Couples can unwind at Spa de La Mer (the first of its kind in the U.S.), enjoy the 55-foot indoor pool, or opt for the “More Amour” package, which includes champagne, handcrafted chocolates, a Baccarat crystal keepsake, and breakfast in bed. The plush rooms are perfect for celebrating love, with Parisian-inspired aesthetics, beds dressed in Mascioni jacquard linens and a cashmere throw, Maison Francis Kurkdjian amenities, and stunning Baccarat crystal details.

Spacious, design-forward guest rooms come with city skyline views, while on-site dining at Courier. Kitchen & Tap highlights seasonal ingredients and serves contemporary twists on classic American flavors.

Whether you’re exploring nearby trails or just keeping your step count high downtown, this is a getaway that’s as energizing as it is easy.
There’s something undeniably magical about New York City’s frenetic energy, but if you’re looking for a reprieve from the bustling metropolis, consider Roosevelt Island in the East River just next to Manhattan.

With some truly stunning views of the city, a swanky rooftop bar, and fun and funky rooms, this hotel is the perfect place for those who want the best of both worlds. Its prime location is mere minutes from the tram and ferry for easy access to Manhattan and Brooklyn, while bike-friendly roads lend themselves to a low-key day exploring the island’s parks and historic landmarks.
