How to Rest and Relax with The James NoMad

National Relaxation Day 

Summer in New York City can be a lot: a lot of subway commutes, a lot of crowded streets with tourists and locals, a lot of long lines, and a lot of high humidity. These facets of the city can make anybody long for a little peace and quiet. Luckily, like an oasis in the middle of the summer, we have National Relaxation Day on August 15th! Here at The James NoMad, we celebrate relaxation every day! No matter when you visit us, you can unwind thanks to our many amenities and neighborhood perks.
