Rarities: Manhattan Bar & Lounge

Overview

Featuring an exclusive collection of extremely rare spirits, Rarities pays homage to the spirit of Henry Villard. An intimate, invitation-only hideaway discreetly hidden within The Palace, Rarities conjures the gracious entertaining style of the 19th-century railroad tycoon, whose network of contemporaries regularly visited his palatial Madison Avenue home and were welcomed with warm hospitality and good conversation. Today, New York City’s elite entertain associates and friends in much the same way, enjoying rare and pre-prohibition spirits, exceptional Champagnes, and a connoisseur’s wine cellar in what Condé Nast Traveler editors have dubbed “the world’s most exclusive hotel bar.”
