19 Best Hotel Bars in NYC, From Classic Martini Haunts to Rooftops With Central Park Views | Condé Nast Traveler
"Since opening its doors in 2007, The Bowery Lobby at the Bowery Hotel has remained one of the trendiest places to grab drinks in downtown NYC. Complete with wood-paneled walls, spacious leather armchairs, and a variety of quirky antiques (and taxidermy) scattered about, this dimly lit space offers specialty cocktails, wine, beer, and an excellent selection of whisky. Frequented by hotel guests, celebrities, and locals alike, the bar makes for an excellent date night location, as well as a great place to catch up with friends, especially during cooler weather months, when the bar’s fireplace is alive and thriving. Added bonus: The Bowery Lobby also offers an extensive list of aperitivi and digestivi, and with regards to pricing, the bar’s signature cocktails all clock in under $20 a pop—a steal, with regards to other NYC-based hotel bar offerings." - CNT Editors, Vicki Denig
