Concierge.com's insider take:
After a five-year hiatus, the bunkerlike lounge beneath Andre Balazs's Mercer Hotel is back in business and swankier than ever. After you locate the unassuming door marked 147 1/2, make it past the doorman, take a freight elevator down one flight and open two sets of doors, you will find yourself in a chic, cavernous party space with exposed brick, red banquettes, and a stripper pole. The decor may be spare, but the supermodels, socialites, designers, and the occasional member of the Strokes who frequent subMercer do a good job prettying the place up. Getting past the doorman is not an easy feat, so we suggest e-mailing inquiries@submercer.com and making a reservation.
Hours vary.
