The Bar/Lounge at Palihotel Melrose

"On-site facilities include Palikitchen, serving comfort food and artisan coffee and tea; Thai Thai for Thai massages; and a blow-dry bar --- yep, that’s right, a bar devoted to blowing dry your hair! A private courtyard, pet-friendly policies and a 24-hour concierge round out the perks"

"'s newest brand of hotels have made the most of the small spaces, from the 150-square-foot lobby "minibar" to the deconstructed closets in guest rooms"

"Eliot—is a sceney brunch and dinner spot for hip locals, and the lobby lounge becomes a lively bar by evening"

"At night the lobby and terrace take on a quietly clubby lounge feel, animated by the gentle ba-boomp of acoustic rock"

"The location may be unexpected and the space a bit small, but inside lays 32 impeccably-designed rooms, indoor and outdoor lounge areas including an alfresco courtyard and upstairs salon, and homey charm that makes you want to curl up with a book in every nook and cranny"

"Onsite Thai massage, Dean and Deluca-stocked minibars, and Southern comfort food at The Hart and The Hunter restaurant are cool perks, but the location smack in the middle of the Melrose Avenue shopping district is the selling point"

"A fun weekend-only bar specializes in frose, and is a new addition for 2017"
