Frommer's "Tamer than its Meatpacking District older sister, Gansevoort Meatpacking Hotel, the Gansevoort Park, which opened in 2010, still retains much of big sister’s cool glamour feel." Full review
Concierge "It all feels Miami by way of Madison Avenue, with a bar scene that bumps accordingly."
Fodor's "A downtown-hip hotel on the edge of lower Midtown, the Gansevoort Park improves upon its hard-living Meatpacking District sibling by several degrees." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Attracting a steady flow of celebrities... this NoMad... hotel is within easy walking distance of Union Square, the Theatre District, and the Empire State Building." Full review
Time Out "The sleek rooms feature modern metal four-posters or silver satin headboards, plush sofas and saucy retro images by British photographer Deborah Anderson." Full review
Star Service "It certainly draws from the same stylish crowd of young professionals intent on living the good life, as expressed by the hotel's rooftop party scene.

Gayot "The real draw here is the collection of 249 luxury rooms and suites that feature high ceilings, Juliet balconies and five-fixture bathrooms."
BlackBook "MePa pioneer branched out to Park Avenue. Slick glass building picks up some of the original's trademarks, like light effects, lux spa, and pool up on the sceney roof deck."

""Live it up" at this "hip, cool" boutique -- sister of the famed Meatpacking District option -- that brings the "feel-good" vibe to Midtown with "modern" decor in the atrium lobby."
Not For Tourists "Stay like a VIP: Rooftop pool, gorgeous rooms, and Park Ave."

Michelin Guide "The Soho Grand is a trailblazer and the granddaddy of them all."
Concierge "With its 2,000-square-foot penthouse lofts, the Soho Grand, the first luxury hotel in SoHo, is still the most dramatic."
Fodor's "The SoHo Grand defines what SoHo is today—once pioneering, now expensive, and with a vaguely creative vibe." Full review
OysterUpscale
"With chic decor and a youthful, almost-nightly party scene in the lounge, the Soho Grand offers an authentic but accessible taste of the hip downtown scene." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Designer jeans are de rigueur in the second-floor Grand Bar & Lounge, a giant, fern-garnished corridor with chocolate-leather couches and floor-to-ceiling windows." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Entertainment moguls and celebrities as well keep returning to this boutique favorite."
Jetsetter "Industrial-chic Soho institution with some of the neighborhood’s best bars." Full review
Time Out "The Soho Grand, which pioneered the downtown hotel migration in 1996, is fresh from a revamp." Full review
Star Service "You can attribute its star quality to its spaciousness and astute management. Designers here blend industrial and designer chic." Full review
Gayot "If you're wondering why there's an antique stone dog trough at the door of this hotel, it's because this industrial-chic property is owned by pet food maker Hartz Mountain."
