Michelin Guide
"Midtown Manhattan hotels are notorious for their cramped quarters, but The Benjamin bucks the trend with a spectrum of spacious rooms and suites equipped with full galley kitchens."
Frommer's
"All rooms are airy, but the deluxe studios and one-bedroom suites are extra large... If you are a light sleeper, book a room off Lexington Avenue, which can get busy most weeknights and mornings."

"Situated in what was formerly The Setai, this Langham hotel upholds the brand's century-plus tradition of excellence in hospitality and service."

"Miami condo cult drops sixty stories of lux living on Fifth, hands over the reins to Langham Place. Inside, keep thinking big: majority of rooms top 700 square feet."
