Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Premium price point — With rates from $1,643 per night, this is a high-end stay that may not suit all budgets.
  • Spa not as grand as New York — One guest noted the spa and fitness centre are less luxurious than the Mandarin Oriental's New York property.

  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only available from 15:00 to 23:59, which could be inconvenient for late arrivals.
