The Gutter

   Welcome Party Location

The Gutter, featuring a two-lane bowling alley, is inspired by Henry Frick’s personal bowling alley at the base of the Frick Museum and welcomes guests to a whimsical escape serving classic cocktails including a custom-made gravity-fed ball return system, elegant pool tables, shuffleboard, skee ball and basketball.

Lou Lou’s Jungle Room

Ceremony & Reception Location

Reviving the historic Mississippi Room, the space features a restored 1940s clamshell stage and sunken hardwood dance floor, with performances curated by the Casbah’s Tim Mays. The iconic circular bar, featured in Top Gun, serves classic and creative cocktails, welcoming guests with or without tickets.

Beginners Diner

Beginners Diner has an authentic drawing that feels as if it has always been there with the hotel built around the concept. The interiors act as an installation of a traditional diner from the 1940s, and details down to the placemats, flatware, and fountain drinks transport guests into this historic era with a diner historian consulted on the details.

Open 24hrs

Lobby Bar

The Lobby Bar is circular in design under the soaring glass atrium flooding the space with light and is anchored by the Atlas statue and surrounded by a hand-painted ceiling by Brazilian-based artist Joāo Incerti. The menu features thoughtful, classic throwback cocktails served in an environment created to foster connectivity between visitors and locals.

Quixote

Quixote is an Oaxacan-inspired concept and Mezcalería designed with monastic qualities that envelop guests with an agnostic sense of worship. The entire space was created from a decommissioned Catholic church in Mexico and reconstructed to showcase dark wood paneling, rough cobblestones that dot the entryway, flickering Santa Maria candles, rich stained-glasswindows and baroque pews and banquettes surrounding the pulpit-inspired bar.

Pool Bar

The Pool Bar on the property is both composed and excessive with a sun-drenched stone patio cascading down into the checkered pool and connecting garden-like deck surrounded by abundant, overgrown bougainvillea, citrus, and jasmine. Brightly colored and scalloped umbrellas shade striped chaise lounges and rattan clamshell chairs along the pool’s perimeter, all designed to evoke 1980’s luxury via the Amalfi Coast.
