Duvet is the brainchild of owner Sabina Belkin, a passionate young restaurateur and nightlife impresario. Designed by Andres Escobar (Cartier Boutique and Guess? store in Toronto) and Edward Belkin, Duvet features 30 customized "dining beds," soft satin banquettes, frosted glass bars and seven intimate "bedrooms" that are available for the sexiest, most-talked about private parties. Upon entering Duvet, patrons will at once find themselves amazed at the sheer size (over 20,000 square feet) and elegance of the space. Behind the Ice Bar is a striking 8x15-foot aquarium that houses over 100 exotic jellyfish. The main dining room houses 30 very large custom beds. Silky curtains frame the beds and discreetly placed drawers are available to stash shoes and purses. Ladies should be sure not to miss the Friday & Saturday early shows from 9PM-11PM, featuring... HUNKMANIA NYC MALE STRIPPERS.

Editorial by Citysearch

The Scene
There's not a duvet to be found, but night owls can land on one of the 23 beds upstairs or swoop into any of the seven downstairs VIP bedrooms. White gauzy curtains surround the beds and soften the otherwise harsh iceberg-inspired space. The bar, which resembles a jagged block of frozen H2O and glows varying florescent shades, bustles with harried bartenders cranking out specialty cocktails.

The Draw
The beds take center stage. Groups of friends, guys out to impress the ladies and the merely curious lounge on the low-slung mattresses, covered in pillows. You'll pay a price for the rest--bottle service is required for a reservation. Don't miss the mesmerizing jellyfish tank, near the bathrooms.

Key Points

  • NYC Club Hot Spot
  • Private Event Hosting
  • Gift Certificates Available

The Inside Scoop

  1. Know Before You Go - Bottle service is the only way to secure a bed--meaning if you want a drink from the bar (even a $20 specialty cocktail), you'll have to get up and get it yourself.

This is by far the best and sexiest place in New York! It is so beautiful......I have never seen a place that is so breathtaking. The people are HOT! And the music is some of the best in NYC. Food is great and the atmosphere just makes you want to dance on the beds. This is the place to be and be seen.

Pros: lots of beautiful people, great vibe, great music

Ratings_icons Had a Great Time Due to Friends

qtgurljny

Duvuet is a bit past it's hayday with a pretty standard New York crowd. Great music but, nothing exciting fills the air. The space is gorgeous with beautiful bathrooms. However, I ended up having a GREAT time due to the big group of friends I ended up going with. The posh "beds" service may seem alluring but you'll soon come to see that "bed" service isn't quite worth it. Overall, a fun time.

I had the best time this past weekend at Duvet so I wanted to share my experience. Started off with some great food and the service was awesome. They were right on point with the service as if it were a 4 star restaurant. The atmosphere is absolutely beautiful. This place has a fish tank and beds...need I say more. After dinner the club starts going and wow! Being a New Yorker I have been out to almost every hot place in the city..Duvet is a Def. top 5 right now in Manhattan period!

Pros: sure to be a fun time, beautiful people, amazing music

I left this horrible place after being ignored and informed that we will have to share a bed with another couple. Hello? what was the reservation for?? If I had read through all the reviews written here I wouldn't have gone to that place. It was empty, and we would have to share a bed????? There are plenty restaurants can offer better service and pleasant atmosphere than this snobbish hole. There were no staff to greet customers, and the staff at reservation desk were arrogant and rudest I have seen.

Pros: Beds

I had one of my best experiences at Duvet. Starting from dinner to the lounge and nightclub, it only got better and better. Started with some dinner with some friends and not only was the food amazing but the service was top class. They paid attention to our every need. As the night got later and later it became even more exciting. I haven't seen so many beautiful people in one room in a long time. They were all dressed to impressed. People were dancing on the beds and since we started with dinner we decided to stay and do bottle service on the beds. That was a great idea and I just loved dancing on the beds with my friends. To top the night off, the music was absolutely amazing. Can't wait to go back.

Pros: very sexy atmosphere, cool bathrooms, great music

Cons: crowded

This has to be the hottest place in the city. We came in for dinner and the food was absolutely amazing. It was so good and tasty. We didn't want to stop eating. Then it was time for the nightclub. The music was off the hook. Everyone was having a bnlast and dancing. We had the best time ever. The place is so beautiful. There is an amazing lighting system in there and a rediculous sound system. The place is so hot and sexy. This is definitely the sexiest and hottest palce in NY!! If you want to go and have a great time, then this is the place for you. Don't listen to all these rejects saying how bad it is. They are only saying that because they couldn't get in. Dvuet is a must see!!!!

