"The Nikko is a Japanese hotel and the influence shows in its design. A refresh in 2017 gave an update to the rooms and public spaces, calming and comfortable with a blue and white palette and pillowtop mattresses. The 10,000 square-foot gym has dry saunas and a steam room and the glass enclosed pool lets sunlight stream in during the day. Right near Union Square, the location is a winner as well." - Megan McCrea, Jenna Scatena
