June 2, 2015: Mandarin Oriental, New York, has launched 42 restyled one- and two-bedroom suites. Overlooking Central Park, the Hudson River and the Manhattan skyline, each suite reflects New York life
Situated on the corners of each guest floor, the restyled suites blend a modern interpretation of Mandarin Oriental’s Asian flair with a luxurious, residential aesthetic commemorating three unique themes and color palettes – New York Sunrise, New York Dusk and New York Nights. Curated by Rare Culture, the suites feature original works by emerging New York-based and New York-inspired artists that complement each suite’s overall theme.
Featuring views of Central Park and the Hudson River, the 820 square-foot Central Park View Suite has been designed to reflect the quiet hours of New York mornings with vivid hues of scarlet, orange and yellow. Featuring shades of teal to reflect the waters of the Hudson, the 800 square-foot Hudson River View Suite offers a serene respite from the energetic scene of the city during the rush of late afternoon. With panoramic views of Central Park and the glittering city skyline, the 800 square-foot one-bedroom and 1,220 square-foot two-bedroom Premier Central Park View Suite captures the moment at sunset when the city comes to life with vibrant tones of amethyst.
All 42 suites feature custom designed furnishings. A teardrop-shaped table of ebonized walnut is a centerpiece for entertaining, dining or working in the living area, while richly textured curved sofas provide a place of comfort while maximizing city views from multiple angles. Dramatic stripes in shades of silver and black, soft Asian-inspired graphic designs, and grained maple veneers are combined to provide a dynamic and sophisticated millwork accent wall in the living area, exuding the ambiance of an upscale home.
Master bath and powder rooms further illustrate the residential tone with side-by-side sinks, soothing rainforest showers with separate soaking tubs, luxurious Fresh-brand bath amenities and mirrored vanities featuring built-in televisions. Recognizing that today’s sophisticated travelers expect state-of-the-art, user-friendly technology, each of the suites feature Samsung 55-inch Smart LED televisions in both the living rooms and bedrooms, Harman Kardon sound systems with Bluetooth capabilities in the living room’s entertainment area as well as built-in connectivity panels in the living room desks to play content on the suites’ televisions and sound systems.
Rates begin at USD1,795 per night, subject to availability, and guests booking the newly-designed suites will also have access to an array of exclusive experiences and amenities to be launched in summer 2015. For reservations, call +1 (212) 805 8800 or visit mandarinoriental.com
