The Carlyle

Considered the great “Home Away From Home” for many celebrities and icons like Jackie Kennedy, the Carlyle is one of the city’s greatest classics. In the heart of the Upper East Side, the hotel is legendary for its first-class service and unique spaces.
Featuring 189 rooms and suites with unique and incredible views of Central Park, the hotel was designed by the renowned architecture firm Bien & Prince and has upheld the legacy of one of Manhattan’s greatest landmarks for decades.
The Mark

One could say that the The Mark is the The Best Place To Be during the annual MET Ball, as it is where many celebrities stay and prepare for the big event. Iconic for its service and the numerous hotspots it comprises, the hotel offers 106 rooms and 47 suites ready to welcome you.
Among the hotspots, the award-winning Jean Georges restaurant stands out – if you visit, don’t miss the truffle pizza or the shrimp pasta with Sicilian lemon sauce – as well as the beauty salon of hairstylist Frederic Fekkai.
The Four Seasons Downtown

The Four Seasons Downtown is one of the highlights of our list. In addition to serving as the backdrop for the photos in Lifestyle Mag’s issue with Olivia Palermo and Johannes Huebl, the hotel is a great option for those who want to explore more of Soho, West Village, and the surrounding areas of the Big Apple.
And to make the place even more special, both guests and non-guests can indulge in the cuts of meat by super chef Wolfgang Puck and his team at The Cut, with resident chef Ben Small.
In addition to these, new hotels are constantly emerging in the city, so we will always be updating this list with the latest and greatest.
