"Occupying 14 floors at Hudson Yards, Equinox Hotel New York is a wellness-first property where I saw fitness and recovery elevated to hospitality priorities—think massages with IV vitamin drips, cryotherapy, a striking rooftop pool, beds made of natural fibers, and sauna-sized showers—while the focus remains on feeling good rather than calorie counting." - CNT Editors
"Choose from Icoone Roboderm lymphatic drainage, cryotherapy, infrared sauna, NutriDrip IVs, quantum harmonics sessions, massages, acupuncture, body sculpting, and facials, and you’ll find that you can easily spend an entire day here relaxing. If you’re looking to narrow it down a bit, the remodeling lift facial is a game changer: Using a combination of three types of electrical currents that target the facial muscles, it works to lift and tone your face while helping seal in the products, resulting in a more defined facial contouring. If this sounds like mumbo jumbo to you, trust me, I thought the same. However, my amazing therapist, Alina, used the currents on just one side of my face and proceeded to hand me a mirror to compare—and I was shocked to see a visible difference in the lift around my cheekbones and my chin on the side she treated. She made me a believer." - CNT Editors
"I portray the Equinox Hotel in New York as the epitome of bleisure: a flagship property built around a 60,000-square-foot gym, proprietary in-room sleep systems that create an optimal environment for rest, and biohacking spa therapies—amenities that attract roughly 35% business travelers who come for health, sleep, work, and relaxation integrated into one stay." - Jen Murphy
"Subdued but stylish, the sleek, minimalist pool deck is built for midday focus and early‑evening recovery. As part of the fitness club, it’s shared by hotel guests and Equinox members, so I can swim laps, then claim a lounger and order a cocktail from Broken Coconut’s full service. The menu stays on‑mission—no burgers or fries—just smoothies, salads, and generously portioned poke bowls. When temperatures dip in fall through early spring, the loungers give way to barrel saunas, keeping the ritual restorative year‑round." - Jessica Chapel
"Performance-driven luxury defines this hotel: a revolutionary sleep system pairs handcrafted beds with total-blackout technology and complete soundproofing; every stay includes access to the flagship Equinox Fitness Club with specialized training zones, regeneration spaces, and unlimited SoulCycle classes; an extensive spa adds cryotherapy chambers and infrared saunas; indoor and outdoor pools deliver dramatic Hudson River panoramas; and at Electric Lemon you can drink and dine on one of the best rooftops in the world." - Alexis Benveniste
