HOTEL SUMMARY
Where century-old Beaux-Arts grandeur meets Aman's signature tranquility, Aman New York transforms Manhattan's historic Crown Building into the city's most exclusive urban retreat. Rising above Fifth Avenue's prestigious corridor, this landmark property redefines luxury hospitality in New York City, creating an oasis of calm that feels worlds away from the metropolitan energy below.
Opened in 2022 as Aman's first urban hotel in the United States, this extraordinary property occupies the Crown Building—a 100-year-old architectural masterpiece that once housed the Museum of Modern Art. Renowned designer Jean-Michel Gathy, architect of ten previous Aman properties, masterfully blended the building's Neo-Classical heritage with Aman's distinctive Asian minimalism. The transformation earned recognition in the World's 50 Best Hotels, ranking #25 in 2023 and maintaining its position at #37 in 2024, cementing its status among the globe's most coveted luxury accommodations.
Aman New York's 83 suites represent some of Manhattan's most spacious luxury accommodations, ranging from 72 to 257 square meters with soaring three-meter ceilings. Each suite features pivoting louvre doors that transform spaces from open-plan sanctuaries to intimate private retreats. Signature elements include working fireplaces, oval soaking tubs, and rain showers, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame spectacular city vistas. The Aman New York suites eschew artificial fragrances, allowing guests to experience the natural aromas of fine fabrics and carefully selected woods. Twenty-two branded residences extend the Aman experience for extended stays, offering the same meticulous attention to design and service.
Dining experiences reflect Aman's global sophistication through two distinctive venues. Nama presents washoku-inspired omakase under Chef Takuma Yonemaru's direction, while Arva offers convivial Italian cuisine found throughout Aman properties worldwide. The subterranean Jazz Club provides rare public access to this exclusive world, while the Garden Terrace spans 650 square meters of serene outdoor space. The spa and wellness facilities maintain Aman's holistic approach to luxury, featuring treatment rooms with fireplaces and a swimming pool designed for urban sanctuary experiences.
For discerning travelers seeking New York City's pinnacle of luxury hospitality, Aman New York booking represents access to Manhattan's most exclusive address. The property's position between the seventh and fourteenth floors ensures privacy while maintaining connectivity to Fifth Avenue's cultural treasures. Best experienced during shoulder seasons when the Garden Terrace showcases its full splendor, this ultra-luxury property offers En Primeur Club members exclusive amenities and potential suite upgrades, elevating an already extraordinary New York luxury hotel experience.
