  • Grand Bar & Salon serves all-day American cuisine and rare whiskeys; reservations via Resy.
  • Soho Diner operates 24 hours; Club Room offers live jazz and late-night cocktails.
  • Seasonal outdoor Gilligan’s opens in summer for island-inspired seafood and pizzas.

Pick Soho Grand when you want multiple on-site choices and late-night dining and entertainment.

  • Sartiano's serves Italian cuisine with alfresco dining options and a bar/lounge.
  • 24-hour room service available; cooked-to-order breakfast offered for a surcharge.
  • A quieter, more restrained food-and-drink scene compared with larger hotel venues.

The Mercer suits guests who prefer a single well-regarded restaurant and a quieter dining experience.

Signature amenity: events & nightlife vs quiet service

Soho Grand Hotel – Signature amenity

Soho Grand’s standout feature is its event and nightlife program across multiple venues.

  • Club Room for live jazz and late-night events; multiple event spaces including Gallery and penthouse lofts.
  • Large capacities for receptions and weddings; indoor and outdoor options.
  • Frequent programming makes the hotel a downtown social hub.

Soho Grand is the better choice if hotel-based nightlife or hosting events matters to you.

The Mercer – Signature amenity

The Mercer’s signature is its discreet, calm service and a focus on guest privacy.

  • Concierge and limo/town car services available; quieter public spaces.
  • Smaller meeting/meeting-room capacity (1 meeting room listed) and fewer public venues.
  • Emphasis on understated, design-led guest experience rather than in-house nightlife.

The Mercer is preferable for travelers who want calm, private service over in-hotel entertainment.

Wellness & nightlife: fitness, spa and after-dark options

Soho Grand Hotel – Wellness & nightlife

Soho Grand offers a 24-hour fitness center but no on-site spa; nightlife is a major draw.

  • Third-floor fitness center open 24 hours with Technogym equipment and Peloton bikes.
  • No on-site spa; guests are directed to partner/sister property services for salon treatments.
  • Nightlife includes Club Room live jazz and late-night dining; hotel programming often runs into the evening.

Good for guests who want a gym and active evening scene, but not for those who need an on-site spa.

The Mercer – Wellness & nightlife

The Mercer lists on-site spa services and massages and offers a quieter after-dark atmosphere.

  • Spa services and on-site massages are available (reservations usually required).
  • Fitness options include a health club and access to nearby fitness facilities.
  • Evenings are low-key compared with Soho Grand; the hotel’s bar/lounge is restrained.

The Mercer is a better fit if on-site spa treatments and a low-key evening are priorities.
