Bösendorfer Lounge

Positively high-​class. Great place to stop for a drink before or after a show at the Dr. Phillips or before dinner on a date night. On my last visit I felt a little underdressed, as we were having after-​work drinks and people in cocktail attire started to file in after 7pm. Can’t go wrong with a Grey Goose martini but I also enjoyed their variation on a Cosmopolitan, listed as «her martini» on the menu, made with Aviation gin, Lillet, raspberry and cranberry and served with a raspberry garnish.

Cool looking lounge place, would be perfect for a first date to get cocktails before dinner.
That being said — ordered the crab cake and while good was super overpriced for size.
Would go back if someone else was paying. Boom!

This place has a wonderful, almost romantic atmosphere. The bar food is quite good. The drinks though… Ugh. Very limited menu, and seems as if there’s always a «new» bartender. Love the restaurant though! And the lounge as I said, is a great place to sit! Just needs more quantity in the menus (both for drink and food).

Love this place, very nice place to meet up and have fun!

Elegant and very nice. Some of the best drinks I have ever had. Very romantic place to chill out. The hotel and bar was first class

After dinner at the Boheme, our waiter Samuel, found us a table in the lounge to reserve a spot as he said it would be crowded. He then gave the performer, Heather Rice, our wedding song and she surprised us with performing it as we had drinks! The Florida Mule and Georgia Spice are excellent drink choices. The apple crisp and coconut gelato were our choices for a late dessert. Both were delicious. We will definitely go back for the music and the great service provided from Samuel and the other lounge servers.

The Bösendorfer Lounge – like the Kessler Property hotels in general – strives to be classy and overall, it reaches its goals and our own. The selling point of the lounge I do find a bit quaint – the premise that they have one of very few Bösendorfer Imperial Concert grand pianos in the world. While these pianos are superb and yes, rather rare, anyone serious about piano music can tell you the pianist, material played, and acoustics of the location are of even greater import than the piano (I play piano and compose music for piano and have had music I’ve written in films, so I know whereof I speak here). It’s fine to brag a little about the piano, but Kessler Corp’s relentless pride in their pianos does get a chuckle from pianists I know pretty often. As to the piano jazz being played when I visited? Good, but not outstanding. Standards, of course, and nothing innovative like Eliane Elias or Ahmad Jamal. The pianist was very competent but brought nothing new to the material. In all honesty, had they bought a Yamaha grand it would have added a bright tone that is better for the space and lends more easily to jazz and pop/​rock standards. Until someone happens by to play some Ravel or Alkan, they won’t get their money’s worth out of the Bosie methinks.
However, those are piano nerd quibbles. The bar is lovely: intimate, classy, relaxed and everything it ought to be, really. The drinks are well-​crafted, prompt and hinged on tradition. It’s a setting that I can see pleasing many and disappointing very few. I didn’t try their bar food but it looked like a gussied-​up variant of standard hotel cuisine – flatbread pizzas for one. But they know what they’re up to with their drinks and while their Old Fashioned isn’t quite up there with The Matador’s (best I’ve had anywhere in the world) it’s tops enough. And if you do like piano jazz, you will have a blast, my qualms aside.

Excellent jazz lounge or supper club-​like ambiance. The drinks and apps are expensive for the quality of service but they do have flatbread pizza for $ten bucks which is excellent. Try the mushroom truffle oil– Delish!

