This place was beautiful. The staff was awesome. The bar prices were absolutely ridiculous. I ordered a double Basil Hayden on the rocks and it was $30. I just need to point out that a bottle of Basil Hayden 750 ML sells retail for $24.99. this spirit is distilled by Jim Beam, it is not imported, (it is made 2 states away) it is not aged any further, it is a smaller batch bourbon and it retails for $24.99 per bottle not glass. $12, $14, $16 even $18 dollars would have been ok. I understand that it's a hotel bar, I get that prices are a little higher but seriously you should never charge more for what you can fit in a glass than the bottle cost. Now I understand why the prices are not on the menu. Oh yes one more detail to point out, they measured each one of those shots so it was not even a full glass. I travel and it frustrates me how much bar prices vary. One place will have local prices others sneak their prices in to make up for lost cost in other areas. Food cost should run around 33-1/3 and liquor cost around 40.
