Wake up in the ‘city that never sleeps’ with this collection of dreamy hotels.

Frank Sinatra famously labelled New York City as ‘a city so nice, they named it twice’. He may have been promoting his song at the time, but the label stuck and remains as true today as when those famous words were first uttered.

One of the busiest cities on the planet, New York can be different things to different people. To some it may appear congested, dirty and intimidating; to others it is vibrant, energetic and full of life, with endless sights to see, places to go and personal stories to be written.

The sheer scale of New York City also makes it home to hundreds of luxury hotels, from the boutique through to renowned brands welcoming guests the world over.

Some are home to members of New York City’s most revered names in dining, Michelin stars among many accolades, while others boast views of Central Park or Manhattan’s enchanting waterways.

Whether you crave hustle and bustle or are in search of a quieter corner of the five boroughs to base yourself, in no particular order, here are some of the most spectacular addresses you can call home during your visit.

To complete the occasion, Titsou speakeasy bar evokes the classic intimacy of 1920s Paris. As an alternative, the more casual Par Ici Café is vegetarian themed and specialises in the ‘slow food’ concept in a typical French café setting. The FIDI Where you’ll find it: 11 Stone Street, Financial District This new-build 27-storey tower in New York’s Financial District is exactly where The FIDI takes its name as the first two letters of its surrounds.

The Gotham Suite resembles somewhere you'd expect Bruce Wayne to stay. Guests can select from a choice of three bed styles – plush, signature or firm – while marble bathrooms feature an in-mirror television, separate soaking tubs and walk-in showers.

Dining features traditional French and American fare prepared with international ingredients. Michelin-star Chef John Fraser helms the hotel’s dining offering via La Marchande, a modern take on the classic French brasserie with menu items prepared using exotic ingredients imported from Southeast Asia.  Vermouth is the focal palette cleanser in the beverage list, with numerous cocktails embodying the fortified aperitif including the appropriately located Manhattan.

These include the highest sky deck in the Western Hemisphere and City Climb, where you can dangle from the edge of a skyscraper. Couple this with luxury boutiques and intriguing galleries and you’re in one of Manhattan’s most exciting precincts. Take your pick from two swimming pools - a rarity for Manhattan. Each of the 222 rooms at Equinox Hudson Yards feature extra-large blackout curtains and soundproofing technology, with the goal of blocking out the Manhattan evening ‘ambiance’ (read: honking horns and snarling traffic) and ensuring all guests enjoy a deep, restful sleep. Elevating this fitness focus are the services of an Equinox Sleep Coach, a digital room attendant who can guide you through a series of stretches to help you wind down in the evening, or conversely, warm up your body in the morning, with yoga equipment also available. Rooms are designed to ensure guests get the best sleep possible. The theme continues with the hotel’s dining offering, with high-performance breakfasts and nutritious dinners and after-hours sleep-promoting fare, menus are crafted for renewal and recovery. Perhaps unique for a Manhattan hotel, the hotel features two swimming pools, with a 22-metre indoor saltwater lap pool available alongside an outdoor pool, with summer cabanas able to be booked to soak up some New York sun. Four Seasons Downtown Where you’ll find it: 27 Barclay Street, Tribeca Naturally, the Four Seasons moniker is synonymous with luxury and opulence. New York Downtown is no exception. Four Seasons is as much a place to meet and be seen as it is to stay. Boasting 368 expansive rooms and suites named after New York boroughs and precincts, guests can book spaces starting from the 37 sqm Brooklyn Room up to the 223 sqm Empire Suite.  There’s even a Gotham Suite, should fans of the caped crusader be so inclined to check-in, while many rooms feature spellbinding views over Midtown… even without Bruce Wayne’s alter-ego lurking. The Gotham Suite resembles somewhere you'd expect Bruce Wayne to stay. Guests can select from a choice of three bed styles – plush, signature or firm – while marble bathrooms feature an in-mirror television, separate soaking tubs and walk-in showers. Famed US chef Wolfgang Puck has applied his creative nous to the Four Seasons dining options, built around signature restaurant ‘Cut’ open for three meals each day. Dining at Four Seasons Downtown is overseen by celebrity chef, Wolfgang Puck. The hotel has dedicated an entire floor to its health and wellness facilities, with a seven-room spa facility and indoor heated lap pool to help guests warm up their muscles. The indoor pool is part of an entire floor dedicated to guest health and wellbeing. Should improving your personal health be an objective (and why wouldn’t it be?), guests can even partake in a Life + Longevity package which includes a full-day comprehensive check-up which crafts a personalised wellness program to manage any future risks and maintain an active lifestyle. The Wall Street Hotel Where you’ll find it: 88 Wall Street Newly opened, this Australian-owned ode to excellence and grandeur can be found right on America’s most famous street in finance, just a few blocks down from the NYSE itself. Many a financial executive have walked these halls. Housed within the historic Tontine Coffee House building, named after an investment type which once served as a legendary meeting spot for stockbrokers, the hotel features 180 elegant rooms and suites. Inspired by classic New York homes, the Wall Street Hotel’s rooms embody the rambunctious swagger of political eras before it through curated libraries, handcrafted in-room spirit carts and original artworks, enveloped by calming colour tones. For the high-powered business trip, stay right on the street where global markets are influenced. Guests can opt for the homely 26 sqm Pearl Street King room through to the exuberant 65 sqm Great Pearl Suite, complete with separate living and dining rooms, powder room and two bathrooms. This elegance extends to the hotel’s public facilities, with first encounters facilitated by a stately grand lobby lounge perfect for a coffee or an evening aperitif while you agonise over the daily New York Times crossword. Dining features traditional French and American fare prepared with international ingredients. Michelin-star Chef John Fraser helms the hotel’s dining offering via La Marchande, a modern take on the classic French brasserie with menu items prepared using exotic ingredients imported from Southeast Asia.  Vermouth is the focal palette cleanser in the beverage list, with numerous cocktails embodying the fortified aperitif including the appropriately located Manhattan.

For dinner, take a seat at The Mint to enjoy some new-age American favourites inspired by Mediterranean culture. 

Upstairs, the intimate Mint Bar and cocktail lounge is sure to become a favourite among Wall Street’s executives, with a two-storey jewel box terrace complete with a disco ball for when it’s time for the party to begin.

Where you’ll find it: 33 Hudson Yards
