Rough Guide "Frequented by celebrities, this handsome pair of 1834 brownstones ranks as one of the most exclusive guesthouses in the city."
Michelin Guide "Luckily, you don't need a dowry to taste the high life; a reservation at the Inn at Irving Place works just fine. It is the age of elegance here, where a dainty dozen accommodations await guests."
Frommer's "This 170-year-old town house offers antique charm more easily found in the Berkshires than in the heart of what used to be Silicon Alley." Full review
Concierge "More country than town, the two 1834 brownstones near Gramercy Park at East 17th Street that house this 12-room inn are all 19th-century charm."
Fodor's "Fantasies of Old New York... spring to life at this discreet, romantic inn." Full review
Insight Guides "Those in search of cutting-edge style will do well to look elsewhere, but the antiques-filled milieu... and personalized service will suit any traveler looking to indulge in gentler times."
Lonely Planet "Richly Victorian, this intimate and exquisite 11-room red-brick townhouse dates from 1834 and is stuffed with period pieces and rosy patterns of days past."

Rough Guide ""Designed by architect David Rockwell, Chambers is well-placed for Central Park and MoMA visits, though you can just sit and admire the 500 original works of art in its gallery-sized..."
Michelin Guide "The rooms and suites wed a modern and industrial style that may feel like home to some and a warehouse to others."
Concierge "A far more overt attempt than the subtler City Club to bring downtown style to midtown, this 77-room hotel owes its soul to art, with 500 contemporary works exhibited throughout the hotel."
Lonely Planet "Its 77 rooms are simple yet elegant, with plush cushions on wood-frame beds, and concrete-floor bathrooms featuring giant showerheads." Full review
OysterUpscale
"Between the contemporary art (even in the guest rooms) and the high-design lobby, this lovely boutique feels as much like a SoHo gallery as a hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A little downtown style livens up this strip of midtown with a sleek design. The smallish rooms feature original modern art, Frette bathrobes, and cashmere throws."
Time Out "Though it opened in 2001, Chambers has a contemporary residential style that feels utterly current." Full review
Star Service "Three blocks south of Central Park, this posh hotel pays homage to high fashion and contemporary art, and is something of a secret among those who value its serene bearing." Full review
Gayot "Situated in the heart of the Fifth Avenue shopping district, this narrow fourteen-story hotel is filled with more than 500 pieces of original art."
Zagat3.5
"For "seclusion and serenity in the middle of a concrete jungle", repeat visitors rely on this "design-oriented" Midtowner that's "conveniently" located off Fifth Avenue."
