Michelin Guide "The hotel is swank on its own terms, offering a thing or two its Manhattan peers would be hard pressed to provide."
Fodor's "One of the hottest openings of 2012–and home to stunning Manhattan-skyline views, locally sourced design touches and amenities, and a hip restaurant." Full review

"With a hopping rooftop bar boasting jaw-dropping views of Manhattan, a wonderful restaurant, and cutting-edge industrial design, the Wythe is a destination unto itself." Full review
Time Out "The Wythe may not be the first boutique hotel in Williamsburg, but it’s the first to capture the neighborhood’s elusive hip factor." Full review
Gayot "Decor elements pay homage to the building's industrial beginnings with cast-iron railings, exposed wood beams and other retro accents."
BlackBook "B-burg boutique in a gutted 1901 cooperage. Seventy-two rooms outfitted with custom wood beds made of recycled pine from the old factory."
Zagat3.3
"It may "look like every other old factory building in the neighborhood", but inside this Williamsburg boutique is "hip and vibrant" with "rustic, modern" stylings."
Condé Nast Traveler92.4

Afar Magazine "A five-year restoration and renovation project transformed a factory on the Williamsburg waterfront, originally built in 1901, into the stylish but laid-back Wythe Hotel." Full review
