"An art nouveau–style grande dame in Cortina d’Ampezzo that first opened in 1901, this historic hotel has hosted celebrities such as Frank Sinatra and Brigitte Bardot and even lent its skating rink to the U.S. Olympic team for practice during the 1956 Winter Olympics. Taken over by Mandarin Oriental in 2022, it has been closed since 2023 for an extensive Herzog & de Meuron–led renovation; a reopening date has not yet been announced. Planned features include 83 rooms and suites (many with balconies and panoramic mountain views), a variety of restaurants and bars (with the fate of the legendary nightclub still unclear), and a spacious spa with an indoor/outdoor pool. Room rates are not yet available." - Laura Itzkowitz
"Features the Winter Bliss Retreat with Oriental Qi massage and Youth Infusion facial, alongside access to steam rooms and unique classes like Floating Meditation."
"As a longtime Upper West Sider, I’ve strolled through Central Park dozens of times; that didn’t make the sweeping views from the Premier Central Park View Suite any less awe-inspiring. The accommodations were just as spectacular, with a massive U-shaped couch, a fluffy king-size bed, and heavy blackout shades that close at the touch of a button. Because of its top-tier service, sumptuous amenities, and fantastic central location, the Mandarin Oriental is both an excellent special-occasion staycation for New Yorkers and a prime landing spot for out-of-towners seeking easy access to Broadway, Central and Bryant Parks, and Fifth Avenue. Guests have easy access to two Michelin-starred restaurants, Per Se and Masa; a flex even by New York standards. From $800. —Madison Flager" - CNT Editors

"Perched high above the city with floor-to-ceiling windows, this chic property is prized for unbeatable Central Park vistas and sweeping skyline or Hudson River outlooks; book the Premier Central Park View Room or Suite for the iconic park panorama, or the New York Skyline Suite on the top floor for dramatic cityscapes. Afternoon tea at the MO Lounge offers a panoramic alternative to an overnight stay, and the hotel’s proximity to Central Park (a two-minute walk) makes picnics and outdoor plans easy to arrange." - Maria Yagoda Maria Yagoda Maria Yagoda is a writer, author, and editor who has traveled around the world professionally for over ten years.
