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.
Six Senses Kanuhura
- Six Senses is wellness-led but not a rigid retreat; book diagnostics or treatments early if that is your priority.
- Transfers can be a material part of the stay—confirm domestic flights, boats, roads, and weather contingencies.
- Rates and meal inclusions vary sharply by resort and season; compare the total, not the headline room rate.
Summary
