You'll want to book a parking spot in their garage on SpotHero before you go.
Bar is closed in the morning, but restaurant on 16 will serve you drinks on the couches outside.

Pros:Great view of the city. As a party of two you'll probably be sitting directly by the window.

For a great lounge in NYC try the Lobby Lounge in the Manderin Oriental Hotel on the Upper West Side.  Great atmosphere, great view (overlooks Columbus Circle). Make a reservation to be safe.  And while you're in the area, walk around the shops at Columbus circle. Really nice, especially around the holidays.  And finally (this was one of my best dates) go to the jazz club (Jazz at Lincoln Center I think). Very upscale, and really cool experience.

Went on a few dates there, it's beautiful but tricky to get a reservation or a seat in the lounge though, usually they shuffle you off to the bar right next door.

Yes, at least back in '08 they could not help.

+2

I dated for a while and dated many girls. This was my usual 1st date hot spot. I would usually call beforehand and be sure the lounge and bar were both open. The lounge is best choice. The bar has music which can be quite loud at times.

Most people I had spoken to at the time had never heard of it. Only once did I meet another date there. That's about it... aside from the date where my friend and I scheduled to be there at the same time.. his date actually knew who I was via her brother! Once I had someone flirt with my date right in front of me in the elevator.

Parking was never a problem, always found something on the street on or around that block. Worst case scenario, you can walk in the adjoining mall and grab a drink and just sit and watch the people walk by.

Also, don't forget that there a chance for celebrity sighting at that hotel, which is always good for a date.  I saw a certain prutza singer coming out of the hotel last week.

I found it to be too loud - prob. b/c I was shuffled to the bar. One of my faves was (and still is for a chill) the Lounge in the Tribeca Grand http://www.tribecagrand.com/image-gallery/. Also, The Tea Lounge in Park Slope http://www.tealoungeny.com/about.
