"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

Gayot
"The real draw here is the collection of 249 luxury rooms and suites that feature high ceilings, Juliet balconies and five-fixture bathrooms."

DK Eyewitness
"A stylish option for those with a little more to spend, and the amenities make it worth the price – free breakfast, all-day serve-yourself coffee and treats, and a DVD library."
Star Service
