“Aka Central Park impresses with its generously sized suites-a real find in Manhattan-placing guests steps from Central Park and Columbus Circle's Whole Foods. I think that the in-suite kitchens and complimentary laundry facilities enhance the appeal for extended stays. The addition of a private cinema and Technogym elevates the experience beyond typical hotels.”
