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."

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."
