First of all Eduardo is a gem, and was very accomodating and patient with me with my many questions during the planning process. The venue was amazing with a spectacular view. I had my 50th birthday party there, wirh 50 people. I had a full catered dinner, photo booth and dessert table. The event was a success and everyone raved about the venue. You will love it too!
Paola Z. booked a team retreat for 8 people
We were here last year and we came back this year because of how great the space was for our team building retreat. I highly recommend.
Ari S. booked an event for 100 people
Had an amazing time and absolutely loved the space. Amazing views and a great overall time
Barbara G. booked an event for 35 people
I had my 50th Birthday party here atvthe Skylounge with approximately 35 people. The space was amazing & the views spectacular. It was perfect for my guests, which was comprised of sports enthusiasts and party goers, so the tv’s and game room provided additional breaks from the partying. Eduardo was very receptive and answered all of my inquiries! Overall a great experience and no regrets. The only issue I had was that the concierge was not at the front desk for at least 30 minutes when we were leaving and needed our ID to return the game items, but wasn’t a huge setback.
Katara L. booked a 40th birthday party for 75 people
What an amazing night we had! This space was perfect for the 40th birthday party I hosted. Prior to the event Eduardo was very responsive. I requested to view the room to assist with decorating and the staff at 1155 Ripley were so nice and accommodating. The day of, everything went well. We used two of the monitors - one to show a message throughout the party and the other shows the NCAA football game. We had four cocktail tables in the largest area of the room and lined the walls with the other tables and chairs. We brought in a step and repeat and had dessert station. The room is gorgeous and our guests and most importantly the guest of honor were all pleased and impressed. There was room for it all. We had approximately 45 guests but there was space for many more. I highly recommend this spot. Keep in mind that you will need to have a designated person to assist with letting your guests on the elevator, but it wasn’t a big deal.

Rita T. booked a group workshop for 40 people
Outstanding venue for our church summit. The view was amazing and the spacious room offered many opportunities for break out sessions. I would definitely book it again.
Kirk H. booked a birthday party for 75 people
Absolutely gorgeous space and great building. The view is stupendous. The rooms are spacious. We had about 100 people for a birthday party and it was quite comfy. We bought in some extra rectangular tables and card tables to accommodate about 20 more seats. Plus we brought in 5 standup round cocktail tables. Perfect decision. The bar area was more than adequate for setting up 8- 10 catering trays (I can’t recall exactly) with burners and people just queued up to be served. Very classy. The pool table and shuffleboard stayed in constant use. The televisions were all over the place. Awesome. Getting to the deal was easy and pleasant. The office staff was informative but not pushy or overselling. Hey were extremely nice and friendly and did not lie about anything. Day of the event was easy as pie. The weekend concierge staffed the lobby desk and was absolutely a gem. Fríendly and helpful. There is a huge loading dock with a freight elevator they lock off to facilitate setup and removal. Residents were all nice. Not a lot of traffic for a Saturday night. Just a nice building and super clean. Many of my guests asked me how we ended up using the space and swore they’d look at it for themselves. I was pleased. During our speech session the joke started that they’d see me again next year for my birthday — same place and same time. My guests loved it and I loved it too.
