Marriott has opened a Ritz-Carlton hotel in New York branded as an “Edition”. This complements the existing properties in Central Park and Times Square. It is a new-build.

The hotel rises 150 metres over New York’s Madison Square Park neighbourhood, spanning 50 storeys. It is one of the tallest buildings in the area.

There are 250 rooms including 19 suites, as well as 16 additional one- and two-bedroom penthouse residences, with bathroom amenities by Diptyque.

A rooftop skybar called Nubeluz will also open with 270-degree views, plus a handful of restaurants including one from José Andrés.

A Ritz-Carlton club lounge and spa are included although there is no swimming pool.

The Times Square ‘Edition’ Features 452 guestrooms, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, performance venue and six dining experiences developed by Michelin-starred Chef John Fraser.

For a less busy location there is also the Ritz Carlton Central Park with some of the best views in New York.
