USA: Aman New York, New York City
Serenity Above Fifth Avenue
Aman New York occupies the upper floors of the restored 1921 Crown Building on Fifth Avenue, a monumental transformation that pairs the building’s original Art Deco bones with a hushed, East meets West sensibility from designer Jean-Michel Gathy. The 83 residential-style suites, including a collection of one, two, and three-bedroom Homes, favor open floor plans, working fireplaces, natural materials, and latticed partitions over anything that reads as typical big-city hotel design. It is the kind of place built to slow a guest down, even one storey above the busiest corner of Manhattan.
The hotel’s approach to wellness is just as unhurried. A three-floor, roughly 25,000 square foot spa houses a hammam steam room, a private Banya spa house, a cryotherapy chamber, a dedicated fitness center, and even a heated indoor pool, alongside Traditional Chinese Medicine and reiki treatments not typically found in a Manhattan hotel. Dining runs from Nama, an intimate Japanese omakase counter, to Arva’s classic Italian menu and the subterranean Jazz Club for cocktails and late-night small plates, with a retractable-roof garden terrace open year-round above Fifth Avenue. Families are genuinely well looked after here too: suites start over 700 square feet and combine easily for larger groups, breakfast is included with kid-friendly options, and both restaurants offer thoughtful children’s menus, private museum tours, and cooking classes designed for younger guests. There is no formal kids club, but Aman clearly welcomes families rather than merely tolerating them.
