Lobby Bar at Times Square EDITION
At Times Square EDITION · 9F
A dark, burnished room at the center of the hotel where evenings start for guests who've figured out that the EDITION's ground floor is better than most of Midtown's independent bars.
Neighborhood
Midtown South · Times Square
Atmosphere
Dark wood, low light, the kind of soundtrack that reads the room and adjusts as the night shifts. The EDITION's ground floor operates like an independent bar with none of the effort of finding one.
Key features
The bartenders calibrate the music with the same attention they give the drinks, which means the bar sounds different at 7pm than at 11. That attentiveness is the difference between a bar that's been designed and one that's been edited. This one has been edited.

About the hotel
Ian Schrager's editorial eye goes to work on Times Square's most overstimulating corner, designing a hotel that feels genuinely detached from the noise outside. The interiors lean European in sensibility without pretending to be somewhere else. You stay here because you want Times Square on your terms, not on its.

The Terrace & Outdoor Gardens
Restaurant · Terrace
Over a thousand plants suspended above Times Square, functioning as both garden and acoustic technology. The vegetation absorbs enough sound that you can actually hear a conversation without raising your voice.

Paradise Club
Bar · NightClub
Dinner theater in the basement where the boundary between performer and audience doesn't exist as a concept. Each night runs differently, which means the same show twice isn't actually the same show.
