Can't figure out what you should do this weekend? Let the Best Venues NY Team help! We've used our extensive knowledge of NYC event spaces to compile The 5 Best Hotel Cocktail Bars in NYC. These 5 spaces are perfect if you need to grab drinks with friends or even if you're looking for venue for an event. Read on to find out who made the cut.
Living Room at Park Hyatt
Our first pick is the Living Room at the Park Hyatt New York. Sit back and relax while you order a craft cocktail from one of their talented mixologists. Like its name suggests, the it has the residential feel of a New York City apartment. Don't forget to take advantage of the delicious bar bites menu.
The Aviary at Mandarin Oriental
Located on the 35th floor of the beautiful Mandarin Oriental, the Aviary will redefine the cocktail experience. Guests are treated to unbeatable views of Columbus Circle and Central Park, all while sampling inventive cocktails and tasty small plates. Unlike other spaces, the Aviary is a "restaurant-for-drinks," where else would guests be treated views to a glass enclosed Drink Kitchen where they can see cocktails being created.
Rarities at the Lotte New York Palace
The historic Lotte New York Palace is one of our favorite venues for weddings, but inside the gilded halls, you can also find yourself a great drink. Rarities is an intimate invite-only salon that takes us back to the old New York. Once inside, you'll have the opportunity sample one of kind bottles of bourbon or rye, made from factories that have ceased to exist.
The Gin Parlour at the Intercontinental New York Barclay
Are you a gin aficionado? Then we'd recommend The Gin Parlour at the Intercontinental New York Barclay. This elegant bar is home to more than 110 varieties of premium gin. Grab a seat at the bar to see how their skilled bartenders create specialty cocktails while they educate you on the history of gin. If you happen to get peckish while you sip, don't hesitate to take advantage of their food menu, all of their menu items are sourced with the most organic, local, and sustainable products possible.
Rooftop at Royalton Park Avenue
Located in New York's stylish NoMad neighborhood, our last pick is the Rooftop at Royalton Park Avenue. This space is great for intimate receptions or if you're just looking to grab a glass of wine and take advantage of the spectacular views. We love ordering their Artisanal Cheese Board and just relaxing! But if you're looking to have an event, you'll be happy to take advantage of their lavish furnishings and intimate decor.
