The atmosphere here is great! We enjoyed some fancy cocktails & mixed drinks on a Thursday night. Our waiter was very friendly & attentive to us. We didn't leave until almost 2am on a Thursday. Nice to have some night life within the hotel mid week. We would return for drinks again during our next visit. Highly recommend!

Belle découverte, les serveurs/serveuses étaient vraiment gentils & avenants. Par contre les prix sont malades, 41$ pour 1 verre de vin 😱!!!! Wahou.... Mais belle expérience quand même!!

The cocktails are the highlight at 1608 & the small bites are also delightful! The dip board has a lovely beet hummus & purple potatoes chips for the vegans present. The focaccia can be made without cheese as well 😋

Le 1608 est une expérience à partager avec des amis de qualité. Pierre-Olivier, serveur & mixologue a su préparer des breuvages uniques & classiques avec classe. N'hésitez pas à demander ce spécialiste pour un expérience hors pair.
