We loved our time at the Blue Porch. Trudy and Paul were so helpful and kind. We not only enjoyed our rooms (and nice updated bathroom!) but visiting with them and hearing more about Brooklyn and other things to see and do near our destinations. I can't imagine finding a more spacious, quiet retreat in the city. A tip: allow... More

The family makes you feel right at home. Helps you with directions and tips of what to see and do. The breakfast is incredible both for the eye and stomach. Located in a nice quiet area. Comfortable spacious rooms with bath separately. If you are a social person and wants to get close to a genuine New York family, this... More

This large, quaint home is located within easy walking distance of the subway - a plus if you come to town without a car. Trudy and Paul do their best to ensure that you find interesting, easily-accessible places to visit while you are in town. Paul produced detailed maps and both helped out with background information on the sites we... More

We had a most outstanding stay at the Blue Porch and we enjoyed it from the first to the last minute. It was outstanding by any means. The room is spacious and comfortable and provides space for your luggage and is very quite. Together with the comfortable bed we got a perfect good night's rest. The quality continues with the...

If you desire lodging in NYC but not the hustle and bustle of staying in-town or the impersonal feeling of a large hotel, please consider the marvelous Blue Porch Bed and Breakfast in nearby Brooklyn...an easy subway ride away. My husband and I spent two nights over the recent Presidents' Day weekend and can't speak highly enough about our stay... More

We've spent one week with our two daughters in NY for Christmas. It was a fantastic week, thanks to the such lovely and calm Blue Porch B&B. Trudy and Paul are so kind and interesting, always trying to find out how to help us with plans and restaurants adresses or new ideas to visit the town. They have such a... More

My wife and I spent two wonderful nights at the Blue Porch B & B in Brooklyn, surprised by the atmosphere of culture provided by the two hosts, both musicians. Apart from our discussions on various topics, were delightfully surprised at the variety of home-baked breads served at breakfast. Reservations should be made as early as possible to book the...

The Blue Porch Bed and Breakfast is the perfect Brooklyn Retreat. We stayed with Trudy and Paul during a hectic weekend delivering some antique furniture to our daughter who relocated to this lovely Brooklyn neighborhood just a few weeks earlier.

My husband and I recently stayed in the Blue Porch for 3 nights. It was right after the hurricane and even though Trudy & Paul must have had a particularly stressful week in the run up to our stay they were excellent hosts and made us feel right at home. The breakfasts are delicious and they're more than happy to... More
