As a place that has passed its peak years, Marquee now just hosts a lot of events here. The venue is pretty expansive, and the DJs that spin here are actually not bad. If you want to be in the middle of the action, utilize your connections to grab a table in the middle of the main floor. Otherwise, venture upstairs for a cozier and more private party area. If you're ordering drinks from the bartender, expect the mid to high double digit nightclub drink prices. Personally, I never really stopped by unless I had a connection here.
Pretty neat club if you want to dance. I've been here many times on Tuesdays, Thursdays and the weekends, and it's pretty similar - weekends are way more packed but even on a weeknight you won't feel alone
. If you have guys in your group and are not doing bottle service, get here before midnight. Lines start to form around 11-11:30 on weekends and the later you get there, the longer you wait outside.
Face control is not a myth. If you are getting a table, try to get one downstairs around the dance floor. Downstairs music is more pop/dance, upstairs is hip-hop/rap. Overall, good time if you want to dance.

Where should I start?.............. I decided to go there to celebrate my birthday. I called 2 days prior and made a guestlist for 15 people, the girl who answered the phone was really nice and she told me just to be there before midnight.
Well I got there around 11 with 7 people and there was NO ONE online and the guy at the door told me I had to wait to get in.. then he strolls over and asks me if I want to buy a bottle, and I said no.. not everyone is here yet so if we decide that it will be inside. 20 minutes later I got in.

Then they tried charging me $20 at the door even though the girl on the phone told me a guestlist will get me in for $10. After finally getting in... the other half of my party arrived and they would not let them inside.
I attempted to go outside to try and tell the jerk at the door that it was my birthday but he told me my guestlist was MAXED OUT. Maxed out? It was 11:30... there was barely anyone inside and my guestlist was for 15 people.

WELLL.... the JERK at the door... told my boyfriend and the rest of the people that if he slipped the bouncers $200 they would let them in.. plus the cover charge... after fighting with the JERK at the door - I told my boyfriend to leave because it wasn't worth the money... I go back inside to find my friends laughing because Marquee - this "HIGH END - UPSCALE LOUNGE" was playing Miley Cyrus music....
Just to my surprise shortly after they were playing Justin Beiber or whatever his name is.... So if you are looking to deal with bouncers who think they are god and "great" kiddie music - this place is for you!
I wound up leaving and going to M2 I told them it was my birthday and what a horrible experience I had at Marquee and they let me right in... and we all had A BLAST!!!

amazing live drummer every friday to quote: Is Marquee worth all the drama at the door to get in?
The chi-chi West Chelsea hotspot from the folks behind the promotion of the formerly trendy Suite 16 is the kind of place where, if the too-cool-for-school doorman deems you unworthy of entrance (straight men without women, beware), a couple of beefy security guards will forcibly evict you from the velvet rope line.

Even if you pass muster, you’re going to have to wait on that damn line anyway; only the beautiful and the well-connected get a free pass here. Inside, the two-story space is thoughtfully designed and laid out, centered on a modest dance floor ringed by banquettes and punctuated by a dramatic chandelier that changes color with the disco lights.
It’s all very slick (one of the two other rooms has sexy red rippled walls), with bottle service and plainclothes models boogying to hip techno remixes, but it’s also strangely generic.
