Mandarin Oriental, New York
Hitting the heights in the heart of the city
Placed atop the Time Warner Center, overlooking Central Park, the Mandarin Oriental offers stunning vistas of the city through floor-to-ceiling windows in its 244 rooms and suites. Within the walls, amenities include Asiate, the hotels’s signature restaurant that serves contemporary American cuisine with an oriental touch, innovative cocktails in the 1930s-themed MObar – such as Bella Pesca (champagne, elderflower liqueur, grapefruit and lychee juice and a splash of Chambord) – and a VIP spa suite with fireplace and private steam and shower.
