The Peninsula New York

"A black-tie event 23 stories above Fifth Avenue, featuring a Winter Wonderland-themed party with live music, a caviar bar, passed hors d'oeuvres, and open bar, with an option to include a five-course dinner at the hotel's Clement restaurant."

"Opulence greets you the minute you walk through the doors at this property set just off of Fifth Avenue, where flower arrangements and a grand staircase serve as the lobby's centerpiece. It's a formal atmosphere, but not an unwelcoming one. Huge, luxurious guest rooms, a top-notch spa, swimming pool, an excellent restaurant (Clement), and one of the best service staffs in NYC make for an exceptional experience. While the rooms and facilities are grand, it's the staff's warmth that encourages repeat visits."

"Best for: TweensNeighborhood: Midtown The Peninsula is one of the more famous luxury properties in New York, but it lands on this list for Camp Peninsula, one of the city’s most robust kids’ programs. Available to add to any reservation, the package includes welcome s’mores, a kid-sized tent, robe, and slippers, and—the most fun feature—a scavenger hunt with kids gallivanting through the whole hotel. We also love the hotel’s unique Peninsula Time program, which allows check in as early as 6 a.m. and check out as late as 10 p.m., all at no extra charge, a huge relief when your travel plans are at odd hours. Address: 700 5th Ave, New York, NY 10019"

"Brooklands, inside the luxury Peninsula Hotel and overseen by Claude Bosi, goes straight into the Guide with Two Stars, such is the excellent quality of the ingredients and the fine execution from Chef Francesco Dibenedetto." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
