The hotel’s signature cocktail bar, the Gold Room, is located in the Villard Mansion and transports guests to the opulent Gilded Age inside the two-story Renaissance-style venue. In a room with dramatic gilt ceilings, walls, and wainscoting, and a suspended balcony, built for times when the majestic space served as a music room, guests will enjoy craft cocktails with distinguished names like Carnegie and Hemingway. Additionally, the Gold Room boasts an assortment of unique cocktails, including the iconic “Art of the Martini” menu featuring a signature “Reserve Martini.”
Rarities is an intimate twenty-five-seat salon that offers an exclusive and elevated drinking experience catering to New York’s elite. The reservation-only venue, accessed through a discreet entrance just steps from the hotel’s courtyard, features an eclectic and abundant menu of exceptional champagnes, Prohibition-style bottled spirits, modern classics, and a connoisseur’s wine cellar.
Guests and visitors alike can stop in Lotte New York Palace’s iconic courtyard for seasonal drinks at their Winter Bar, Summer Bar, and Autumn Bar. Open for all to enjoy, the bar changes with the season, offering expertly crafted seasonal libations, classic favorites, nonalcoholic options, and sweet treats, such as Lotte New York Palace’s signature decadent cup of hot chocolate. Pastry Chef William Leonard has artfully perfected this timeless recipe inspired by the fond memories of sipping it in his grandmother’s kitchen.
