Neighborhood: Boerum Hill, Brooklyn

Price: Standard sized rooms cost around $300 p/night

I’ve had the pleasure of staying at Nu Hotel numerous times before I moved to New York. It was always my hotel of choice. Off-season, it’s reasonably priced and really comfortable. The standard rooms are large and the beds are comfortable. They have room sizes of all types from bunk beds to larger suites. Pet friendly with complimentary bikes and iPads. Oh, and there’s complimentary breakfast too.

We had the most amazing time shooting with Jessica, a nail artist and accessory designer for Coach. She’s such a ray of sunshine and a total babe! Check out her Scouted Field Guide to get her scoop on the best places near her neighborhood of Brooklyn Heights.

Julia lives in: Bushwick

Photo location: Under the Manhattan Bridge, DUMBO, Brooklyn

I’m really excited to talk about Julia Robbs today! Before I started working out of Studiomates—where Julia also works—I had admired her work with Tattly for a while. She was always one of those people who’s personality I assumed matched her work: bright and ethereal. As it turns out, I wasn’t wrong. Julia is one of the nicest, friendliest people I’ve met in this amazing city. Born in Paris, France and recently transplanted to New York, Julia has great taste in cities and places to go!

Julia’s work as Tattly’s resident photographer is definitely something worth sharing. She also shoots weddings around the world with the folks at Labor of Love.

Launch week is upon us! We had the most amazing time shooting all of our first scouts and wanted to share some of our favorite Scouttakes with you. From Lotta looking badass in front of a vintage car to Bekka looking disappointed by the Brooklyn Bridge. A huge amazing shoutout to our photographer, Jeff, who put these together and always captures the humor of our scouts.

Neighborhood: South Street Seaport

Price: Free

There are only few weeks left for South Street Seaport’s summer cinema program. Rather than the typical overcrowded park, guests can watch a movie like Back to the Future or Close Encounters of the Third Kind (personal favorite) in a comfortable chair. Plus, you can pop over to Smorgasbar and grab a bite to eat from tons of local New York eateries. This series ends September 7!

Jenna Park, owner of Whimsy & Spice, wrote an amazing writeup of the South Street Seaport’s summer cinema series here.

Neighborhood: Chelsea

Price: Standard sized rooms cost around $400 p/night.

I’ve always admired this hotel from the street and finally got a chance to check it out in person while my dad was visiting. We were walking around the Chelsea Market in desperate need of a restroom. The line was wrapping around the market so we decided to leave and run into The Maritime Hotel’s lobby to use their restroom. I had always been looking for an excuse to see the hotel and it didn’t disappoint. The hotel has a beautiful mid-century vacation vibe. The gorgeous rooms feel like you’re staying on an oversized cruise ship stateroom.

I especially love this hotel because it doesn’t have the usual upscale trendy design that most New York hotels have. Instead, The Maritime Hotel has a vintage aesthetic and unique appeal.
