At the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street, Aman New York occupies the restored Crown Building, where gilded Beaux-Arts detail gives way to Jean-Michel Gathy’s restrained, Japanese-influenced interiors. The 83 suites are notably large for Manhattan. Timber screens, stone bathrooms and working fireplaces create a residential atmosphere above Midtown. Arva, Nama and the seasonal Garden Terrace provide distinct settings for dining, joined after dark by the intimate Jazz Club. Three floors are devoted to wellness, including a 20-metre indoor pool, hammam, banya, treatment rooms and two private Spa Houses.
