We were beginning to think Hotel Le Bleu would turn into Brooklyn's Six Columbus with delay after delay.

But GM Robert Gaeta wrote in to confirm rumors that the hotel opened over the weekend:

Hotel Le Bleu, Brooklyn's first luxury boutique hotel is now open as of 4PM Friday. The Department of Buildings gave us our Certificate of Occupancy. We had our first guests check in today. Guests from Virginia...Next big story: When the top floor restaurant and roof lounge Vue opens.

Hey, that will be a big story. Last we heard, it'll be opening sometime next year.

VIVE LE BLEU!

Happy that Robert Gaeta gets to welcome real guests for a change.

Just checked the web site and all I can say: it ain't cheap!

Good question (none / 0)

Given that they went through the trouble of calling it a French name (and a weird one with that... hardly marketable IMHO 'though terribly exotic), I certainly hope that there will be French influences.

Well, I'm sure they don't cater to 'grandpa and grandma visiting from the Midwest' (I have a hard time picturing them in the glassed shower, lol) so hopefully most of their exquisite clientele will know they should not call it 'le bluuuh'...
