More and Maps

Built in 1890 as an office building for John Jacob Astor II, this landmark location was until recently home to shabby lofts for Soho artists. Then it was totally renovated into this impressive luxury boutique hotel. High ceilings and large windows add to the grandeur of each room. It is across the street from the Guggenheim Museum Soho and is near all the galleries of SoHo. It is not far from Greenwich Village, Little Italy and Chinatown as well. The super chic restaurant, The Mercer Kitchen, is located in the basement of the hotel.

Great location, but not such a great hotel ..

The Mercer is an OK hotel. For the price, I wouldn't recommend it at all. The location is great and the restaurant and bar downstairs are great. Service isn't very good and the rooms are so small. I would suggest the Soho Grand or the Thompson Hotel over the Mercer.

Marvelous Time at the Mercer

We decided to spend a romantice weekend in the city and we decided to stay at the Mercer Hotel...we made the right choice. The location was ideal in Soho and our spacious room, that had a fireplace and overlooked the courtyard. Our interesting place to hang out is the below-ground restaurant that featured tasty dishes and a good place to unwind after a long day of shopping and enjoying the sights.

Where the stars stay...

The Mercer is one of those ultra-trendy, uber-styly hot spots that seems to typify NY. If you are a slave to what's hot, you can't miss this hotel. The bathrooms are stocked with Face Stockholm products and it's located steps from all the great Soho shopping. The rooms are beautiful, nicely furnished; they don't have any of that "hotel" feel. It's more like you're staying with your ultra-stylish friend who happens to live in one of the coolest pads in town.
