About The Rockaway Hotel
New York City isn’t known for its beaches, but the Rockaways are the exception, and the Rockaway Hotel brings a bit of downtown style to this ocean-facing stretch of deep outer Queens. Designed by the same Morris Adjmi responsible for Brooklyn’s Wythe Hotel, it’s as hip as anything in town, and while summertime is when its beach-and-pool scene really shines, it’s relevant as a nearby getaway year-round. Its restaurant, bar, and café are still in the works, as is the spa, but for now it’s a welcome respite from crowded Manhattan and Brooklyn and an optimistic taste of a stylistic resurgence for the city’s beach communities.
