Star Service "Room service is always on offer. The Baccarat leaves no detail unnoticed. The staff is efficient yet thorough, and the property is impeccable." Full review
Gayot "This luxury hotel and residence is steps away from The Museum of Modern Art --- an ideal location for a property that is a work of art in and of itself."
Travel + Leisure "Everything here is over-the-top." Full review

The Telegraph9.0

Hideaway Report95.0
"A sophisticated hotel set in the first 12 floors of a 50-story tower conveniently located opposite the Museum of Modern Art." Full review
Fodor's "This polished property provides pure luxury at every corner, from the emphasis on quality service to the glamorous salon and bar filled with fresh flowers where all the drinks are served in Baccarat glassware." Full review
Afar Magazine "The Baccarat Hotel takes its crystal so seriously that it has white-gloved “glass attendants” tending to its champagne flutes, wine glasses, goblets, and more, keeping them sparkling night after night." Full review
Forbes Travel Guide 5 Stars

Rough Guide "The Pierre still drips with luxury, its rooms offering views of Central Park, iPod docks and DVD players, though it’s not quite the palace it was when Salvador Dalí used to stay."
Frommer's "A property of India-based Taj Hotels, the Pierre, along with the St. Regis and the Plaza, is one of New York’s grandest of grand dame hotels." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Inviting service makes this sophisticated and beautifully renovated hotel seem not so intimidating."
Time Out "The Asian influence is reflected in silk bedspreads from Bangalore and contemporary Indian art, but the hotel restaurant is a swanky new Italian spot designed by Adam Tihany, Sirio." Full review
Star Service "White-gloved staff outnumbers guests 3-to-1, the concierge team holds Les Clefs d'Or qualifications, and room service is provided around-the-clock." Full review
BlackBook "Look past the Corsican name, this luxe HQ is running on Indian hospitality. Taj Hotels broke the bank for renovation, keeps the staff to guest ratio at a hefty three to one."
Zagat4.3
""Spoil yourself" at this "swanky" "New York classic", a "quiet place to slip away" that's "beautiful, inside and out" and boasts a "fabulous" location overlooking Central Park."
Forbes Travel Guide 4 Stars
"The gorgeous hand-painted murals are still there (even in the fitness center), but they now share space with Indian artwork, some of which hails from the Taj flagship in Mumbai." Full review
Gayot "You could easily mistake this property for an Old World club rather than a modern luxury hotel." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Pierre-by-Taj refreshes the luxury and exclusivity that have long defined the hotel." Full review
