The Arctic Club Hotel
An eclectic group of adventurers, artists, and industrialists, inspired by the lure of the Yukon and North Pacific., formed the Arctic Club. Fueled by their fortunes made in the Gold Rush, the Arctic Club was a meeting place to create new connections between the East and West and to pursue the love of exploration.

Upon entry hang the vintage photographs of original members of the men’s club in bowler hats and starched collars. The lobby’s Polar Bar makes you want to be a better drinker. The bar could function as the officers’ deck of a fictional cruise ship or the executive lounge of the Chrysler Building back in the day. This bar was built for random acts of glamour and decadence.
