1 Hotel Central Park
Eco-industrial treehouse meets upscale Manhattan. Casual but considered. The staff vibe is friendly and laid-back rather than stiff or ceremonious. Tree-stump coffee tables, hanging plants, leather seating, and sheep wool throws fill the lobby. It feels like someone designed a very chic forest and dropped it into Midtown.
Book a Park King or Park Suite for actual Central Park views — city-view rooms face neighboring buildings
Why It Matters
The flagship property of Barry Sternlicht's 1 Hotels brand — one of the first luxury hotel groups to make genuine sustainability its core identity, not just a marketing talking point. LEED certified. Michelin Key 2025. Chef Jonathan Waxman (James Beard Award winner) runs the on-site restaurant, Jams. There is no traditional spa, which surprises some guests at this price point.
A 229-room sustainable luxury hotel on 58th Street — one block from Central Park South — that looks like no other building on the block. The three-story living green façade is the first clue. Inside: roughly 40,000 plants, over 6,000 square feet of reclaimed wood, antique barn wood floors, blackened steel, and copper accents. It's legitimately beautiful in a way that doesn't feel forced. The hotel is LEED-certified, the mattresses are organic, and every faucet has a water filter. The 2025 Michelin Guide awarded it a Michelin Key — one of the most coveted new hotel accolades.
