Should Auld Acquaintances be Forgot, Invite Them to Dinner

Maybe you’d like to go out but don’t want to deal with the hassle of the crowds.

The Hotel On Rivington will let you and your twenty closest friends celebrate in its private dining rooms. The $15,000 price tag includes five hours of open bar, an additional five bottles of vodka, and five bottles of Cristal champagne for the table. You can also venture to the Penthouse on the twentieth floor to mingle with the regular partygoers and take in what many have deemed the best view in the city. The hotel’s Lavant East restaurant will also serve dinner and tailor the menu to your party’s preferences.
