The best Old Fashioned in Midtown

I stayed three nights for a conference and never needed to leave the hotel. The bartenders remember your order, the lighting is perfect for a quiet client meeting, and the fireplace seating is unbeatable on a cold evening.

Refined and never rushed

A genuinely elegant room. Excellent wine list, attentive but invisible service, and just enough live piano to set a mood without making conversation impossible.

Great for work, pricey

Reliable WiFi and plenty of outlets made this my evening office. Cocktails are exceptional but the prices add up. Worth it for the atmosphere.
