Rough Guide Star
"This hotel really lives up to its claims of sophistication and elegance."
Michelin Guide "The exterior reads Upper East Side formality, but inside, this hotel screams exuberance."
Frommer's "There is nothing not to like here, with the exception of the steep rates: this kind of luxury does not come cheap." Full review
Concierge "An haute hideaway on Manhattan's Upper East Side since 1927, the venerable Mark reopened last fall with a radical new look, trading in its erstwhile French pedigree for Parisian pop."
Fodor's "If you took every Upper East Side real estate fantasy and condensed it into a modern hotel, you'd come up with the Mark." Full review
Oyster Luxury
"The Mark, an historic hotel built in 1927, re-opened in 2009 as one of the best contemporary luxury hotels in New York." Full review
Jetsetter "Grande dame turned design glamazon with a Jean-Georges Vongerichten restaurant and hot bar." Full review
Star Service "On the corner of Madison Avenue at 77th Street, this rather showy Upper East Side (UES) address has settled into its revamp, but still manages to create a buzz." Full review
Gayot "The exterior may be classic Upper East Side elegance, but peek through the front door, and within a second, you'll understand that there's more to this hotel than first meets the eye."
BlackBook "Grand Hotel nods and general ‘30s Paris vibe. Subtle and serene, marked by discreet, attentive service."
