No title - expert review The Pierre is the dream-come-true of the legendary French chef, Charles Pierre Casalasco. This European-style luxury hotel on New York's Fifth Avenue opened in 1930, and was immediately hailed as a monument of beauty and one of the most majestic structures in all New York. Overlooking Central Park, ... elegantsmallhotel.com
No title - expert review The Pierre, once the jewel in the crown of the Four Seasons group, is now part of an Indian luxury chain called Taj. The Pierre's landmark building owes a lot to the Palace of Versailles, with chandeliers, murals depicting putti, and Corinthian columns in the Rotunda lounge. Chintz and dark wood ado... fodors.com
No title - expert review The rest of New York may be supercharged and up-to-the-minute, but within the '30s-era walls of this classic, it's still an earlier, more gracious time. Rooms, some of them former apartments, are spacious and residential in feel, the wood-paneled elevators still have welcoming, uniformed operators a... forbestraveler.com
No title - expert review This elegant hotel is the one to choose if you're looking for luxurious surroundings and impeccable service in the heart of Atlanta's cultural area. Built in 1991 as the Grand Hotel Atlanta, it was acquired in 1998 by Four Seasons, who immediately gave ... frommers.com
No title - expert review You could easily mistake this hotel for an Old World club rather than a New World luxury hotel. When it opened in 1930, a guidebook described it as beautiful, gorgeous, distinctive, catering only to those of refined tastes who can afford the best in the way of hotel luxury. This is as true today as ... gayot.com

We will not be back - user review Having stayed at the Ritz and Mandarin Oriental, I thought that we should give The Pierre a try, I understand it is an old hotel, but there is no excuse for musty smelling rooms, and the lack of modern comforts one would expect at a $600 a night hotel. If they want to compete with the big boys (Ritz... fodors.com
PURE LUXURY! - user review I just stayed here with a good friend and was amazed that a hotel would take such good care of it's guests. Yes, it's expensive, but a hotel like this has the right to be. A high staff to guest ratio, and out of this world dining. They even have a Rolls Royce to drive guests around in. Now this is l... fodors.com
Really Overpriced - user review I would say that a king bed room here should cost about $300 a night, however the hotel charges MASSIVE prices for rooms that are no better than the Waldorf or Essex House. Just like the previous post said, for $650 each night, the rooms ne... fodors.com
Love the Pierre - user review My wife and I have stayed here on several occasions, and have always been treated like royalty. The rooms are on the small side, but I think that is part of the charm of this hotel. Eveything is first class, the restaurant, concierge service, and they even ... fodors.com
Needs a renovation! - user review Part of the charm of The Pierre is the fact that it's an old world style hotel. And I agree that is part of what makes it a unique experience, but the city has other hotels which are similar and can mix old world style and modern technology. The Ritz Carlton and The Peninsula are two that come to mi... fodors.com
Great service under new management - user review The Pierre which is now operated by the exclusive Taj Hotels is still on top of it's game. The white gloved elevator attendants, the wonderful concierge, everything has remained the same since Four Seasons sold it. They offer a good weekend rate of $455, which is not bad considering how posh this ho... fodors.com
Nice Hotel but bring $$$ - user review This hotel is nice, but everything is very costly, even by New York standards. $40 a person for breakfast, $60 for parking, a bottle of soda from room service was $8, now that is highway robbery. These high prices on top of the $1,000 a night charge for a one bedroom suite. But this is New York so I... fodors.com
NOTE: No Longer a Four Seasons Hotel - user review This Hotel is now the first US property for a Indian Hotel Group (TAJ). It is no longer managed by the venerable F... fodors.com
Old World Charm & Luxury - user review This hotel is so unique, I hope it does not go condo like the Stanhope or The Plaza. The uniformed doormen are soooo classy, and the staff is supposed to be among the top hotel staff in the country and maybe the world. Rates are high (my room was $605.00 a night) All in all, a great place to stay if... fodors.com
Very Classy - user review This is a formal hotel, not for families or teens. Everything has that old world elegance feel to it, which I like, but turns some people off. All depends on you're specific taste. An boudoir room with a view of the park will set you back $800 a nig... fodors.com
Disappointing - user review This was without any doubt the worst four seasons hotel that I have stayed at. The rooms were not ready when we checked in (and we checked in well after 4 pm) and, on one occasion, we waited over an hour for room service. As for the rooms, despite being very clean and well maintained, they were on t... fodors.com
Very Overpriced! - user review We stayed in one of the park view rooms and for $655 a night we expected alot more. The room was a little worn, noticeable stains on the carpet and chairs. Service was hit or miss, some of the staff were not helpful if you are dressed in jeans. All in all, we left with the feeling that we did not ge... fodors.com
