"The James was a ground-up new construction hotel that is imbued with the artistic spirit that has made SoHo world famous."
"A rooftop outdoor pool and an urban garden and herb garden off the second floor lobby add to the James’s appeal." Full review
"A favorite of creative-types, businesspeople, fashionistas, and deep-pocketed regular Joes, the James, right on the edge of SoHo, never sacrifices comfort for style." Full review
"The James plays with a variety of architectural elements in each of the hotel’s different spaces, and somehow they all seem to work beautifully." Full review
"Opened in September, 2010, this Modernist addition to SoHo has a permanent art collection and 114 rooms with natural linen bedding and reclaimed-wood floors." Full review
"Instead of merely replicating a successful formula, the owners have given the property a distinctly Gotham vibe—even the door staff sports rakish uniforms." Full review
"On the southern edge of SoHo, just north of Canal Street, this Chicago import has done a better job than most melding into its boho-chic neighborhood, thanks to a localist approach." Full review
"Perhaps The James' emphasis on green got to us. Even the small standard rooms here feel very bring-the-outside-in at this hot boutique hotel."
"Soho border spot a walled city of chic, topped with lux rooms and a swinging rooftop cocktail/pool scene at Johnny Swet's Jimmy."
3.3
"Gushing guests "absolutely love the views" from the "amazing" rooftop pool and bar at this "modern" SoHo high-rise, a "favorite" thanks to the "spacious", "calming" quarters."

Upscale
"Gild Hall is far hipper than your average Wall Street business hotel." Full review
"This luxury hotel boasts, among other features, a bi-level private library, an elegant champagne bar, a modern English tavern, and über-sleek guest rooms."
"The lodgelike lobby reflects the group's luxury aesthetic with leather sofas, a faux antler chandelier and photographs by the late society lensman Slim Aarons." Full review
"Tailored to its clientele, it features a rustic, masculine ambience, a place to loosen the tie after a day of trading in the pits and braving Wall Street protestors." Full review
"It's hard not to feel hip inside this Thompson Hotel outpost, located in a quiet and shadowy corner of the financial district where cobblestones still line the street."
"Petit Trianon to the Versailles that is Wall Street. Chic-sleep Thompson crew does another stylish stunner, fully exorcising Holiday Inn ghosts and wallpapers."
3.5
"Tucked "off-the-beaten-path" near Wall Street, this boutique hotel is "tastefully decorated with Western flair" and offers "spacious" digs."
