Reviews

  • Efren from United States (8/10)

    Insignia was a nice hotel in front of a HotPot/BBQ all-you-can-eat, and other nearby food spots in the heart of Chinatown Brooklyn. The staff was friendly, and the amenities were pretty good. The power/light fixture took a bit to get used to, needs to input Keycard to access power in the room otherwise it resets/shuts off after 10-15 mins. That being said think it’s a good way to save energy, they also offer minor beverages + snacks at reception, if that doesn’t satisfy you, I can’t stress it enough, go to the HotPot place right across the street; it’s the best experience when staying at this hotel.

  • Amiyah from United States (9/10)

    It was clean and the rooms were sound proof

  • Mayara from Brazil (8/10)

    The location is very good because it is super close to the train station (less than 5 min by walking) and the line goes to Manhattan.

  • Koma from Uganda (8/10)

    The place was quiet

  • Melissa from United States (8/10)

    Perfect area for the event we were there for. I will absolutely be staying here again next year.
