19 Best Hotel Bars in NYC, From Classic Martini Haunts to Rooftops With Central Park Views | Condé Nast Traveler
"For a taste of the city’s most luxurious bar offerings—and copious amounts of crystal all around you—look no further than the gleaming bar at the Baccarat Hotel. In addition to afternoon tea service and dinner, The Bar offers an extensive wine list (including one of the most extensive champagne offerings in the country), specialty cocktails, and all-day dining spearheaded by two Michelin-starred chef Gabriel Kreuther. Offerings range from the bright and fruit-forward Luz Negra (Bacardi Ocho, Tesseron Composition Cognac, blackberry, coconut, and acid-adjusted pineapple) to more spirit-forward libations such as La Dame de Coeur (Laphroaig 10-year, Carpano Antica, Cappelletti, bitters, and Bowmore 18-year Spritz). Whether indulging at the 60-foot bar or at the Grand Salon next door, sipping straight from crystal-cut cocktail glasses has never tasted so good." - CNT Editors, Vicki Denig
