New York's Best Hotels that are most frequently booked by customers of Aman New York
😒 3/5 - Lots of kinks to iron out

I recently spent 3 nights at the Aman NYC as a full paying guest (not a travel puff piece) so all my comments are in the context that this is the by far the most expensive city hotel I have ever stayed in. As the management was so confident they would hit the ground running there were no introductory (we are still ironing out the kinks) specials at this Aman so I was ready to be blown away! I will start with the positives. Location: can’t be beaten. Bergdorf Goodman and Central Park right at your doorstep. Interiors: stunning design albeit a little dark and moody. The restaurants and rooms have lovely light but behind this the reception areas and spa have very limited light. Rooms: exceptionally spacious, with a fire, huge bathroom and dressing area. Was upgraded on arrival, but I suspect there are no bad rooms in this hotel. The rooms have every gadget known to man, including a toilet with 7 different settings. Nespresso machine but no milk or milk frother. I guess they want you to order the $16 latte every time from in room dining. Was welcomed by a plate of chocolates and a birthday cake, which was a nice touch but not extraordinary. Food: I would say disappointing. I used the in room dining and dined at Avra for breakfast and lunch. In room dining was very limited. For a hotel of this calibre I would have expected a greater range ( where are the salads and hot chocolate??). The vibe in the restaurant bordered on zen at breakfast ( I guess this was the hotel guests) but felt very corporate at lunch and a ‘scene’ at dinner. Perhaps this is the ‘exclusive’ vibe they are trying to create but I found it unwelcoming and pretentious. Where is the Aman ‘zen’ ?? Vibe: By day 2, I realised that the hotel is trying the create a ‘private members club’ vibe, but for me it was bordering on intrusive. To get to your room there are no less than 3 ‘gate keepers’, which greet you and ask you to either show your room key or enquire as to what your business is at the hotel. We stayed at the Aman Tokyo at opening and they nailed it. Next level personalised service where we were greeted by name throughout the hotel, after our arrival. While this may be the aim at the Aman NYC, it is far from personalised and as a result the experience is exhausting. It also creates an atmosphere which is less than welcoming. There are loads of staff, whose job is unclear, but you are left with the impression that they are waiting for someone more important than you. Spa: 3 levels of cavernous but very well appointed treatment rooms. Amazing branding with leisure wear and spa products available for purchase.. There is an extensive spa menu but there appears to be very limited availability of therapists. My treatment was very good. There was also very poor communication in the spa. I had pre-booked treatments but received no in room reminders or reminders at checkin of my appointments so luckily I checked back on my email communication. I could have easily forgotten my appointment in a jetlagged haze. The spa also tried to charge me for late cancellation of a treatment. Clearly they had not checked their messages before the end of the day ( and had not answered the phone when I called). Lots of staff in training at the spa also, which you would usually overlook except you are paying almost 4K per night so you can’t!!. The spa is also the gate keeper to the gym and pool area. Overall, as I left the Aman NYC with a significantly lighter bank account I can’t help but feel disappointed. I was ready to be blown away but all I felt was relief. I moved down the road to another hotel for the remainder of my stay. While the rooms may be a little more dated, I am overlooking the park and am welcomed each day by old fashioned service with a smile. As the concierge at hotel 2 said to me ‘you are the center of my universe right now Ms X, I am focused on nothing else but you’ I knew I was in the right place.
