Mandarin Oriental, 685 Fifth Ave, A17 Midtown, New York

Perched along Manhattan’s most iconic stretch of Fifth Avenue, the Mandarin Oriental Residences, Fifth Avenue is a boutique collection of just 69 turnkey homes within a 29-story historic conversion-once the storied headquarters of Gucci, now reimagined as the pinnacle of private luxury living.

Here, the line between five-star hotel and private residence disappears, with a la carte services including in-home dining, housekeeping, turn-down service, personal chefs, sommeliers, and more!

Amenities include a 24-hour concierge, attended lobby, rooftop pool with cabanas and bar, spa with steam room and sauna, Technogym fitness center, yoga studio, and private salon. Crowning it all is Boulud Privé, the first private dining concept by Michelin-starred chef Daniel Boulud, serving residents exclusively.

Residence 17A is a beautifully proportioned 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home delivered fully furnished and accessorized with white oak chevron flooring, cove ceilings with integrated lighting, Molteni kitchens with Miele appliances, and spa-like baths featuring champagne gold Dornbracht fixtures, heated marble floors, and deep soaking tubs.

A sweeping Great Room overlooking Central Park and Fifth Avenue seamlessly integrates living, dining, and kitchen spaces, opening onto a rare private terrace. The primary suite offers a serene retreat with a luxurious en-suite bath and walk-in closet with washer and dryer, while the second bedroom features its own en-suite.
