"This address on Thompson Street has long been part of boutique-hotel history, but The Manner is a fresh start, both for this neighborhood and for its parent company, Standard International. There’s no trace of the minimalist look that used to rule Downtown hotels, nor of its beige cousin “quiet luxury.” Instead you’ll find colorful and richly textured interiors, and an atmosphere that calls to mind a particularly glamorous residence. It’s more discreet than opulent, though its ground-floor restaurant and its swanky cocktail bar are bound to attract attention." - Tablet Hotels
