filtered rain water, allowing you to relax your mind and body under the massaging spray of clean water.

How many hotels do you know that care so much about you that they’ll filter your water? We’ll wait.

While you think on that, consider this: the hotel also features the Bamford Haybarn Spa, a spot to receive relaxing massages that can work out those stressful muscles in your neck and shoulders.

1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge is also killing it on the food and entertainment side of things. Grab coffee and breakfast or lunch and a light dinner at Neighbors, their charming café that attracts locals and guests alike. For a more upscale dining experience, The Osprey is a perfect place for American comfort food.

Party it up during the day and early evening at the 1 Rooftop Garden & Bar, a rooftop bar with a plunge pool and bar serving craft cocktails and light bites. It’s here where you’ll catch those stunning Manhattan sunsets. While the Lobby Lounge is perfect for pre-dinner drinks, you’ll want to amp it up after dinner Wednesday through Sunday at the Brooklyn Heights Social Club, a sophisticated spot that’s sexy and luxe with splendid views of the bridge.

As the name implies, this hotel is close to the Brooklyn Bridge. It won’t take long to walk across the bridge into Manhattan or explore the hip and trendy neighborhood of Dumbo. Whether it’s Williamsburg or Greenwich, you’ll get there in 25 minutes or less by car – and that’s saying something in New York City.

If we were interviewing 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge for a job, they’d get it hands-down. Whether its through the amenities they provide, the outstanding spaces, stunning views, and the eco-conscious practices they employ, 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge puts in that extra effort — and isn’t that what we’re all looking for?
