N Y Event Space in Union Square
Haruko and the folks at Capsule Studio NYC. From beginning to end of the process of organizing our event (140 people, 5 hr Open Bar), the team was professional, responsive, and always had our best interests in mind. The event went off without a hitch, and our guests had...

No longer open
The space worked very well for our festival launch party, and guests complimented us on the venue. There was a great bar set up and tables that were ideal for gift bags. We also used the projection system and that worked well. Gregory was flexible about furniture arrangement and helpful...

The Perfect Event Space - Furnished Modern Loft
all my questions quickly. Rearranged the furniture as I requested and it's very convenient that they have staff available and can handle the bar for you! Thanks guys, I'm very happy. Cheers...

Private Speakeasy Piano Bar
We had a great time at the bar. We were having a birthday party and having an open bar for 3 hours. I wish there was a way to have some people do the open bar and some people not, maybe handing out bracelets to those who don't want...

Speakeasy Piano Bar
The space was great. I was filming and they didn't mention that the connected upstairs bar would be open so we had some people walking through at times as well as noise from upstairs. Those things on a film shoot can be a problem but the actual space was...

Flatiron District Unique Loft
and it was absolutely perfect - everyone loved it! I had about 60 people there and we fit comfortably with plenty of room for a bar setup. The space is definitely bigger than the pictures show - there was plenty of room for people to move around, mingle and dance. Ron was...

All White Fully Equipped NYC Event Space for Infinite Possibilities
Really a top rate pro. David was an excellent host. Far more accommodating than I could have hoped. We rented some tables and a bar setup and we found that there was ample space to get in and move around. I know at this point it probably sounds like...

All White Fully Equipped NYC Event Space for Infinite Possibilities
who met David had only wonderful things to say about him. I could not have asked for a better experience. David definitely set the bar high for Peerspace hosting. I don't think I would go anywhere else if I ever needed to put together a similar event...
Daniel C.
British Pub
for an 8-hour film shoot and it was perfect. It had great lighting and multiple office spaces to use. Not to mention, the bar is perfect for a bar scene in a film! Zarina was a great host! She was readily available to take my calls and answer my...
Mark G.
British Pub
One of our film students booked the British Pub and really enjoyed working in the space. She felt that it was not only a realistic setting to shoot in, but that it was also a spacious place to spend the day working in as well. Zarina, the host, was very...

Penthouse Lounge & Rooftop Bar - Private Venue
Sir Henri's Penthouse Lounge and Rooftop Bar was exactly what we needed for our company holiday party. It had the perfect combination of elegance and intimate feel for my 80 person party. Great spot to have a dance floor as well! Anita was such a breeze to work with...
Lindsey M.
Convertible Space in the Heart of Chelsea
something that I didn't have to stress over. Kristal suggested that we work with her events company, Mustard Lane, to provide a full bar and bartenders. The bartenders were phenomenal. The party was 70's themed and they were dressed in-costume which was so much fun! Kristal and...
Mimi P.
Greenwich Village Pub with Event Area
were all on top of everything and very helpful. They treated my guests as each one was a VIP. I would definitely recommend this pub to anyone and will book it again for any event that I may have in the near future...
Marc W.
Intimate, urban, unique art gallery with industrial-chic style
and answered all my questions promptly. The chairs and tables on-site were very helpful, and I augmented it with a couple circular standing pub tables of my own to accommodate my ~24 guests. The kitchenette and fridge were perfect for our beverages. Highly highly recommend based on the exceptional...
John D.
The Empire Room
had to do was show up. The only possible negative thing I would say is that there was noise from other sections of the pub that made it difficult to hear and to have a conversation. However, that is probably a standard pub experience. In general I am highly satisfied...

Large Event Space, Studio, & Salon - 3k sq. ft.
exactly as pictured and offered great amenities such as printing on site, backdrop set up + multiple seamless colors, and a fully functional hair washing/back bar area. Our team + clients were very impressed by the space...

Eclectic-Style Loft in Union Square
entire process and was super accommodating! Great communication, the space was perfect, had bathrooms, a kitchen, ample space for people to dance, and a bar area. Would highly recommend this space for parties/special occasions...

Sunsetpark Clock Tower Loft
his team. I don’t think there really is anything better. It’s a walking distance to the Costco. Great bagel options at bagel pub. Some amazing deli sandwiches at new sunset. Sunset City is slept on for sure, and once everyone walked into the space, they knew that this...
