"We know what you’re thinking, another bar attached to the Hotel Ulysses? But as soon as you enter Bloom’s, you’ll know something good is going to happen tonight. Even if that’s just drinking an ice-cold martini in plush velvet booths. The mirrored walls, silver palm trees, and purple seating give a naughty, fun ’70s LA vibe. It makes you want to gamble, or maybe just sip your cocktail, snack on warm olives, and people-watch. There’s always a good mix of locals and hotel guests, meaning you’ll get a good story if you chat up a neighbor." - michele berry
