Good to Know
Aman New York
The hotel's jazz club, in the building's restored 1920s vault, is open to outside guests and worth a visit even if you're not staying.
Directly on Fifth Avenue at 57th Street — steps from Central Park, but genuinely quiet once you're inside given the building's thick 1921 construction.
This is Aman's highest-priced US city hotel — book well ahead for any meaningful rate.
Hotel das Cataratas, A Belmond Hotel
Only hotel inside Brazil's Iguaçu National Park; early and late falls access is the reason to stay here.
About 15 km from Foz do Iguaçu airport (IGU); private vehicles generally cannot overnight in the park.
Combine Brazilian panoramic walkways with an Argentine-side day trip for the full falls system (passport rules apply).
Book Deluxe Cataratas or better if falls views matter; Superior rooms face gardens.
