Overview
Built in December 2003, the Asian-inspired Mandarin Oriental, New York is one of the most well thought out luxury hotels in Manhattan. It's discreetly located above Columbus Circle, on floors 35 through 54 of the Time Warner complex and near Central Park. The vast majority of guests here are posh couples and wealthy business travelers, but families are often guests as well.

The hotel spa and 75-foot indoor lap pool are also a luxurious treat for guest.

However, popular destinations such as The Broadway theater district, The Museum of Modern Art, designer shops on Fifth and Madison Avenue and time Square are only a 10-to-20 minute stroll from the hotel.
