The Scene
You'll probably need a raise if you plan to hang out often at the bar of the swank Soho Grand Hotel. Its comfy chairs and clubby atmosphere don't come cheap, with pricey martinis served in tumblers and a confidently overpriced selection of appetizers on the menu. The large floor area means that service can be slow even when the lounge isn't busy, although you have to sympathize with the waitresses who clip back and forth in their stiletto boots.
The Draw
The well-chosen roster of downtempo DJs attracts a crowd of stylish after-work drinkers, who blend seamlessly with the well-heeled hotel guests. Try a superb Grand Margarita (Sauza Commemorativo, Cointreau, fresh lime and OJ) or the Perfect 10 (stoli vanilla, pineapple juice, lemon and lime), and soak in the special-occasion atmosphere that makes it all feel worthwhile.

I come here at least once a week to have dessert and a cocktail with my girlfriends. The scene is dressy, yet relaxed; the atmosphere is welcoming, yet chic. They are very accomodating here - one time they let us sit at a table without a reservation (sorry, my group of hot friends were overcrowding the bar), which was great. The crowd is mixed with the young and the old, the tourists and the locals, the hipsters and the not-so-hip folk. It's a great place to unwind after a long week, and the drinks are delicious! I would highly recommend it for a low-key night.

This place was alright. The music was alright, they did not play the most current up-to-date music, but this could have just been the night I went. It's definitely a lounge setting with couches in the middle of the floor and you could pretty much dance anywhere. I think I would give this place another try....
