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."
Insight Guides "A converted 1890s landmark building right in the heart of Soho, the Mercer's rooms feature high loft ceilings, arched windows, and (for New York) spacious bath facilities."
Time Out "Opened in 2001 by trendsetting hotelier André Balazs, the Mercer still has ample attractions that appeal to a celeb-heavy clientele." Full review

Rough Guide "Frequented by celebrities, this handsome pair of 1834 brownstones ranks as one of the most exclusive guesthouses in the city."
Michelin Guide "Luckily, you don't need a dowry to taste the high life; a reservation at the Inn at Irving Place works just fine. It is the age of elegance here, where a dainty dozen accommodations await guests."
Frommer's "This 170-year-old town house offers antique charm more easily found in the Berkshires than in the heart of what used to be Silicon Alley." Full review
Concierge "More country than town, the two 1834 brownstones near Gramercy Park at East 17th Street that house this 12-room inn are all 19th-century charm."
Fodor's "Fantasies of Old New York... spring to life at this discreet, romantic inn." Full review
Insight Guides "Those in search of cutting-edge style will do well to look elsewhere, but the antiques-filled milieu... and personalized service will suit any traveler looking to indulge in gentler times."
Lonely Planet "Richly Victorian, this intimate and exquisite 11-room red-brick townhouse dates from 1834 and is stuffed with period pieces and rosy patterns of days past."
OysterUpscale
"Thorough attention to detail and old-world charm set this quaint boutique hotel apart." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Two adjoining town houses comprise this unassuming Victorian inn, housed in an 1834 brownstone just south of historic Gramercy Park." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Edith Wharton would be proud of these antique brownstones buildings, run impeccably as a luxury inn."
