One block away are the shops of 57th Street which includes Hermes, Daffy's, Bergdorf Goodman and Nike Town whilst Fifth Avenue is two blocks from the hotel and includes Brooks Brothers, Saks, Versace, Prada and many more of the world's most exclusive names in fashion. As the name of the hotel suggests Central Park is also nearby (3 blocks) and offers a true urban oasis, which includes a zoo, running and biking trails, playgrounds, ball fields, and an ice-skating rink during winter months.
