What People Are Saying About Cielo

Velvet rope? "Barbed wire" might be a more apt description. After sufficient grilling from the requisite outlandish bouncers, a narrow hallway illuminated by a single blue light leads into a sceney New York moment. With a maximum capacity of just 250, former Pacha DJ Nicolas Matar's club is both cozy and conducive to some serious grooving, even if its bar and doorstaff are not. The small space's ski chalet-meets-beach surf style--with warmly lit walls resembling insulating "logs," and the pool-blue, sunken dance floor as inviting as a mid-summer dip--caters to those seeking a rarefied…
Awful
by nyny111
I went here last Saturday. After having our bags, wallets checked for a while, my friend was let in. She was wearing a dress. I was wearing jeans, and the woman told me to hold up my arms. I said, "Are you kidding me?" She said, "No ma'am" and proceeded to touch my entire body. (I was not packing a gun in my bra. Did she really have to touch my breasts??) It happened so fast that I didn't have time to react. I grabbed my friend, and we left.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Basically strip searched at the door
Cielo is still king of the hood
by thatclubgirl21
I had come to Cielo 3 years ago and have a good time with my then boyfriend. now that i'm single and my girls and i like to party in the meat packing district, we decided to give Cielo a try again. Thank God we did. That hot boy at the door is a breath of fresh air in regards to the asses around town. i'd heard he was tough and remember him from the last time but he was so sweet to us (although we had to pay). ): the dj was pretty good, think his name was Ted paterson but the sound was insane. i dont remember leaving but that's a good thing sometimes. i'll definately be back to cielo . do they own any other places in the city?
- Pros: sound system, cutie at the door (looks like Lex Luthor).
- Cons: anno0ying security search when walking in and paying 425
The worst place in the country
by DirectorChris
We were one of the first people there. Dressed to the nines. Conceited doorman still insisted we purchase bottle service. There was nobody there and the music sucked!! I have been to dance clubs all over the country and all over the world and I would rate this the WORST club ever!!!! C'mon, this is no Studio 54! Get over yourselves! ANY place in NYC is better than this club!
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!! This place will be out of business in less than a year!!
- Pros: None
- Cons: Everything
The Details on Cielo
What to Drink:
Don't bother asking for a drink list and don't order anything too complicated from the perpetually stressed bartenders. Nicholas Feuillatte Palme D'Or Brut champagne is the libation of choice.
Know Before You Go:
With only nine banquettes, you won't find any spare nooks to store your layers. Coat check is a must.
