Michelin Guide "Perfectly sited on Madison Avenue and surrounded by leading boutiques and galleries, this hotel is equal parts exclusive hideaway and world-class hotel."
Frommer's "This 34-story grande dame towers over Madison Avenue, perfectly epitomizing the old-world, moneyed neighborhood where it stands." Full review
Concierge "The most pedigreed of the Upper East Side hotels, this grande dame opened originally as a residential hotel in 1930, with composer Richard Rodgers as its first occupant."
Fodor's "The Carlyle's fusion of venerable elegance and Manhattan swank calls for the aplomb of entering a Chanel boutique: walk in chin-high, wallet out, and ready to be impressed." Full review
Insight Guides "The great bastion of Old New York caters to royals, politicians, and other elites, housing them in refined Art Deco-inspired guestrooms and pampering them with attentive service."

Fodor's "A New York landmark in brown brick that towers over the New York Public Library and Bryant Park, this sleek hotel is still a Midtown hot spot." Full review

Gayot "A location alone... is enough of a selling point for travelers wishing to be in the center of New York City. But the hotel offers far more appeal than just its address."
BlackBook "Rooms are gorgeous, spacious, comfortably modern and quiet, many with treetop park views."
Zagat3.5
"Tucked in a near-"perfect" location close to Grand Central, this Midtowner puts you "awfully close to where you need to be" and provides "great" views."
