We pride ourselves on original everything, don’t like chain restaurants and gimmicky concepts and that people come here from all over the world to see something that can only be found in New York. And, if there is a concept that has already been done that we want to bring here, we do it in a way that only our city can. That is no different than what we’re talking about in Brooklyn – an ice bar.
The highly anticipated Polar Lounge installation for 2023 is in full effect. Overlooking the rooftop’s skyline views of Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge, the experience features a glacial landscape of custom seating and sculptures each carved entirely from crystal clear ice. You heard that correct – ice!
To ensure that guests stay warm, The Polar Lounge is teaming up with luxury outerwear brand, Moose Knuckles, to provide sustainably sourced parkas from their iconic collection. As a mission-driven, sustainable lifestyle brand, 1 Hotels will donate a percentage of sales to the non-profit Oceanic Global, supporting their work to educate and protect our oceans and polar regions.
After experiencing the Polar Lounge, guests can warm up in Harriet’s Lodge, a retro ski-themed area within 1 Hotel’s Harriet’s Lounge. Decked out with furry blankets, dim candles, greenery and wooden details, Harriet’s Lodge provides a cozy atmosphere to warm up while still enjoying the New York City skyline. Those who use the lodge can enjoy seasonal cocktails and chef-curated snacks.
General admission for the lounge starts at $50 per person for a one-hour time slot, with general admission granting guests access to the rooftop and includes a complimentary drink upon entry, courtesy of Proximo Tequila. VIP table options are available and can sit six people in one of the premium ice lounges. VIP bookings include a complimentary cocktail for each guest courtesy of Proximo Tequila as well as a caviar amuse-bouche sustainably sourced from Pearl Street Caviar.
It’s an experience that others can emulate but nowhere can you experience this!
