To receive a four- or five-Diamond designation from AAA means your hotel or restaurant is doing something pretty good.
The Aman New York in Midtown Manhattan is the newest hotel to join the prestigious AAA Five Diamond list. It is located on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street.
Meanwhile, eight hotels and eight restaurants earned AAA Four Diamonds this month.
Throughout the year, AAA Inspectors visit hotels and restaurants across North America, the Caribbean, and Costa Rica unannounced to objectively verify the 4 Cs of AAA Diamonds: Cleanliness, Comfort, Cuisine and Consistency.
It is prestigious in the culinary and lodging world as a Lombardi Trophy is to football.
