Staying at World’s MOST EXPENSIVE CITY HOTEL | AMAN New York Review (plus NYC Helicopter Tour) 

The property was absolutely gorgeous and extremely well positioned, but I personally felt it to be a bit underwhelming for the price point. It didn't really felt like an Aman to me, and like what you rightfully mentioned, a lot of "Aman touches" was lacking, such as expecting to come back to a made-up room every time, attentiveness to details, service standards, etc. I guess that's the trade-offs of having an Aman in a big city!

Thank you for showing us, excellent review as always.

Amazing video and review! Please continue doing these

We loved watching this episode and your excellent videography. The music used is very fitting for the exploration of this amazing property. Keep up the great work!

Wonderful stay. Thanks for showing us! Please post more videos of your trips and hotel stays!

Apparently, rooms facing 56th St are located in a newly built addition connected to the hotel, hence the larger floor to ceiling windows. The rooms facing 5th Ave and 5tth St have smaller windows as they are in the original Crown building.

LMAO I binge content like this. keep it up brodie 🙌

Great video, thank you so much for sharing!

I have been dying to take a look inside this new hotel! Thanks for the video.

❤ I really enjoyed every second of your tour. Greetings from Malaysia 😊

Love the color scheme. Earth tones. Very nice but very very expensive. I usually like to stay in lower Manhattan. Around Soho. Love that area.

3:41 a lot from the Philippines.. I know.. it was amazing. servicio espectacular. altamente recomendado.

I used to work here great place.

Where is your grey overcoat from? Its great

Are you gonna make video on St Regis New York? Also would love to see you reviewing Aman Venice. The building is beautiful!

Visit Aman Dominican Republic, it’s amazing!

Got a glimpse of your coat at 4:33, it’s… 😮

Thank your for your thorough review videos! Honest question: how do you handle tipping when staying in a super-luxury property like this?

lots of folks concerned about safety in NY now!

which camera do you use?

New York JFK❤ Airport!!!

inside the problem is subject of sceen the field too pick up is arrival in sceen in field Product 😊

Go to the Aman in Thailand

I think for more than half the price ritz carlton nomad is a better option. the four seasons central park is being renovated as well.

😁👍

On a per sq ft basis, I would say the Ritz Paris is even more expensive. For EUR 2,500 all you get is their most basic room which is around 300-400 sq ft.

I would appreciate if you could name 6th and 7th ocean, please (39:04)

Before I watched this video, I read an article about an interview with Aman Group's chairman and CEO, Vlad Doronin. The interviewer asked a very candid question: "How has Aman New York gone, given that there were some doubters when it opened in August 2022 about how your team would translate the typical hideaway experience of an Aman resort into a major city?" Doronin replied, " [Aman] enables guests to be fully immersed in the pace and buzz of the city, yet the moment they step into our doors, they experience utmost sanctuary and peace." The CEO did not elaborate further, but his answer to the interviewer's question prompted me to wonder: How could Aman enable guests to "experience utmost sanctuary and peace" at Fifth Avenue, one of the busiest streets in New York City? With that question in mind, I watched this video. While other viewers might have been mesmerized by the luxurious and breathtakingly appealing interior, I was not so, because my eyes were busy "scrutinizing" the hotel's interior, searching for those often-ignored but critically important details that had enabled Aman's CEO to say that once guests stepped into Aman New York, they would "experience sanctuary and peace". Follow are my observations and analysis. *First, extensive and thoughtful acoustic treatments throughout the interior of Aman New York* . Because I read about it before, I was able to recognize multiple sound-absorbing materials in the hotel's interior design: woods, carpet, furniture with thick cushions. I also noticed the extensive used of glass in the hotel's interior. I cannot tell what kind of glass that is by just watching the video, but if those glass panels were made of fiberglass and/or acoustic glass, those glass panels would also absorb sound instead of reflecting it back to the hotel's interior. To further enhance the sound-absorbing effect, rubber underlayment could also be placed under flooring materials, which they likely did. *Second, ambient lighting that produces dim, soft light* . As shown in the video, the hotel shunned general or task lighting that produces bright, white light. It also blocks natural light. The hotel' lobby and hallways use only one kind of lighting: ambient light. The dim, soft light produced by ambient lighting enhances the hotel interior's aesthetic, creates an inviting atmosphere, defines space, improves guests' mood, and shapes their emotions. *Third, I also noticed that, from staff members to guests, no one raised their voice. Everyone conversed in volume only loud enough to be heard* . The architects who designed Aman New York went to great distance to incorporate the Aman ethos in the design of the hotel. It was because all this hard work and the sometimes dry, dull technical details associated with it that enabled Aman's CEO to make that confident, and unequivocal statement: "[Aman] enables guests to be fully immersed in the pace and buzz of the city, yet the moment they step into our doors, they experience utmost sanctuary and peace." Aman New York, an ultra-luxury hotel that offers guests an immersive, one-of-a- kind experience. Is it worth the money? I will rescue myself from opining on this question, because my wallet will unlikely ever allow me to splurge at any ultra-luxury Aman hotel. Thanks for sharing!

The ritz Paris charge more than that. The lowest you can have is 2200€ which is 2500$, and this is the lowest you can have

Baccarat new york is expensive too

Rosewood Hotel is another one…

You can rent the best airbnb townhouse for that price

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Noice...

Ino sleep business important life important

Nice but overpriced for what you get .I don’t see much difference between that and Park Hyatt quality for example, except in the price .

Baccarat Hotel is better value for money

Shouldn’t say last name they should say surname please Sir

it is purely based on preference but Aman style is not for me; bland colours and styling

One of the worst things you can do in NYC is a Heli tour. Dislike, block

Hahahhahahaha
