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.
The Whitby Hotel
- Setting: West 56th Street near Fifth Avenue, Central Park and the Museum of Modern Art.
- Firmdale Hotels does not operate a public consumer points programme.
- Seasonal openings, restaurant schedules and spa access should be confirmed for the intended dates.
