[Ed. Note: The Bryant Park Hotel has undergone some changes, most of them for the better. But Hotel Maven Mnot wasn't too pleased with the crowd at the hotel's Cellar Bar.]

I dropped by the Bryant Park Hotel when I was in NYC last month, because I was in the neighbourhood and remembered the vaulted cellar bar. Boy, was I in for a shock; it was full of the bridge-and-tunnel crowd, with a DJ playing really bad 80's hits to a crowd that was just a bit too enthusiastic about them. We left quickly.

In the hotel's defense we hear Saturday night is the better night to go and your chances of hearing Living on a Prayer are slim to none.