Elegant and classy. I absolutely enjoyed myself here with my husband this morning. I cannot wait to return.
I woke up saying I wanted to go some where we could have brunch and talk. He chose this place and it turned out to be everything I wanted.
After valet parking we walked in and was greeted by one of the hotel attendants. One of the nice things about the lounge is that it’s inside the Grand Bohemian Hotel so you get the attention and care of someone staying at the hotel. That was pleasant. They showed us to the lounge and we were asked if we had a reservation. We didn’t. But, that wasn’t a problem. We got there around eleven in the morning so it wasn’t busy and we were seated immediately.
The first table we got we didn’t like so we asked to be seated some where else and they gladly obliged.
It wasn’t crowded in the lounge at all but around the buffet was. Even so, it didn’t bother us. We stood in line at the personalized omelet station behind only two people so the wait time was almost nothing. I ordered an omelet with egg whites, mushrooms, onions, and spinach which took the waiter a couple of minutes to cook up. They needed a little salt but since they didn’t have the kind of salt I like I passed. It was still enjoyable. Then I made my way over the the crab cakes that were being prepared on the spot. They were delicious, and the sauce that was drizzled onto my plate to accompany them topped it off. So, so, good. That and the arugula salad drizzled with pesto sauce had my mouth sanging for joy. Yes, I did say, «sanging». I also had crab legs, shrimp cocktail, waffles, and some to die for, crème brûlée. (I absolutely cheated with this one). And, I know, I know, sounds like a lot of food but in small portions it goes down without a fuss.
The mimosas kept coming and before my glass was empty I didn’t have to flag down anyone to refill it. It was great.
On Sunday’s they provide a full service buffet styled brunch that will have your eyes bulging out of your head at the many different options to choose from for only $ 45 per person. It’s worth it. And remember, you’re also paying for the experience.

This is a good place to relax and have a few drinks before seeing a show at DPCPA. The service is good, and the décor is very nice with plenty of comfortable seating. Pricing runs a little high, since it is a hotel bar after all, but it is not unreasonable.
The food at the restaurant is very good, but the bar menu is much more limited. The $ 14 ham sandwich is pretty small, and the $ 14 crab cake is tasty, but you only get a single average sized piece.
Overall the lounge is a fun place which wins on service and quality, but not on value.

Ambience is great. My little pizza is the worst in my life and I have eaten some bad ones. This tops it all. House cab is very good. I should have ordered a simple burger instead!

This is a beautiful lounge. It is full of truly amazing art. They have a nice diverse wine list and s lovely cocktail selection. The bartender Dianna was very pleasant.

If you enjoy the sound of a great piano, you won’t find a better one than here. This Bosendorfer is magnificent. The lounge itself is divided into two parts, the round entry area, where you can’t get away from the piano, and the more intimate bar area. However we like to dine at the adjacent restaurant. If you request a table near the entry, you can hear the piano just fine.

Fabulous ambiance, incredible food, and savory eye candy. This is the place everyone wants to be. Sunday brunches at Boheme are nothing short of heavenly.

Perhaps the prettiest cozy lounge in all of Orlando, nestled in the Boheme Hotel. The romantic dim lit elegant, high ceiling room is perfect to impress that special someone. Evenings feature a piano soloist and varied performers on weekends. Bring plenty of cash though, as this royal rush dosen’t come cheap! A lite food menu is available.

Amy my server/​bartender was awesome… Suggested the carpaccio and she was Spot ON!!! I loved it! Delicious and it is a must try! It’s our first time here and we WILL be back!!? She will take great care of you!

This is a very nice hotel bar. Everything is very upscale and comfortable. It is a big change from most of the downtown bars and definitely worth a trip to check out, perhaps on a special night out.

For a hotel bar this place was pretty decent.
Bartenders are friendly and on top of things. Decent older crowd. nice music. The pear martini was divine.
You can order food from the boheme as well. which is very good.
Dark gothic atmosohere with some very interesting artwork.
I’d make it a regular stop if I lived in the area.

Great bar! Well stocked, beautiful setting, and the bartenders are top top! The entertainment is great here too. Not sleepy lounge acts, but world-​class performers! I came last week and caught The Jazz Professors. They have a Top 40 Jazz album under their belts and they’re playing in a nice small place like this! The food from Boheme is excellent too. I came for the brunch the other day and it was wicked!

I stayed at The Grand Bohemian for a week so I became very good friends with the Bosendorfer Lounge. What a beautiful bar and hotel. I did my pregame here each night and even post game when I made it back in time. The bartenders are outstanding! Not only do they make a great Manhattan, but they give great restaurant recommendations and point you in the right direction for other outstanding watering holes.
