"The interior is a showcase for contemporary design; standard “salons” (rooms) have been beautifully furnished with ornate carpets, hand-crafted wardrobes and funky, modern desks."

"The Surrey's location may be knee deep in the old-monied world of the Upper East Side, but its quietly elegant flair is as new as a spring lamb."

"Set among town houses between Madison and Fifth avenues, the Surrey has always reeked of classic Upper East Side elegance."

"The suites, while very large, feel corporate."

"This steely Upper East Side gem – literally, everything is decorated in silvery shades of grey – is all about luxury."
