The Mandarin Oriental New York at the Columbus Circle really deserves its five stars. There are 202 rooms and 46 suites with ceiling-high windows with view on the Central Park, the Hudson River or the Manhattan skyline as well as a 1,350-square-metre large spa. Since its opening eight years ago the hotel hasn't lost any of its quality as the latest distinctions confirm: the Mandarin is listed on the Condé Nast Traveler Gold List, was selected by the readers of the Travel + Leisure Guides as one of the top 500 hotels and received five stars by the Forbes Travel Guide 2011 for hotel and spa. This spa distinction is unique in New York.

 

The rooms in the Mandarin range from 39 square metres in standard rooms to 246 square metres in the presidential suite. Starting from 850 dollars per night. Guests have a direct access to the luxury boutiques and restaurants in the Time Warner Center as well as the 5^th Avenue. And also the Times Square and Broadway is only a stone's throw away.
