The Martini Lounge
Description
Inside The Knickerbocker Hotel, the Martini Lounge offers a refined escape steeped in cocktail history. Elegant yet inviting, the space channels the glamour of the Gilded Age while celebrating its most famous legacy: according to longstanding lore, the dry martini was invented here around 1911 by bartender Martini di Arma di Taggia, cementing the hotel’s place in cocktail culture. Today, that heritage lives on through curated experiences like “Martini Minute,” held daily from 5:00pm to 5:15pm, where guests enjoy complimentary mini martinis. The atmosphere becomes even more vibrant on Wednesdays, when live jazz from 5:30pm to 7:30pm fills the lounge with timeless New York energy. Whether sipping a classic or soaking in the ambiance, the Martini Lounge blends history, sophistication, and a touch of legend.