Ratings_icons You Think Marquee Has A Bad Door? Try This.

creativelolita

My friend planned his party. Purchased eight bottles and brought in 40 young, gorgeous patrons to their establishment.

He worked it out with the manager in advance. Once there, the doorman was rude, told him to "forget" what the manager said and refused to let 1/2 of his party in unless he bought a total of 12 bottles! They literally extorted my friend on his b-day! Once in there, the place was 75% empty, full of bridge and tunnel barely-legals and the music was terrible! This shocked me because just a year ago the place was first-class.
Don't bother blowing your money or wasting your time with this place, go somewhere where a 6,000 tab isn't a requirement to celebrate your birthday with friends.

I can't comment except say that I've never been treated so rudely at the door before, It wasn't just me, but other people waiting on line were also angry. The only people that were let in were hot young females and ONLY hot young females, and maybe if youre a friend of the bouncer. Someone (who was with his gf) even approached the bouncer and threatened to fight him and had to be separated. We left the line shortly after that commotion.

k77

We arrived at midnight. The line outside the club was endless and a whole bunch of very important security guys was busy chasing everyone from corner to corner (in a very rude manner, that is). We were 3 girls and hence got in relatively easily. Admission was $20, the club itself was fairly empty. The few people that were actually inside were B&T from head to toe. Average age was about 20, average IQ was minus 5. The music was horrendous. In an effort to make things a little more fun, I ordered lemon drops (shots). They were small and $10 each..... Don't go, this is a waste of time and money.

Ratings_icons Why all the hype?

vincentchase

Duvet has a lot to learn. I go out to clubs all the time and I have never encountered a ruder group. It's plain hostile at the door. Once inside you realize why. The staff is not capable of handling a busy Saturday night in NYC. The walk to the bar is like a walk to Siberia. Who designed this place? I went on a Saturday, and although the DJ was great, nothing else was even decent. Rude bouncers and door staff, steps EVERYWHERE, and terrible lay out make this place a sure loser. I actually heard they spent a fortune to build it. What a waste of money. Head to somewhere else, Duvet is terrible.

Pros: Friendly bartender, DJ

Cons: Terrible Layout, rude door staff, overpriced drinks

del19761111

Had reservations for 8:30pm, didn't get seated till 9:20pm. Trying to get a waiter was next to impossible. Finally ordered around 10:00pm. We ordered the 4 course dinner with wine pairings for $125 a person. You're supposed to get a glass of wine with each course but with no waiter, guess what? The wine didn't match the dish. The table next to us came even earlier (8pm) and they were only on their second course. Only when they threatened to leave without paying, did the manager do something. Apparently they weren't the only ones dissatisfied, quite a few tables walked out. Also to note, that on the menu it said that at $125, tax and tip were included yet on the bill they still added tax. It's really sad that such a nice place would have such lousy service. Needless to say that this was the worst valentine's day ever.

Pros: Atmosphere

Try to get in to this spot, if you can. They definately do a great job keeping out all the losers. I only saw amazing well dressed people. The girls were amazing and the guys were all dressed to impress. So many good looking people and I saw Linsay Lohan and her crew drinking ang having a blast on one of their vip beds. Ignore the negative reviews, its probably from losers that can't get in. I've been here numberous times and my friends and i always have an amazing time. If you can't get into the nightclub try coming in for dinner, that always helps the headache at the door.

newyorkspark

At first glance the place seemed great: a huge jellyfish tank, neat euro looking atmosphere and the drapery with the beds presented a different spin, but overall the drinks were too pricy and the selection was extremely limited to begin who doesnt serve a mojito? Plus the hour long wait to retrieve my coat was a bit much. If you are looking for the classy place their website reveals be prepared to be disappointed, this is no longer an A list club.

markwoods20

If you have spent anytime in New York.. you will be dissapointed by duvet. If you are just visiting, dont allow your few days in this fine city to be wasted in what is perhaps the most undesirable low-class night club in manhattan. To say the service is sub-par implies that that duvet is aspiring to a standard. Do not be decieved. My party was ruffed up by the ostentatious, door-men.. our bill was inflated and we were charged for liquour that never arrived. I have never been so inspired to author a review of a night club. But the abusive staff and insipid management should get what they deserve.

yazanuda

The service was horrible. I booked a bed for my birthday party, was told that people I have invited will get in for free, as they should be on the guest list. Most of us did get in for free, but they made couple of my guests pay. When I tried to talk to someone, noone from the stuff was helpful. I had to freeze outside for twenty minutes only to get this response: "oops, it gets a little hectic sometimes." Never got the money back. Securities, persons in charge of guests list are the rudest I've ever seen in any club of NY. Waiter service wasn't any good either, waitress almost never came up, it took a while to bring whatever asked for, bottled vodka was warm, cleaniness of the bed was not maintained by the stuff. My overall experience is just plain horrible!

