Activities

See & Do
Start your exploration of Downtown with a foray into the galleries and stores of SoHo and Tribeca. Stock up with all things foodie at Chelsea Market before strolling along the HighLine – a former railroad track turned into an aerial garden walkway. 

Take a ferry trip to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, check out South Street Seaport, take a walking tour or go biking through the Hudson River Park, with its dog runs and tennis courts.

New York’s classic Midtown and Uptown sites await, whether it’s to be a bird’s eye view from the Empire State building, a run through Central Park or shopping at Bloomingdales and Barneys.

Spa
The subterranean Shibui spa, with its lantern-lit pool beneath the suspended roof of a Japanese wooden pavilion, looks gorgeous. There’s also poolside yoga, Japanese massages and a gleaming wood-panelled gym here to keep you on top of the game.

Four treatment rooms including a Shiatsu room, a wet room for wraps and scrubs, and a massage and facial room. The range of treatments runs from deep muscle massage to holistic facelifts.
