LOVED The Manchester!
Really loved the ambiance and style! My husband and I stayed at The Manchester as home base for a weekend of bourbon adventures. Staff was great. Loved the bars and had a delicious Saturday brunch at the restaurant. Room was a little cramped, but otherwise cozy and exactly what we needed. Would stay here again in a heart beat.

BEST HOTEL IN YEARS
Impeccable experience! We felt like we were staying in the highest caliber hotel in New York. Every attention to detail was made-- beautiful hotel with gorgeous rooms (real wood for once-- not that cheap faux wood), friendly staff-- too many good things to say. Will definitely come back again.

Best of Lexington
I stay at The Manchester almost monthly and it never disappoints. Valet staff are always friendly and attentive. Same with front desk. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Obsessed with the bathrooms.

Great stay!
This is a very nice boutique hotel- very well designed. It smells amazing. I was very happy with everything. I slept really well- the bed and pillows were comfortable. It was very clean. The restaurant was pretty good, albeit a little pricey. The only thing I didn't love is the rain shower- I'm just not a fan of a showerhead right above your head. I prefer an angled one, but this is just a personal preference.
