The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad

What the classifiers highlight

Rafael Viñoly designed this 500-foot NoMad tower, its floral motifs a nod to the neighborhood's past as Manhattan's flower district. Forbes notes all 250 rooms face south toward downtown, fitted with Diptyque products and two-toned terrazzo marble tubs, and points to José Andrés' Zaytinya and Nubeluz, the rooftop bar with 270-degree views. The spa sits underground in dark Italian marble.
