Celebrating innovation, excellence, and transformative travel experiences worldwide
NEW YORK, Oct. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Mark Hotel is the only hotel in New York City, and one of only two hotels in the entire United States, named on the prestigious list of The World's 50 Best Hotels 2025, announced last night in a captivating ceremony at Billingsgate in London. The awards highlight properties redefining the art of hospitality across six continents, from pioneering urban destinations to remote escapes offering unforgettable guest experiences.
"It is an extraordinary honor to represent New York and the United States as the only hotel in New York, and one of only two in the country, named among The World's 50 Best Hotels," says Elon Kenchington, General Manager of The Mark Hotel. "It's a reflection of our team's commitment to crafting a preeminent New York City experience for our guests, and this accolade not only honors the people who bring the hotel to life every day, but also the artists, designers, and guests who inspire us. Most importantly, it recognizes the thoughtfulness and dedication of a community that makes The Mark not just a hotel, but a place where experiences and memories are created."
Renowned as a cultural touchstone on Manhattan's Upper East Side, The Mark Hotel blends high French style with imaginative New York spirit, elevating luxury hospitality experiences for global citizens and New Yorkers alike. Located in a 1927 landmark building steps from Central Park, world class museums, galleries and boutiques, the hotel draws a global clientele of artists, designers, celebrities, dignitaries, media leaders, and discerning travelers. Beyond its iconic address, The Mark stands apart for its playful yet sophisticated and exciting amenities, from private sailboat excursions in New York Harbor and bespoke floral carts to after-hours access to The Met, curated shopping experiences at Bergdorf Goodman and Jean-Georges' signature Haute Dog Cart, creating experiences that extend far beyond the guestroom.
With 106 guest rooms, 44 suites, and three penthouses—including the largest hotel penthouse in North America—the property is also home to dining by Jean-Georges Vongerichten, the New York outpost of Parisian restaurant Caviar Kaspia, and a salon by Frédéric Fekkai. This fusion of art, fashion, and world-class service has made The Mark not only a premier destination for discerning travelers but also a vibrant hub for the city's social and creative scenes.
Emma Sleight, Head of Content for The World's 50 Best Hotels, comments: "As the hotel scene continues to innovate, The World's 50 Best Hotels 2025 also represents an evolution. The growth of the 50 Best Voting Academy through the appointment of new Academy Chairs and geographical regions, the inaugural 51-100 list and new special awards will elevate the ranking and celebrate even more elements of the hotel experience."
The World's 50 Best Hotels 2025 ranking reflects votes from the 50 Best Hotels Academy, a group of more than 800 hoteliers, travel journalists, educators, and seasoned luxury travelers.

THE MARK HOTEL CELEBRATED IN THE WORLD'S 50 BEST HOTELS 2025 PRESTIGIOUS RANKING
Featuring EaseClean technology and an open-top design, the Ease S1 addresses common pain points in maintenance, safety and feline comfort.
LOS ANGELES, April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Oneisall, a global leader in intelligent pet technology, today announced the launch of the Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box, designed to address the often-overlooked challenges of deep cleaning and maintenance in automated litter boxes.
While many self-cleaning litter boxes reduce daily scooping, they can still be difficult to deep clean and maintain. Developed in response to consumer feedback, the Ease S1 features a modular, easy-to-sanitize design intended to reduce hidden waste buildup, simplify disassembly and create a more cat-friendly experience.
"Most self-cleaning litter boxes solve daily scooping, but create new challenges when it comes to deep cleaning," said Tony Tang, Chief Product Officer at Oneisall. "The Ease S1 was designed not just to automate, but to eliminate the hidden mess that pet owners struggle to reach and clean."
Designed for True Cleanability
The Ease S1 introduces EaseClean technology through a modular design that allows users to easily remove and clean all key waste-contact components, making deep cleaning faster and more effective. A full-cover litter pad and stainless-steel litter guard help reduce urine leakage, dust accumulation and waste buildup in hard-to-reach areas.
A More Comfortable Experience for Cats
The product also features an open-top design that supports more natural litter behavior and may help reduce stress for cats that are uncomfortable in enclosed spaces. The unit offers a cabin that is 32% larger than standard models and accommodates cats weighing up to 30 pounds, making it suitable for larger breeds or multi-cat households.
Enhanced Safety and Everyday Convenience
For convenience, the Ease S1 includes an 11L waste bin and is designed to support up to 14 days of maintenance-free use. A dedicated tracking mat further helps contain litter and improve cleanup around the box.
To address safety concerns commonly associated with automated litter boxes, the Ease S1 is equipped with nine precision sensors, including radar, weight, infrared and motor monitoring. The cleaning cycle automatically pauses when a cat approaches and resumes only after the pet has safely moved away.
The system is compatible with multiple litter types, including bentonite and mineral litter, with an optional 12 mm baffle for tofu or mixed litter. Its precision cleaning algorithm is designed to save up to 30% on litter.
Pricing and Availability
The Oneisall Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box will be available beginning March 31, 2026, through oneisall.com and Amazon. The product carries an MSRP of $229.99 and will be offered at a launch price of $199.99 for a limited time.
