This hotel was just voted the best in NYC
Forgive us for thinking of our very own New York as a hotel paradise. Home to over 700 hotels according to a 2020 Department of City Planning report, the city is filled with beautiful potential lodgings for both tourists and locals seeking wonderful staycations.
So being voted the very best hotels in NYC is, of course, a big deal—especially when the ranking is determined by a panel of actual travelers.
Condé Nast Traveler just released its 37th annual Readers’ Choice Awards survey, tallying up a total of 575,048 votes to come up with its list of 25 best hotels in New York City.
The Ritz-Carlton in NoMad earned top praises—and we’re not surprised. The 50-story luxury hotel opened just two years ago, adding a new 500-foot structure to the city’s skyline and plenty of internal opulence to boot.
Designed as an “oasis of modern luxury,” the destination is also home to novel culinary concepts by celebrity chef José Andrés, including D.C. transplant Zaytinya, rooftop bar Nubeluz and fine dining eatery The Bazaar by José Andrés.
Perennial local favorites also made the list, including The Plaza, Mandarin Oriental, Aman and the Four Seasons Hotel. Didn’t we say we live in a hotel paradise?
