Upon entering the twelve foot high dark oak door, a short tunnel leads to the incandescent atrium. From this core the night is elevated to the penthouse. The doors open to a modern and elegant 3,400 sq. ft. lounge.
The south glass wall opens to Chicago's gleaming skyline, which can be further accessed through a 600 sq. ft. terrace. NV Penthouse Lounge brings Chicago's breathtaking skyline within arms reach with the Chicago lights.
The view is better from the top.

While the bar is cool and I liked the penthouse feel (elevator ride and all), the most random thing happened on the night we went there. There was a scantily clad woman who was dancing with a metal grinder. Sparks were flying everywhere and it definitely didn't add to the atmosphere of the place. I couldn't enjoy my time there with this girl on stage. If I wanted to see that type of show, I would have gone somewhere else.

Went to a fundraising event here and it was a great place. Great staff, service, and location. It's a bit narrow but I prefer to go to a place where I can't get lost.

Great view, in the middle of everything. Great for Thursday - Saturday partying. Great drinks, ambiance. Come early. Next to Epic, Hubbard Inn, and across from Mercer 113. You have many options.

It is a really beautiful lounge with so many things going on...you see really cool and fascinating tattoos on the ceilings...terrific outside rooftop patio -- with awesome furnishings such as a swing and a fireplace with shards of glass. It is nice and roomy so it definitely is large...they always have various types of fun events hosted here. It has very dark decor but it is still beautiful and does not make the space seem so claustophobic at all.

Atmosphere is very cool upscale and simple clean with diverse people mingling around. The place is not very big, but nice to come here with a date or friends. Deejay plays good music. Bar has really delicious cocktails and bartender and manager are very very friendly not judgemental. People can dance or sit down on sofas spread out in several areas, even a small three-walled area just for few girlfriends to hang out, or you can go out on a small long narrow so-called rooftop deck that has white canopies cushioned wood benches for some privacy with amazing view of city skyline.
