I've been to New York a couple of times before and always wanted to stay at The Mercer, so this time we did. I was not disappointed, it was absolutely fantastic! Firstly, our main reason for visiting NY was for a shopping weekend, and my favourite shopping area is Soho, Greenwich Village, West Village, NoLita etc ... this hotel is... more

Just spent another 4 nights at The Mercer to celebrate Mother's Day with my daughter. I had the least expensive room that has double doors to the courtyard. Loved it since I prefer quiet to views. This year I reserved the same courtyard room, but asked for the room same level as the courtyard patio and they accommodated me, which... more

Great location Nice atmosphere Not too big Pleasant rooms and facilities in a great location Great video selection Best mini bar! ........... But I am being generous stating that staff attitude is moderate (i.e. reception/concierge not room service). They seem to care more about 'celebrities' than mere mortals which is plain dumb. We are all paying the same aren’t we?... more

This is a great property. I'm usually a bit skeptical of "trendy" boutique properties as the style usually comes at the expense of good service. This property does a good job of playing it cool while still providing good service. The rooms are small but reasonable by NY standards. The complementary mini-bar is a great amenity. The location could not... more

My husband and I went to New York for a special celebration and stayed at the Mercer. It was the perfect spot for a special time. The room was great (we stayed in the room with the Huge tub). The staff could not have been more helpful. Even though there were a couple of high profile celebs staying there at... more

We last stayed at The Mercer in January 2008 and were immediately impressed by the concept, food, staff and style of the Hotel. We were still impressed on our latest visit but wondered if more recent additions to the New York Hotel scene were offering a better experience. Out of curiosity we visited 60 Thompson and asked to view a... more

We spent 6 nights at The Mercer in October 2008 and here are the comments on this stay: - Great location one block away from Broadway on Mercer and Prince streets, two minutes from Prince Street underground station. - Very nice neighbourhood with very few high-rises, but ‘end of the 19th century’ some five to six floor brown brick buildings... more

Stayed at The Mercer last month on business and was impressed by the friendly and helpful staff. I arrived without my luggage (delayed by 30 hours) and was immediately given a wide range of amenities and suggestions for nearby shops for essentials (they'd even negotiated a 10 percent discount at J Crew next door for hotel guests who'd lost their... more

We just loved this hotel! Everything was better than expected - from the location right in the heart of Soho, to the chic decor, to the ambiance, to the attentiveness of the staff (not too little or too much) to all the room extras - no charge for most of the honor bar items (except the alcohol of course). And... more