I have heard all the hype and wanted to experience it for myself. We had an amazing time. We had a bed for two for dinner and the food is exceptional!! The service was superb and I would highly recommend this place. After about 11pm it started to chnage into a nightclub. We stayed after and had a blast.

nycclubgoer

I usally do not write reviews on resturants and night clubs unless I am dissappointed, but in the case of DUVET, I have changed my mind. Duvet is a breath of fresh air in a city of boring nightclubs and un-inspiring resturants. Every detail of the place, from the layout to even the smallest pillow placement seems to awaken the scences while putting the stress's of everyday life to sleep. Whether your their for the food (picture the feeling of dinner while you sleep) or their for the nightlife atomosphere, Duvet will not only meet your expectations but exceed them. Try it, you'll be a convert like me!!

myb38

My friend bought 2 beds for her birthday party and it was an absolute mess. They kept us outside for half an hour, even though we had a reservation. Once we got inside we had to stand around for another 30 minutes to wait for the staff to figure out where our beds were, and another 15 minutes before we finally got our bottle service. I have been to several 'chi-chi' places in this city and it has never been so disorganized or horrible, especially not when you have reservations for bottle service. It should also be noted that we were a group of maybe 2/3 women, 1/3 men...all attractive/well dressed...not rowdy.
Everything else was just as mediocre - the music, staff (rude)...even coat check was a disorganized mess. Duvet management really needs to get their act together - it will close soon if they don't.

Ratings_icons Beds A Must, Expensive

b00pi3flak3s

The idea of having beds all around a club decked out with lavish decor, Roman-like ambiance is a sight to see, which unfortunately you must have to fully experience what the club has to offer. The music is great, the service is good, but it all comes at a price. The go-go dancers they have with the very attractive wait staff, make the evening a pleasurable if not sensual one, especially when laying in a bed as the clubgoers dance all around you. Its good fun, but a bed is a must. Get hammered before you come here, because the drinks are *unbelievably* spendy. The attitude from the bouncers / door hosts are relatively the same as you'll find in the most lavish of clubs -- arrogant, brash, and unbelievably rude. The people are most definitely beautiful here, however, you have to be prepared to come in here either with a) a lot of money you're willling to spend b) bottle service if you arrive after midnight c) tolerate the pushy service.

Pros: Beds, Decor, Crowd

Cons: Expensive, VIP, Crowded

Ratings_icons Beds + Clubs = Good Time

babygrrl337

Whoever thought it would be good to put beds in a club was setting itself up for trouble (the fun kind)! This is the perfect place for an evening of debauchery! The only true way to loosen up and have a blast, however, is to buy your own bed, and that can get costly. Otherwise, there is nowhere for you to go as there is no real dancefloor. Best bet is to go with a large group of friends and get a bed together.

angela12

When you make reservations for a table and buy dinner for your girfriends, you don't expect the "door people" to have to approve your guest list. A friend came to join our table a bit later, and even though we were spending up a storm, had dinner and were still drinking at our own table, the staff would not let a friend in to join our party- the managers would do nothing to help, simply insisting that the only people who would be given access are the people who would be buying bottles- hello- that's what we were already doing-- do yourself a favor... there are plenty of places to spend your money in NY. Not only are these people rude but clueless as well, The food isn't anything you can not afford to miss and the attitude will make you sober again, so it's just not worth the $$.

Waited an hour an a half for the food to come. When we asked the waitress what was going on, she said "it's just busier on Saturday nights." Shouldn't they plan for busy nights? Not to mention, we ordered Sushi which doesn't need to be cooked. Yes, the atmosphere is very cool-- they showed Cirque du Soleil videos all night. Lots of pretty people to look at, but along with that came a very pretentious vibe. If that's what you are into-- go for it.

Pros: great music, good decor

Cons: pricey food, very small portions

My husband and I had dinner last night at Duvet with some friends. This place was my best experience in NYC this year. The service was fast and on point and very friendly. Anything and everything i needed was produced in lightning speed. The food and drinks were nothing short of absolutely amazing. I must have had 10 white satin mojito's. Definitely try the dungeness crab, the skirt steak salad and the hake fish. Don't believe the negative reviews; this place is well worth it!!!!

Pros: ambience, cocktail list, food

Cons: acquiring reservation

This place is very nice. But it seems to lose the old club atmostphere centro fly had. Now it has converted into an ultra chic "miami" style nightclub with load of back lighting. The place is very nice. You have to check it out. Expect to pop some bottles.

Pros: big club, trendy, beautiful people

Cons: pricey, long lines
