In this guide
What the destination fee is and how it’s collected
Ace Hotel Brooklyn applies a destination fee of $40 per night plus tax in addition to your room rate. The fee is charged per night for each room and is collected by the hotel at or before check-in as part of your booking charges.
This destination fee is separate from any incidental-authorization the hotel may place on your credit card at check-in (see incidentals section). If you need the fee broken out on an invoice or folio, request that at check-in or from the front desk.
- Amount: $40 per night plus tax (as stated by the hotel).
- Charged in addition to the nightly room rate.
- Appears on your hotel bill; ask front desk if you need line-item detail.
| Fee item | Collected by |
|---|---|
| Destination fee ($40/night + tax) | Ace Hotel Brooklyn at check-in/booking |
| Incidentals authorization (card hold) | Hotel front desk at check-in (see incidentals hold) |
| Room rate | Paid via your booking channel or hotel |
What the destination fee covers
The hotel’s published destination-fee inclusions list the main services bundled with the $40/night charge. These are specific items the property says are provided as part of the fee rather than general resort credits.
If a particular inclusion matters to your stay (for example, super WiFi for streaming or gym access), confirm availability with the front desk on arrival.
- 24-hour fitness center access (third-floor gym; key required)
- Enhanced in-room 'super WiFi' with TV casting
- Complimentary domestic and international phone calls
- 15% discount at the Ace Retail Shop
- Complimentary pet beds/amenities for pet-owning guests
| Included service | Notes |
|---|---|
| Fitness center (24-hour) | Access granted with guest room key |
| Enhanced in-room WiFi | Upgraded connection with TV casting capability |
| Phone calls | Complimentary domestic & international calls |
How the fee affects reservations and billing
The destination fee is added on top of your nightly room rate and taxes; it is not included in standard room-rate displays unless the booking channel shows a total price that aggregates all charges. Always check the final folio before accepting charges.
At check-in the hotel authorizes a card for the room cost plus taxes and an additional incidental hold (the property publishes a $300 hold). That authorization and the daily destination fee are separate items on your account.
- Destination fee appears as a nightly line item on your bill.
- The hotel places an incidental authorization (about $300) at check-in.
- Ask for a printed or emailed folio at check-in or check-out for clear billing.
| Charge type | Typical timing |
|---|---|
| Room rate + taxes | Charged at booking or check-in depending on rate policy |
| Destination fee ($40/night + tax) | Added per night to the hotel bill |
| Incidentals authorization (hold) | Placed at check-in (hotel states $300) |
How the fee interacts with amenities you might use
Several on-site amenities that travelers commonly expect are explicitly covered by the destination fee: the 24-hour gym and the enhanced in-room WiFi/TV casting. Basic WiFi in public areas and guest rooms is also available, while the destination fee covers the enhanced connection.
Other hotel services — meals at Lele's Roman, Koju omakase, The Lobby bar purchases, laundry, parking, and spa alternatives — are charged separately and are not covered by the destination fee.
- Covered: 24-hour fitness center, enhanced in-room WiFi/TV casting, phone calls, Ace Shop discount, pet amenities.
- Not covered: restaurant bills, minibar purchases, valet or off-site parking fees, laundry charges (unless otherwise stated).
- If you plan to use the gym or stream to the room TV, the destination fee includes those specific access features.
| Amenity | Included with destination fee? |
|---|---|
| Fitness center (3rd floor) | Yes — included |
| Enhanced in-room WiFi with TV casting | Yes — included |
| Lele's Roman meals / Koju omakase | No — charged separately |
Special situations: pets, meetings, and event bookings
Pet-owning guests should note the hotel lists complimentary pet beds/amenities as part of the destination fee, but the property also publishes a separate dog fee ($25 per pet, per day) and a pet waiver requirement at check-in. Confirm how those two items are applied when you arrive.
If you’re booking meetings or an event ( Atrium, Studio, Stoop, etc.), event contracts and group blocks often specify whether destination fees apply to individual room nights; always review the contract or ask your event contact.
- Pets: destination fee lists pet amenities as included; hotel also publishes a $25/day dog fee and waiver form requirement.
- Events: ask your event manager whether the destination fee is applied to room blocks.
- Accessible rooms and services follow the hotel’s accessibility policies and are not affected by the destination fee other than the standard inclusions.
| Situation | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Traveling with a dog | Whether the $25/day pet fee and destination-fee pet amenities both apply |
| Group or event booking | If destination fee is billed to individual room nights or to the master account |
| Accessible room needs | Confirm accessibility features on reservation; destination fee inclusions remain the same |
What to ask the hotel before you arrive
Before you travel, ask Ace Hotel Brooklyn (or your booking agent) to confirm the destination fee amount and exactly what’s included for the dates of your stay. Policies and inclusions are set by the hotel and can change.
If you have specific billing needs — for example, needing the destination fee to be billed to a company card or waived for a negotiated group contract — request written confirmation ahead of arrival.
- Confirm the $40/night plus tax figure for your specific dates.
- Ask whether the $25/day dog fee will also be applied if you travel with a dog.
- Request an itemized folio showing room rate, destination fee, taxes, and incidentals.
