“We were working... with Frank Sinatra. He was in the main room, and we were in the lounge. It was a real thrill to meet and actually become friends with people like Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin. They were all working the Sands at that time... and Bill and I became... well, not close friends, but at least acquaintances where they knew us by name, and most of them just called us the righteous boys.”
Bobby Hatfield
“The Polo Lounge is like a fine old mink coat: opulent, dignified and warm.”
Bryan Miller
“I went back to my lounge chair. Alone.”
William Goldman
“I saw nothing unusual in the teacher's lounge”
Nancy Cartwright
“'Voodoo Lounge' is the Stones' most appealing album in years.”
Robert Hilburn
“It's a unique bar. The room was originally a 1910 train station passenger lounge, and it's got a 35-foot-high dome, all done in the original architecture. The bar will seat 22 and is an 8-by-16-foot rectangle that sits directly under the dome.”
