Finding accommodation to suit a nature-lover in the concrete jungle of New York City?<\/a>\u00a0Look no further than 1 Hotel Central Park<\/a>. Here are 18 reasons why we know you\u2019ll love it.<\/p>\n

1. Central Park location<\/strong> \u2013 Okay, let\u2019s start with the obvious. The city\u2019s iconic park is an NYC must-do, so what could be better than staying just a street away? Join the streams of runners, jump on a bike, or just enjoy it for its sightseeing awesomeness.<\/p>\n

2. An oasis in the middle of Manhattan<\/strong> \u2013 NYC is ah-mazing. But it can be intense. Think of 1 Hotel Central Park as your oasis away from the mayhem. Relax and recharge among the living green plants and thoughtful natural touches.<\/p>\n

3. Walking the talk<\/strong> \u2013 1 Hotel Central Park prides itself on sustainability, and it shows at every touchpoint. Respect for that. Impressively, the property features re-used materials, including local barn wood, antique bricks, and even wood from New York State water towers. The hotel\u2019s \u2018recycle everything\u2019 philosophy is brought to life through recycling boxes in your room, notepaper made of seeds that you can plant later on, wooden room keys, and reusable chalkboards in place of notepads, just to name a few of the enviro-friendly touches.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

4. Vertical garden wow-factor <\/strong>\u2013 I admit, I\u2019m a sucker for a building covered in greenery, and 1 Hotel does not disappoint in all its ivy-covered glory.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

5. Nature meets sleek luxe design <\/strong>\u2013 Don\u2019t think for a second that sustainable equals basic. 1 Hotel\u2019s interior design has serious wow-factor.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

6. That view <\/strong>\u2013 We score glimpses of Central Park from our room, which is pretty special. But watching the city\u2019s streets buzz with action from our box window is pretty great too.<\/p>\n
