When I asked my daughters what they'd like to me say about our stay at Celeste Guest House in Brooklyn, NY, both positive and otherwise, they called out in unison that it was ALL POSITIVE!! We had a great stay there, from the excellent communication before - and after - our trip, to the beautiful rooms, furnishing, location, comfort and overall value of the whole experience. I highly recommend staying at the Celeste Guest House if you're wanting to spread out a bit while visiting New York and feel like you're a member of the community. If you're curious about Brooklyn, it's a great place from which to explore. If you're going into Manhattan, it's a bit of a journey by subway but worth it when you get to stay in such a welcoming environment. Managed by the charming Shahla, you may just want to stay around and talk to her but she knows just how to turn your keys over to you and let you be on your own, available for consultation only if you wish/need that. I hope I can stay there again someday.

We stayed for 7 days in the red apartment and i feld like i had lived here in an former life.

It's a very comfortable place and Shala, the host of the guest house, tried everything to make our stay a real pleasure.
The location lies in an industrial looking but safe place of brooklyn and we didn't feel like tourist but rather than locals.

The neighborhood has very nice restaurants (e.g. "Sidecar"), coffee shops (e.g. "Four and tweentie blackbirds") and is a short 5 minute walk from the next subway station (4th Ave/9th Street).

I really like the charm of Brooklyn and will definitely come back here again.

I stayed in the Aqua Room - top floor for almost two weeks this summer. The space is lovely - open, light, and quiet. It also has air conditioning which was a tremendous relief during the heat wave.

After long days working in Manhattan, the guest house was like a wonderful sanctuary. We spent many evenings in the Park Slope area - lots of great restaurants around - feels like the West Village of Brooklyn. The park itself is also nice for long walks.

Shahla is lovely - helpful, kind and respectful.

I highly recommend it! I will stay there again when the opportunity arises.

My wife and I were first drawn to Celeste Guest House because of its proximity (one block) to our daughter’s apartment, but after we arrived it was obvious that there were other good reasons to stay there. We stayed in the “Red” apartment on the second floor. It is a comfortable apartment with a large living room/kitchenette combination, a separate cozy but adequate bedroom and a bath. Shahla gave us a warm welcome upon our arrival late the first night and was attentive, but not intrusive during our entire stay. Her husband David repaired our malfunctioning television as soon as we requested his help. The neighborhood is not as upscale as Park Slope adjacent to Prospect Park, but it is quiet, comfortable, and within easy walking distance of restaurants, clubs and at least three subway lines. We walked home quite late on multiple evenings and always felt safe. We are already trying to find space on our calendar for another visit this summer to visit our daughter and of course, stay at Celeste Guest House.
