THE MARK HOTEL
New York
OVERVIEW
The Mark Hotel is the sort of hotel that will never go out of fashion. Occupying a beautiful building from 1927, sheathing elegant but distinctive interiors, The Mark is at once both modern and classic. Inside, you’ll be greeted by a polished black and white-striped lobby floor, antiques and bespoke artworks, then calming, light-filled guestrooms that are cleanly decorated in fresh hues.
There are 105 rooms, 46 suites and 1 penthouse in total at The Mark, each with a lovely view of either the interior courtyard, Upper East Side, city skyline or Central Park. They all come well-appointed too, flaunting marble bathrooms with separate tubs and showers, twin sinks and La Bottega dell’Albergo toiletries, as well as sleek features like Bang & Olufsen HD TVs, black granite bars and touchscreen controls. All this makes for a decadent hideaway in the middle of Manhattan, undoubtedly one of the best hotels in the Upper East Side.
Additionally, The Mark hits all the high notes when it comes to leisure time too. Feast on a fusion of French and American fare at The Mark Restaurant by Jean-Georges, brought to life by none other than celebrity chef, Jean-Georges Vongerichten (who has three Michelin stars to his name), then saunter off for a nightcap at the trendy Mark Bar. Try a personal training session at the well-equipped fitness centre, or cycle off into the city on one of the hotel’s bicycles when seeking a little sightseeing. If you’d rather let someone else do the legwork however, opt for a ride in one of the pedicabs instead! And, for something very special, admire New York from the water aboard The Mark’s 70ft sailboat, with snacks to nibble and drinks to sip as you take in the city view from this privileged perspective.
