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

"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

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."

"The Plaza has come back from its hiatus looking better than ever."
Michelin Guide "The esteemed Plaza is neck and neck with the Waldorf-Astoria in the race for New York's most recognizable hotel."
Fodor's "Eloise's adopted home on the corner of Central Park, the Plaza is one of New York's most storied hotels, hosting all manner of dignitaries, moneymakers, and royalty." Full review
Lonely Planet "Suitably set in a landmark French Renaissance-style building, its 282 guestrooms are a suitably regal affair, with sumptuous Louis XV-style furniture and 24-carat gold-plated bathroom faucets." Full review

"The exceptional spa and 24-hour butler service make it worth the splurge." Full review
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."
Time Out "The opulent vibe extends to the bathrooms, which feature mosaic baths, 24-carat gold-plated sink fittings and even chandeliers—perhaps to make the foreign royals feel at home." Full review
Star Service "Guests here enjoy housekeeping service twice daily, same-day laundry and dry cleaning, round-the-clock room service, babysitting, and a liberal pet policy." Full review
Gayot "The conversion of some of its guest rooms into residences aside, The Plaza has been and continues to be quintessential New York City."
