We knew where to go for an amazing drink and a delectable bite to eat, The Stinger! On our second visit we delighted in the Queen Bee Punch Bowl for 4 and Chunky Lobster Guacamole! Fantastic treats! The Punch Bowl offered plenty to drink for 4, 2-3 glasses each. The guac was tremendously good. The bar atmosphere is fun and it was not overly crowded. Service was friendly and quick. Oh, try the nuts! Smokey, spicy and so addictive. If you are in Hell's Kitchen or the Theater District (or near 44 & 8) stop in!

We have been staying at the intercontinental and have been to The Stinger every evening. The staff are so welcoming, friendly and attentive. Eddie this evening has gone the extra mile to ensure we’ve done everything we should whilst visiting New York & recommending so many places before we leave!

10/10! The food is delicious. This is the blackened salmon. The cocktails are deeply curated for taste and dazzle. Go there before the show or head over to one of the hottest jazz spots in the city-Birdland!

Had a smoked cocktail and chicken wings, then the full breakfast buffet the next morning. Smoked cocktail came out in a large smoke filled glass. Pretty neat display. Everything was delicious, the buffet had honey from the apiary on thier rooftop, berries, smoked salmon and all the eggs, meats and pastries seemed fresh.

The food & drinks are wonderful here, but our server, Eddie, truly made our experience memorable. He handled a party with several food allergies with great charm & humor. A delight.

We had a full buffet breakfast during our stay at the intercontinental hotel in NYC . Our waiter was very attentive and brought coffee and juice right away. We went to help ourselves to the extensive buffet. The choices were great. Pastries, yogurt, fruit, oatmeal with all the accompaniments, cold cereal, eggs, bacon, potatoes! More than you could hope for on a Saturday morning.
