“Sure it's a hotel bar, but the lounge area has great vibes, comfortable seating, and the drinks were delicious. I recommend stopping in for a cocktail 🍸”
“Excellent experience at the restaurant bar. I want to give a special thanks to Lucy, Omar, and Rafa for their amazing service. They were always friendly, attentive, and had great energy. The drinks were perfectly made, and they made the night even more special. Definitely top-notch service. 100% recommended!”
“From the moment I arrived, the entire staff embodied charm and hospitality. The doorman, valet, servers, and my waitress were all exceptionally polite and attentive, creating a seamless and welcoming experience. The service flowed effortlessly — exactly the level of excellence I expect and deeply appreciate.”
“Wonderful cocktails. Stopped after a show at the Cadillac Theatre.”
“The service is impressively good and the restroom is spotlessly clean. I recommend the cocktail Dos Amigos.”
“I had an amazing time at this bar! The atmosphere was incredible, with a perfect blend of cozy and lively. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The drinks were expertly crafted, and I highly recommend trying their signature cocktails — they were absolutely delicious! The music added to the vibe, and the overall experience was fantastic. I will definitely be coming back soon!”
“Great unpretentious classy bar inside art deco hotel lobby; experienced staff friendly people and they accommodated on a last minute visit. Shout out to Rafael for prompt service and that glass of wine we very much enjoyed”
“Cozy lobby bar with roaring 20s inspired esthetics and amazing cocktails. I enjoyed the inventive smoked version of 'old fashioned'.”
“Best hotel bar ever with plenty of sitting area, and is not only for guests of the hotel. The staff is so nice and they give you a lot of suggestions of things to do around the area. También hablan español! The times on Google Maps are wrong, they're open every day 4pm to 11pm”
“Lucy is a fantastic bartender. Delicious and strong cocktails just like I like them. The bar is located by the check in desk. She is super personable and knowledgeable. Excellent customer service. The bar itself is on the smaller side, yet has a surprisingly large alcohol selection. There is also plenty of seating. It’s definitely worth stopping by if you are attending an event or staying at the hotel.”
“Rafael @ the bar is the GOAT. I spent 2 weeks in Rio last month, and the Caipirinha Rafael made me was 5x better than the several ones I tried in Brazil. He knows his stuff! Great service & accommodation. He has never missed on a drink he made me in the last 9 times I have stayed @ the hotel.”
