Rough Guide
Star
"Sets a new standard for bohemian chic."
Michelin Guide
"In the middle of it all, you can quite literally get anywhere from here, but pull up a chair and stay awhile. It's the real deal, nailing that beatnik sensibility, and it even comes with a past."
Fodor's
"The vibe is unstuffy and down-to-earth, making it a popular hangout for creatives and people who work from wherever they lay their laptop." Full review
Insight Guides
"Combine the old-world charm of 1904 surroundings with a boho-chic vibe and what do you get? Hipster heaven."
DK Eyewitness
"The Ace Hotel channels a youthful rock-n-roll vibe: many of the large rooms come with vintage furniture, full-size refrigerator, and even a turntable and guitar."
Time Out
"Bourgeois hipsters tired of crashing on couches will appreciate the New York outpost of the cool chainlet founded in Seattle by a pair of DJs." Full review
Star Service
"This is certainly not the hippest hotel in Manhattan, but it is one with more grit and authenticity than most." Full review
Gayot
"Designed for all types of travelers, this hip hotel offers guests a choice of Bunk, Double, Queen and King rooms in a variety of price ranges and types."
BlackBook
"Rooms run the spectrum of the dollar-lined rainbow: bunk-up to save money, or 700 square feet of trust-fund-bedhead-esque loft space."

"The Soho Grand is a trailblazer and the granddaddy of them all."
Concierge
"With its 2,000-square-foot penthouse lofts, the Soho Grand, the first luxury hotel in SoHo, is still the most dramatic."
Fodor's
"The SoHo Grand defines what SoHo is today—once pioneering, now expensive, and with a vaguely creative vibe." Full review

Upscale
"With chic decor and a youthful, almost-nightly party scene in the lounge, the Soho Grand offers an authentic but accessible taste of the hip downtown scene." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"Designer jeans are de rigueur in the second-floor Grand Bar & Lounge, a giant, fern-garnished corridor with chocolate-leather couches and floor-to-ceiling windows." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Entertainment moguls and celebrities as well keep returning to this boutique favorite."
Jetsetter
"Industrial-chic Soho institution with some of the neighborhood’s best bars." Full review
Time Out
"The Soho Grand, which pioneered the downtown hotel migration in 1996, is fresh from a revamp." Full review
Star Service
"You can attribute its star quality to its spaciousness and astute management. Designers here blend industrial and designer chic." Full review
Gayot
"If you're wondering why there's an antique stone dog trough at the door of this hotel, it's because this industrial-chic property is owned by pet food maker Hartz Mountain."
