Rough Guide Star
"The Plaza has come back from its hiatus looking better than ever."
Michelin Guide "The esteemed Plaza is neck and neck with the Waldorf-Astoria in the race for New York's most recognizable hotel."
Fodor's "Eloise's adopted home on the corner of Central Park, the Plaza is one of New York's most storied hotels, hosting all manner of dignitaries, moneymakers, and royalty." Full review
Lonely Planet "Suitably set in a landmark French Renaissance-style building, its 282 guestrooms are a suitably regal affair, with sumptuous Louis XV-style furniture and 24-carat gold-plated bathroom faucets." Full review

"The exceptional spa and 24-hour butler service make it worth the splurge." Full review
Travel + Leisure "For a European-palace-style experience, this is the only game in town." Full review
DK Eyewitness "New York’s 1907 Grande Dame has emerged from a $400-million face-lift agleam with Baccarat chandeliers, vast expanses of marble, and large, luxurious rooms."
Time Out "The opulent vibe extends to the bathrooms, which feature mosaic baths, 24-carat gold-plated sink fittings and even chandeliers—perhaps to make the foreign royals feel at home." Full review
Star Service "Guests here enjoy housekeeping service twice daily, same-day laundry and dry cleaning, round-the-clock room service, babysitting, and a liberal pet policy." Full review
Gayot "The conversion of some of its guest rooms into residences aside, The Plaza has been and continues to be quintessential New York City."

Michelin Guide "The Hotel on Rivington, a 21-story gleaming glass tower, is the haute hippie's hotel of choice."
Concierge "The design here is in sync with the area's other new tenants: monochromatic and modern, with floor-to-ceiling transparent walls that allow the city streets to become part of the design."
Fodor's "This glass-walled hotel on the Lower East Side is still a go-to choice, especially if being in the thick of the neighborhood's nightlife and dining action is a priority." Full review
Insight Guides "Guests who wish to enjoy the nearby clubs and restaurants can surround themselves with chic style and, from the upper floors, movie-worthy views of the city."
Lonely Planet "The ‘unique’ rooms have enviable views over the East River and downtown’s sprawl, along with hanging flat-screen TVs." Full review
Oyster Upscale
"The Hotel on Rivington is a secretive hot spot for well-heeled travelers who like their neighborhoods cool and their thread counts high." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A high-design (and high-profile) herald of change in a once-grubby neighborhood, the glass-façaded Rivington soars above the old brick tenements of the Lower East Side." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Even the glass-enclosed showers have a view in this chic, 21-story tower offering oversize rooms with floor-toceiling windows and a 360-degree vista."
Time Out "Rooms are super-sleek and minimalist, with black-and-white decorative touches, Frette bed linen and robes, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer views of Manhattan and beyond." Full review
Gayot "The public spaces are futuristic to the point of Space Age. But, worry not, that doesn't mean the hotel is in any way cold."
