Frommer's "This hideaway in New York's most elegant neighborhood (the stretch of Madison Ave. in the 60s) is elegant, luxurious, and oozing with sophistication." Full review
Concierge "The quintessential Upper East Side residential nest, this collection of 149 rooms and suites is decorated with Asian and European silks, framed prints, and striped drapes."
Fodor's "Positioned unobtrusively by Central Park on the Upper East Side, the Plaza Athénée... makes stellar service a priority." Full review
Travel + Leisure "One of the few independent hotels left in Manhattan, this 142-room bijou is cherished by Europeans (and savvy celebrities) for its intimacy and attentive staff." Full review
Star Service "More than a quarter of the rooms are elegant suites and studios, with the decadent and panoramic Terrace Suites among the city's most sought-after accommodations. " Full review

Zagat4.0
"The "impeccable" service at this "upscale" (but "not snooty") Upper Eastsider "distinguishes it from other hotels" thanks to "excellent" staffers who make sure "every request is taken care of"."
Forbes Travel Guide 4 Stars
"The exclusive hotel blends seamlessly with the ritzy residential neighborhood just off of Central Park, and staff has plenty of experience assisting celebrity clientele." Full review
Gayot "While the opulence of this time-honored enclave makes it appear suitable only for royalty, mere mortals --- or rather, well-heeled commoners --- are heartily welcomed."
Jetsetter "Classic Upper East Side boutique famous for its European grandeur, detail-oriented service, and celebrity clientele one block from Central Park." Full review

Michelin Guide "In case the red coat- and top hat-wearing doormen haven't convinced you, the crackling fireplace and clubby interiors will certainly encourage you to sit and relax awhile."
Concierge "Entertainment industry folk have been flocking to the Bowery Hotel since its opening last spring. And it's no wonder... this stretch of the Lower East Side is quickly shedding its infamous grit."
Fodor's "Gemma, the expansive and cozy Italian restaurant that's part of the hotel, completes the Bowery's insular, yet cushy vibe." Full review
Lonely Planet "Rooms have huge factory windows with unobstructed views, simple white spreads with red piping, and elegant four-poster beds." Full review
OysterUpscale
"The Bowery Hotel redefines class in a gentrified downtown neighborhood where punk rock and squalor once ruled." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Hoteliers Sean MacPherson and Eric Goode—the team behind New York’s Maritime Hotel—are breathing new life into Manhattan’s once-desolate Bowery with their 135-room Bowery Hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "An opulent 17-story hotel, it features lobby fireplaces and wood-paneled elevators, floor-to-ceiling windows in every room, and seven rooms with private terraces, hot tubs, and outdoor showers."
Time Out "This fanciful boutique hotel from prominent hospitality duo Eric Goode and Sean MacPherson is the capstone in the gentrification of the Bowery." Full review
Star Service "This hotel looks like it could have been a stage set from Gangs of New York, a retro-boho Victorian throw-down that definitely effuses its own style." Full review
Gayot "The surrounding area may feel more modern --- and far more chichi -- than it has in past years, but inside old NYC comes alive."
