They only have 3 Manhattan Suites and 1 Penthouse Suite. But these suites are unofficially excluded from the upgrade program and aren't bookable online. If you want to book one of these suites you have to contact the hotel's sales team directly. As a Plat RA I've been quoted $1200+ per night for the Manhattan Suite and $1500+ per night for the Penthouse.
