As America prepares for a landmark summer celebrating 250<\/a> years of independence, its most vibrant city will receive some 66.3 million<\/a> leisure visitors. New York City<\/a> is a constant magnet for the global elite who want the stimulation of world-class art and culture, fine-dining and drinking, luxury shopping, sports, theatre and opera \u2013 and, of course, the 5-star hotels situated at the focal point of this enviable lifestyle.<\/p>\n

Few are better located than the Mandarin Oriental, New York, recently ranked as the city\u2019s best hotel<\/a> by US News & World Report<\/em> \u2013 and the fourth best<\/a> in the whole country. Rising 300ft above Columbus Circle and mere steps away from the southern side of Central Park, it offers both close proximity to \u2013 and panoramic views of \u2013 Manhattan\u2019s great green playground, from the 35th floor and higher.<\/p>\n

And while the park is an obvious draw for hotel guests who relish its physical and mental health benefits, so too are the Mandarin Oriental, New York\u2019s multi-award-winning spa and wellness spaces. State-of-the-art facilities, a 75-ft pool (overlooking the Hudson River), VIP suites, and signature treatments in The Spa are designed to relax and rejuvenate guests, whether they\u2019ve just transferred from a long-haul flight, or have spent a day exploring nearby Fifth Avenue\u2019s gleaming luxury department stores \u2013 and then ventured further to browse SoHo\u2019s coolest boutiques and bistros.<\/p>\n

It might be hard, however, for those staying in one of the hotel\u2019s four Signature Suites to tear themselves away from its relaxing elegance and comfortable space, even at their hungriest. Thankfully, in-suite dining resolves this happy dilemma, making everything from healthy snacks to sumptuous meals available 24 hours a day. The spacious Suite 5000 is one with ample room for entertaining \u2013 3,300 sq ft, to be precise. What guest wouldn\u2019t want to invite friends over to admire the breathtaking view of Central Park and New York\u2019s cityscape through floor-to-ceiling windows, and have a sophisticated dinner served at table, for an unforgettable occasion?<\/p>\n

Curating incomparable experiences and personalized comfort is something at which Mandarin Oriental excels. Guests in the New York Signature Suite (along with the equally stunning Presidential Suite, Oriental Suite, and New York Skyline Suite) have a dedicated and discreet Private Concierge at their service around the clock to assist in any aspect of their stay, whether it\u2019s a weekend, a fortnight or a longer-term visit. It starts with a complimentary car transfer from the airport on arrival (and departure), a personal welcome at the hotel entrance followed by a seamless check-in, and continues in this vein for the extent of the stay. Menu options, including preferred ingredients and dietary requirements, can be curated by a chef, assuring Signature Suite guests that their favorite food and drink will be available to enjoy at any time, day or night.<\/p>\n

Everything has been thought of here: from sleep-enhancing therapies, daily use of the hotel\u2019s own car, in-suite shopping experiences with a fashion specialist, to 24-hour access to the fitness suite and tickets to a Broadway show. Experiencing New York City\u2019s best hotel, with everything it offers, is the only way to experience one of America\u2019s best cities.<\/p>\n
