Despite the name, there are no rooms: Hotel Delmano is a dark, speakeasy-style cocktail bar on Berry Street, built for quiet conversation. Everyone is seated — there is no standing at the bar — which keeps the room calm even on busy nights.

Drinks are excellent and priced accordingly. It is the kind of place to bring someone on a third date, or to end a long dinner nearby with one more round in the low light.

Editor’s tip

Go early on a weeknight, when a seat is easiest to find.
