Its design and unique location in the Time Warner Center coupled with Mandarin Oriental’s legendary hospitality makes it one of the city’s most distinct and sophisticated hotels.Mandarin Oriental, New York is located more than 280 feet above ground level, providing a stunning hotel arrival experience. It features 248 spacious, elegant guestrooms and suites, all with breathtaking views of the city skyline, Central Park and the Hudson River. All rooms offer advanced in-room entertainment technology. The 14,500-square-foot Five-Star Spa at Mandarin Oriental, including a state-of-the-art fitness center and a 75-foot lap pool, is a prominent element of the hotel.
Dramatic views provide a spectacular backdrop for the food and beverage outlets including Asiate, the hotel’s vibrant restaurant serving contemporary cuisine with an Asian influence, and the chic MObar, both created by noted designer Tony Chi, as well as a Lobby Lounge. Exceptional banqueting and conference services, along with elegant rooms that incorporate the latest technology, make Mandarin Oriental, New York the location of choice for sophisticated events for up to 750 people. A 6,000-square-foot pillar-less ballroom overlooking the park is the centerpiece of the event facilities. In addition, the hotel provides services to The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, New York, the 64 luxury apartments that are an integral part of the development.
Mandarin Oriental, New York’s style reflects the Group’s exotic oriental heritage as is seen in the use of works of art and small details, adding to the overall luxurious feel of the hotel. Also reflected in the design are more contemporary elements revealing its New York City location. Situated at Columbus Circle, the point from which all distances to and from Manhattan are measured, the hotel stands at a cornerstone of Central Park, serving as the perfect meeting point, bridging East and West, North and South.
“This is a significant step for Mandarin Oriental and is very much in keeping with our strategy to grow our brand in major business centers worldwide. The hotel further strengthens presence in the United States,” said Edouard Ettedgui, Group Chief Executive of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group.
The opening of the hotel in December 2003 marked the completion of the first phase of one of New York City’s premier mixed-use real estate projects. In addition to the hotel, the development includes Time Warner’s world headquarters, CNN live broadcast production studios, luxury retail, world-class dining – including Thomas Keller’s Per Se and Masa of renown sushi chef Masa Takayama – office and residential components, and a 100,000-square-foot, world-class performance hall for Jazz At Lincoln Center.
