The Bar/Lounge at The Bellevue Hotel

"The hotel's lower floors feature a food court, an upscale sports bar, and high-end stores like Tiffany and Ralph Lauren"

"There is also a bar by the same name, which showcases art by local talents"

""Old-world elegance, personified" sums up this "grand" 1904 hotel on the Avenue of the Arts, whose "wonderful", "professional" staff ensures it retains its "character and history" while offering "modern" touches; "quiet" rooms boast "high ceilings" and "elegant" marble baths, while perks include "great happy-hour prices" at XIX bar/lounge on the 19th floor and complimentary access to the "amazing" Sporting Club downstairs"

"For now rooms are decorated in American Empire style with federal reproductions: large armoires hiding minibars and flat-screen TVs with DVD players, large dedicated desks, phones with voice mail and data ports, and spacious sitting areas with sofas and period chairs"
