Frommer's "Tamer than its Meatpacking District older sister, Gansevoort Meatpacking Hotel, the Gansevoort Park, which opened in 2010, still retains much of big sister’s cool glamour feel." Full review
Concierge "It all feels Miami by way of Madison Avenue, with a bar scene that bumps accordingly."
Fodor's "A downtown-hip hotel on the edge of lower Midtown, the Gansevoort Park improves upon its hard-living Meatpacking District sibling by several degrees." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Attracting a steady flow of celebrities... this NoMad... hotel is within easy walking distance of Union Square, the Theatre District, and the Empire State Building." Full review
Time Out "The sleek rooms feature modern metal four-posters or silver satin headboards, plush sofas and saucy retro images by British photographer Deborah Anderson." Full review
Star Service "It certainly draws from the same stylish crowd of young professionals intent on living the good life, as expressed by the hotel's rooftop party scene.

Gayot "The real draw here is the collection of 249 luxury rooms and suites that feature high ceilings, Juliet balconies and five-fixture bathrooms."
BlackBook "MePa pioneer branched out to Park Avenue. Slick glass building picks up some of the original's trademarks, like light effects, lux spa, and pool up on the sceney roof deck."

Rough Guide "You’re really paying for the 360-degree views, the full spa, the heated rooftop pool (one of very few in the city) and the scene."
Michelin Guide "Their striking rooms and attractive suites show off a thoroughly modern vibe with an understated luxury."
Frommer's "Despite its potentially excessive trendiness, the 14-floor, zinc-colored Gansevoort offers excellent, personable service." Full review
Fodor's "Though the nearby Standard New York has stolen some of its thunder, there's plenty to draw guests to this chic Meatpacking District pioneer... a superb choice for urban poolside lounging." Full review

"This 187-room Meatpacking District hotel is more than its lauded rooftop pool." Full review
Travel + Leisure "With 187 rooms and 23 suites, the Hotel Gansevoort is a stylish resort located in New York’s Meatpacking District." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A 45-ft (13.5-m) rooftop pool and Ono, an indoor-outdoor restaurant, are among the features that draw models and celebrities to this sleek, high-rise addition to the hip Meatpacking District."
Time Out "By day, you can soak up the sun, and the Hudson River panorama, on a lounger by the 45-foot heated open-air pool." Full review
BlackBook "Glowing glass beacon in the Meatpacking District. Proof that New York can do Sunset Boulevard. Rooftop bar and pool attracts all varieties of social barnacles."
Zagat3.5
"An "unbeatable" rooftop pool and bar, where "party people" play and take in "beautiful" views, is the "crown jewel" of this "young, trendy" boutique hotel."
