Fall 2025: The New York EDITION

New York City has always been a magnet for Swiss travelers. But what can be more picturesque, romantic, and cinematographic than fall in New York? It has a special poetry of its own: browsing through Central Park during the foliage season, drinking pumpkin spice latte while cozying up in cashmeres, and warming up in the city’s world-class museums and galleries. Autumn here is not just a season, but an atmosphere – a gentle reminder of renewal, a spark for inspiration, and an invitation to new beginnings.

The choice of hotel in New York is crucial – it will define your experience of the city. The New York EDITION is the one that transforms your stay into a movie.

The hotel is located in the iconic Clock Tower on Madison Square Park, right across from the Flatiron Building. Originally built in 1909 as the headquarters of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, the Clock Tower was once one of the tallest buildings in the world, a proud symbol of New York’s ambition and progress.

Today The New York EDITION seamlessly blends the elegant design by Ian Schrager with its art deco architecture. Ian transformed the historical landmark into a place that carries the grandeur of its past while offering the intimacy and contemporary vibe that define the EDITION brand. Walking into the hotel from the busy central area of Madison Square Park feels so calming – you instantly feel welcomed and taken care of. A cozy area on the ground floor is your place to relax and unwind by the fireplace or plan your day, inspired by the view of Madison Square Park.

The location is simply unbeatable: central to all of Manhattan, it’s a destination in its own right, boasting public art installations in Madison Square Park, iconic landmarks with Beaux-Arts architecture, award-winning restaurants, and boutique shopping – an experience tying historic and modern New York. The hotel is close to the Empire State Building, Grand Central Terminal, and The Morgan Library & Museum. Union Square, Greenwich Village, Chelsea, NoMad, The High Line Park, or Gramercy Park – all of them are 10–15 minutes’ walk away. The choice is yours!

The hotel has 271 rooms, suites, and penthouses; expansive windows of each room frame Manhattan as if the city were your private backdrop. The atmosphere in the rooms is instantly recognizable – the design, comfort, and elegance of the EDITION that feels as familiar in New York as it does in London or Miami. Warm woods, soft neutral palettes, and curated photography create a space that brings that iconic coziness. Waking up in its suites gives you a private moment with the entire New York – you can see the city waking up to its rhythm from above.

The New York EDITION Exclusive Urban Spa is located high above the skyline, on the 39th floor, a rare sanctuary in Midtown Manhattan. Curated treatments allow you to pause from the city’s restless rhythm and reconnect with yourself. For those who prefer movement, the 24-hour gym offers Peloton bikes, Life Fitness equipment, and open training spaces – wellness with a view.

Dining at The New York EDITION is both refined and alive, filled with the energy of the City. True to the EDITION philosophy, the restaurants at the hotel are never “yet another hotel’s restaurants,” but cultural spaces that attract both locals and travelers – for the food & drinks and for the vibes.

The Clocktower Restaurant is a taste of contemporary London in bustling Madison Square Park.
The place includes the restaurant itself with three unique intimate dining rooms, a dedicated billiards room, which once was a chairman’s library in the 20th century and was transformed into a playful modern salon, and a lively bar with its famous Gold Bar made up entirely of 24k gold leaf – each individual space exuding its own personality.

The Lobby Bar, with its oversized windows overlooking Madison Square Park, becomes a gathering place where crafted cocktails catalyze vibrant conversations that stretch into the night.

If you feel like fine dining, this area offers the most amazing variety of choices, but the one we want to highlight has its special connection to Switzerland. Next door to the hotel is Eleven Madison Park – a fine-dining restaurant owned and operated by Swiss-born chef Daniel Humm, who has redefined fine dining for the modern era with a visionary plant-based menu. In 2022, Eleven Madison Park became the first restaurant in the world to earn three Michelin stars for an entirely plant-based menu. Daniel Humm is an incredible storyteller — each dish is a meditation on artistry, sustainability, and memory. To dine here is not simply to eat, but to experience Daniel’s philosophy that resonates far beyond the plate. And the place itself is the pinnacle of classic Art Deco architecture.

The New York EDITION is a part of the Marriott Bonvoy network. It connects seamlessly to its global family, allowing you to enjoy your global membership, yet it belongs uniquely to the City and has its own character and unique style. It is a hotel that feels like a residence, a sanctuary, and a perfect refuge in the very city center – a place where your New York story begins and unfolds like a film.
