Guests at Lotte New York Palace will find that the magic of Masquerade — the immersive reimagining of The Phantom of the Opera — extends well beyond the stage and into the glass. The Gold Room, the hotel’s toast to the Gilded Age, is offering two bespoke cocktails that capture the romance, drama and intrigue of the production.
From the sparkling elegance of the vodka-based Angel of Music (recipe below) to the bold, seductive allure of The Masquerade bourbon drink, each sip invites guests deeper into the fantasy. Priced at $34 each, the cocktails offer an elevated pre-show ritual for both guests and locals.
For a fully immerse experience, Lotte New York Palace offers two overnight packages. The Masquerade package, which includes custom designed masks by Nicola Formichetti in collaboration with Chris Habana, a welcome note from “The Host,” and Champagne or signature cocktails in The Gold Room upon arrival. The Royal Masquerade package elevates the escape with a stay in the Towers Suites, a dozen red roses and bespoke cocktail moments for two.
