To help find top-north atmosphere, “perfect cocktails” and safe nightlife, boo.com produced a list of the “world’s coolest hotel bars” which included two US representatives:

• The Ritz-Carlton, Battery Park in New York, which the site says is among New York City’s most popular sights. “The Ritz Carlton’s trendy Rise Bar, which boasts a phenomenal view of New York Harbor and the Statue of Liberty.” The site says visitors “see a stunning scene as daylight turns to dusk and bright lights dance gracefully across the tranquil waters.”

• Marriott Gas-Lamp in San Diego is located in the “fresh, open air atop the Marriott Gas-Lamp hotel,” offering a 360-degree view of the city that includes a panorama of the ocean and a phenomenal birds-eye view of Petco Baseball Park.
