Michelin Guide "The Mercer stood out from the crowd and inspired plenty of copycats. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but there's still only one Mercer hotel."
Frommer's "Once inside, there is a pronounced calm... The hotel is a perfect complement to the scene outside your big window." Full review
Concierge "You never know who you're going to see at the Mercer or what you'll see them do."
Fodor's "The Mercer is superbly situated in the heart of SoHo's myriad name-brand stores, although you wouldn't know it once you're inside the lobby, a minimalist oasis." Full review
Lonely Planet "Right in the heart of SoHo’s brick lanes, the grand Mercer is where stars sleep." Full review
OysterLuxury

Travel + Leisure "The Mercer's six floor Romanesque-revival style building is a landmark of SoHo." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This discreet boutique property comes at luxury prices, and celebrities seeking a bit more privacy have made this their choice."

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."
