"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."
Michelin Guide
"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."
Concierge
"The suites, while very large, feel corporate."
Lonely Planet
"This steely Upper East Side gem – literally, everything is decorated in silvery shades of grey – is all about luxury."

"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."

"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."
