| - That Wednesday night, our attempt to find Marquee @ The Cosmo was Fail. We got on the elevator with red lighting, but couldn't find the club. It began to feel like we were being watched/filmed/in a cube made up of one-way mirrors, & my paranoia eventually had me assuming that the elevator was some type of 'bouncer' elevator that takes uncool/unhot people on a ride that always leads right back to the ground floor. lol.
We gave up & went straight to The Chandelier, where we found out that Marquee was closed. Or so they told us. Hmm. Being a gigantic, sparkling chandelier that turns white/champagne/pink/purple & hues in between (easy to see who their target market is), the bar is hard to miss. I'm guessing the person that came up with the concept was lying on the floor, spacing out with his party friends & staring up at the chandelier..& his friends were all like OMG a giant chandelier that's also a bar!?!!!? you're crazy but sOOo brilliant. Thanks for making it a reality.
You'll find the bar around the center of the hotel, on the ground floor near the lobby, I think. We passed some slot machines on the way there. I thought the concept was pretty cool, having never seen/been in anything like it before. My sister thought it had this 70's disco vibe to it, which she wasn't too crazy about.
We ordered 4 cosmos (we figured this would be the best drink to order at The Cosmo....that, & every rare night out is an ode to SATC, for us), & I remember nice female servers with backless tops. The Chandelier is a pretty place for relaxing & having a drink or few with your girlfriends/gay friends, to set the mood for the night or maybe enjoy that 1 last drink before calling it a night. It's definitely a beautiful space, perfect for photo ops. I see myself going back there for that.
