At the heart of the city, in Manhattan's iconic Crown Building, Aman New York strikes a balance between luxury lifestyle and Zen oasis. 83 contemporary suites delight with understated Asian design, while the huge spa could pamper its guests for days with state-of-the-art facilities and treatments. A traditional Italian restaurant, a Japanese gourmet temple, and the underground jazz club provide culinary delights and evening entertainment. On the doorstep, the legendary Fifth Avenue invites you to indulge in extensive shopping, and Central Park beckons with idyllic walks. Experience the city that never sleeps at its most beautiful.
You will find well-deserved relaxation in the brand's beautiful, Asian-inspired flagship spa. Spread over three floors and an impressive 25,000 square meters, you can expect first-class wellness treatments and state-of-the-art facilities, including full-body cryotherapy and an infrared detox sauna. The gym impresses with futuristic equipment for your individual workout, after which you can relax your muscles in the twenty-meter pool. Just as first-class as its offerings is the hotel's location—perfect for shopping trips to the luxury boutiques along Fifth Avenue. Just a few blocks away is the southern end of Central Park, which should be on every New York bucket list. Whether you want to see a Broadway musical, visit the Met Opera, or explore the famous MoMA, the concierge is always happy to help with all your arrangements.
The subtle, luxurious Japanese flair also prevails in the hotel's 83 suites: the walls are adorned with beautiful washi paper pictures, while the bathrooms feature high-tech Japanese toilets, huge egg-shaped bathtubs, and organic sliding doors. Soothing brown and beige tones and minimalist but perfectly arranged decorative elements contribute to a relaxing Zen feeling. A modern slate board by the bed allows you to control all the electronics in the room—from your Netflix account to the temperature to the blinds. With a large dining area, a living room with a fireplace, and generous views of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street, the Aman Suite is the largest and most comfortable suite in the hotel.
Under the direction of former Aman Venice chef Dario Ossolo, the Italian restaurant Arva serves a lavish breakfast featuring every classic imaginable, followed by a straightforward, rustic menu that pays tribute to Italy's culinary traditions. At the Japanese restaurant Nama, on the other hand, you can enjoy artfully arranged sushi platters, charcoal-grilled fish, and first-class Wagyu dishes. Snacks and light meals are available at any time in the elegant lounge bar or on the garden terrace. In the evening, the underground jazz club is a hotspot, not only for hotel guests—the exquisite martinis and tasteful live music are a fitting tribute to the glamour of the Golden Twenties.
The magnificent Aman New York is the luxury brand's first location on the East Coast and only its third in the United States. In the impressive Crown Building, once home to the world-famous Museum of Modern Art, decadent New York lifestyle meets the hotel group's graceful Asian heritage. Small golden details and palatial public spaces honor the roots of the Beaux-Arts building, while wood and stone floors and the calm, dark color scheme are reminiscent of Asian design. The 83 suites feature high ceilings, huge windows, state-of-the-art technology, and Japanese-inspired bathrooms—a delightful Zen oasis that stands in perfect contrast to the bustling city.
