Rough Guide
"If a large sum of money ever comes your way, rent a whole floor here and live-in permanently (many of the guests do) – the stunning views of Central Park are worth it."

"The Sherry is a stately part of the New York landscape so it may come as a surprise to learn that it's essentially a tall, luxurious apartment building that also has 50 hotel rooms and suites." Full review

"The Sherry-Netherland is one of New York’s grand dames." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"Room 211: this large room, with crystal chandeliers, brocade upholstery, and a separate seating area, overlooks General Motors Plaza but it's hear-a-pin-drop quiet, thanks to double-paneled windows." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"A little less stuffy than next-door neighbor The Pierre, this old-world style hotel defines residential living in New York City. Suites are enormous, and the service is top-of-the-class."
Star Service
"More than most in its class, this place gives guests the feeling of being a moneyed local, one who can revel in the gilt-ridden faded Continental style.

"In case the red coat- and top hat-wearing doormen haven't convinced you, the crackling fireplace and clubby interiors will certainly encourage you to sit and relax awhile."

"Entertainment industry folk have been flocking to the Bowery Hotel since its opening last spring. And it's no wonder... this stretch of the Lower East Side is quickly shedding its infamous grit."
Fodor's
"Gemma, the expansive and cozy Italian restaurant that's part of the hotel, completes the Bowery's insular, yet cushy vibe." Full review
Lonely Planet
"Rooms have huge factory windows with unobstructed views, simple white spreads with red piping, and elegant four-poster beds." Full review

"The Bowery Hotel redefines class in a gentrified downtown neighborhood where punk rock and squalor once ruled." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"Hoteliers Sean MacPherson and Eric Goode—the team behind New York’s Maritime Hotel—are breathing new life into Manhattan’s once-desolate Bowery with their 135-room Bowery Hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"An opulent 17-story hotel, it features lobby fireplaces and wood-paneled elevators, floor-to-ceiling windows in every room, and seven rooms with private terraces, hot tubs, and outdoor showers."
Time Out
"This fanciful boutique hotel from prominent hospitality duo Eric Goode and Sean MacPherson is the capstone in the gentrification of the Bowery." Full review
Star Service
"This hotel looks like it could have been a stage set from Gangs of New York, a retro-boho Victorian throw-down that definitely effuses its own style." Full review
Gayot
"The surrounding area may feel more modern --- and far more chichi -- than it has in past years, but inside old NYC comes alive."
