AAA 5 Diamond Hotel
This landmark 23-storey Beaux Arts building has a stellar address on New York City's high-flying Fifth Avenue, just blocks from the Rockefeller Centre, major museums and leafy Central Park. Inside, the Peninsula is the perfect combination of old-world charm and state of the art technology. Be prepared to pass through paparazzi on your way in.
Service is faultless and discreet, and guests are whisked up the grand stairway to their rooms with minimal fuss. The 185 rooms and 54 suites are decorated in a contemporary classic style. Best of all, there's a bedside control panel that allows you to regulate the lighting, television, stereo, air conditioning and even the ‘Do not disturb' sign on your door. Room service runs 24-hours a day.
The Peninsula features one of the best and biggest New York hotel health clubs and ESPA spas, set over three floors. Similarly, its restaurants and bars are favourites among professional New Yorkers. Signature restaurant Fives has a good reputation for its Contemporary American cuisine and city scenes, viewed through arched windows.
But the hippest public space in the hotel is the rooftop Salon de Ning. An intimate interior bar leads to two large outdoor terraces with Chinese-style day beds for relaxing and taking in the stunning skyline.
Love a good view? Located on the top of the Time Warner Centre high above Columbus Circle, the Mandarin Oriental New York has the most amazing views of the Manhattan skyline.
