Rough Guide
"With the High Line running under it, fabulous views from its rooms and a bevy of trendy food and nightlife options on hand, André Balazs’ Standard Hotel is just about too hip for its own..."
Michelin Guide
"The rooms are the very definition of clean and uncluttered contemporary design sprinkled with the sexy styling of the 1950s."
Concierge
"Despite its location and never-ending buzz, this is one of the city's relatively reasonable hotels, made clear by the unmemorable yet inoffensive Design Within Reach–style decor."
Oyster

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

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."
