The first Aman resort, Amanpuri, opened in Thailand in 1988, on a hillside overlooking the Andaman Sea. It was intended to be a sanctuary, a place of calm and aesthetic refinement. Other resorts followed, in Bali at first and then elsewhere in Asia. But the formula was the same: exquisite pavilions, with Zen-inspired interiors, set in pristine natural surroundings. The group’s first new city hotel was Aman Tokyo, which debuted in 2014. The ethos hadn’t changed, but now the jungle was urban. Aman’s latest attempt to create an oasis of serenity in a major city, Aman New York, opened in August.
