The Stayton Room

Cozy, intimate bar attached to The Lexington Autograph Collection hotel (on Lex and 48th) but not your average lobby bar! Beautiful inside, dimly lit mood lighting with ample seating to get cozy or hang with the gang.Caveat: This review is based on one round of drinks I had with my bro while waiting on the rest of our party to head out for the night. BUT...those 2 drinks were da bomb!We ordered the Slayton's Secret and the Tequila Migos - pricey pricey but AMAZINGLY YUMMY and such a unique combo of flavors - SO GOOD! Whoever the mixologist was that created their cocktail menu is a GENIUS!This is not a place to go to pound down drinks but if you want to impress a date or enjoy the sleek elegance of a beautiful bar, this is the place. And because it IS a hotel lobby bar, while it's got that elegant feel, it's cool, comfy and casual - not stuffy or high brow. (I was in jean shorts and a tee after a day of sightseeing.)Their specialty cocktails are about 20 bucks each but worth it, beer and wine are reasonably priced and the bar fare and small plate dishes affordable too (though I can't comment on portion size). Service was excellent. Our waitress was attentive and super friendly and even made a special stop-by just to ask us how we liked our drinks.Definitely worth an evening stop in. It might just become your go-to favorite!

I originally wanted to go to this bar because of the happy hour listed on their website. When we sat down we were told that the happy hour on the website and on their menu is not accurate and the only thing on happy hour was wine and light beer. My sister and I still ordered a Negroni that was on the happy hour menu, thinking instead of $10 as the price it may be slightly more expensive which is fine. When the bill came our normal Negronis were $24 each. When we inquired about the price the bartender was rude and explained she put 3 ounces of alcohol in it, hence the price. We did not ask for extra nor did we order a signature cocktail. It was ridiculous and never going back.

The food definitely was not worth the price. I got a chicken quesadilla for $25. The chicken still had bones in it and tasted so bland.The service was pretty good. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. The ambiance was stylish and hip. The only reason why I went to the restaurant was to use the $35 credit from the Lexington Hotel. It definitely was not worth using the credit. I would've rather paid out of pocket for better food at a different restaurant.

Definitely not a "speakeasy," more like a hotel lobby bar, but still offers nice house cocktails (although expensive). Nice live music, bustling vibe, cute decor. Could use more staff, though service was kind.

Wow! Stopped by and got a few drinks at the bar. Kush was amazing and a fantastic bartender. Definitely recommend visiting here for a drink even if you aren't staying at the beautiful Lexington Hotel. Wonderful live music and ambiance and great service! Will be back again next time im in New York!

We came here for an after dinner drink since we were staying at the Lexington for the night. My sister got the gin and tonic and I got an espresso martini. The drinks were good, but they were $20+ a cocktail. They also charge a 18% service charge when you get the bill, so no need to give an additional tip. Waitresses were attentive for the bar being busy.

The Stayton Room connects to the Lexington Hotel. It's a hotel bar, not a destination bar. If the hotel didn't give drink vouchers, we wouldn't have gone in.The cocktails are NYC expensive so the voucher will only cover one. My NYC Sour was well-made so that counts for something. The server was a nice girl who helped another group with a photo.For a Friday night, there was no atmosphere other than hotel guests. The decor had cheesy floral arrangement.Unless you are staying at the Lexington, there are so many other options- don't bother coming here.

A bar by the left side of the Lexington Hotel lobby! Open for breakfast/brunch in the AM for staying guests here, complimentary for certain Marriott Bonvoy.After 4 PM, light snack, cocktail and basic mediocre/minimalist wine list. Good service by the breakfast crew, put up with hotel guests which 8 out of 10 were not tipping the people cleaning/bussing the tables! Sad! Late night drinks were $15-$18 each, on service! If you are looking for good wine and crafted cocktail, not here! But just a quick nightcap post dinner, on the way to your room, it's conveniently here!

Best bar in New York. While everyone is worried about making money- this team asks "why are you here". Amazing. Kush and Mania over and over again have been amazing.

Service was non-existent, with automatic 18% tip included on cocktails. Sat myself. Server was at table twice in 2 hours and the bar was empty. Sapphire Martini was $31. Had to go up to bartender to get check, only to be told to wait another 10 minutes back at table. Will never go back. Many, many better options in close proximity.
