"A plush palace of spacious, handsome rooms complete with Frette linens and floor-to-ceiling windows."

"Mandarin guests are treated to a seemingly limitless selection of haute cuisine hot spots and gourmet dining outposts-all quite literally at their doorstep."

"The Mandarin Oriental New York competes with the Four Seasons across town as the best-situated, most modern luxury hotel in the city."

"Suites, however, are really what set this hotel apart, by creating enough stage space to make the hotel's Asian-influenced decor really dazzle."
