NEW YORK LINE UP I love staying overnight in New York because the city feels alive at every hour. Waking up to the skyline and spending my days exploring iconic spots, amazing food, and vibrant neighborhoods is unforgettable. At night, the lights, shows, and energy make it feel like the adventure never stops—it’s the perfect place for an exciting getaway. | |

Faena New York
New York, New York Faena New York, the latest creation from visionary hotelier Alan Faena, makes a striking entrance into Manhattan’s cultural scene inside the sculptural One High Line towers in West Chelsea. The 120-room hotel pairs floor-to-ceiling windows with a soft neutral palette punctuated by bold color, while gold accents and rich textures bring Faena’s maximalist glamour to its opulent public spaces. The hotel’s lively social calendar is a major draw, with culinary life centered around La Boca, where celebrated chef Francis Mallmann interprets Argentine tradition through fire-driven dishes at weekend brunch and spirited evenings accompanied by live music. On-site, The Living Room unfolds as a gilded salon for cocktails, performances, and intimate gatherings that capture the energy of downtown Manhattan. Spring makes the location even more attractive. Guests can stroll along the blooming paths of the High Line, visit contemporary galleries between 10th and 12th Avenues, or enjoy Hudson River breezes at Little Island and Chelsea Piers, all just a short walk away from the property.

The Pierre, a Taj Hotel New York
New York, New York
Spring lends the Big Apple a certain lightness, and few addresses experience it quite like The Pierre, a Taj Hotel New York, the long-standing Fifth Avenue landmark overlooking Central Park. Guests step out to paths filled with runners, cyclists, and the first stretch of green after winter, returning to rooms that feel composed and residential, many with uninterrupted park or skyline views. The hotel carries its heritage with quiet assurance, yet the atmosphere never feels fixed in time. Perrine provides a polished social setting where French technique meets a menu that reflects the city’s evolving tastes, while Two E Lounge hosts live jazz and rotating performances that draw a well-heeled local crowd as readily as travelers. The result is a version of spring in Manhattan shaped by refinement and continuity, where cultural life unfolds at an unhurried pace, and the city’s seasonal energy meets the calm confidence that has defined The Pierre for generations.
