Top NYC Lounges for the month of May 2012  |
 Cielo 18 Little W. 12th Street (b/w 9th & 10th Avenues) | New York, NY 10014  212-645-5700 www.cieloclub.com Cielo is a longtime Meatpacking District favorite that sets itself apart from other nightlife venues by not having the hassles of a large club or being bothered with ropes, checkpoints or rules for their non existing VIP rooms. It’s a place for mature adults, the Wall Street types in untucked button-downs, to enjoy the worlds best DJs and a great sound system pumping house and techno beats. Grammy award winning Louie Vegas brings house-music from all over the world creating energy from the underground scene reminiscent of Shelter and Sound Factory Bar. The packed sunken dance floor is located in the center of the club, surrounded by banquettes decked out in brown and beige suede. There is also a smoking patio out back. |

 Tenjune 26 Little West 12th Street (Near Washington Street) | New York, NY 10014  646-624-2410 www.tenjunenyc.comTucked underneath the equally glam STK Steakhouse, the VIP vibe lounge, Tenjune, is an intimate space charged with sexual texture-zebra-prints, wavy wood grains and marble accents, as well as walls of violet velvet in the semi-private Purple Room. The horseshoe-shaped dance floor is surrounded by two tiers of tables and a D.J.-performance stage. Celebrity DJs are easy to come by, such as Lindsay Lohan and Diddy. The place is flooded with lots of stylish, beautiful people who enjoy and know how to party and the location is often the scene for special events. |
