Our beautiful Clubhouse is in every way a home.

Built in 1900 for Maria Vanderbilt Shepard and William Jay Schieffelin, our house has been lovingly restored. Guests and members alike treasure a setting that is timelessly beautiful but not ostentatious, perfectly elegant, yet comfortable. Our staff is amiable and attentive, but never intrusive. The Lotos Club's beautifully appointed rooms accommodate a wide range of corporate and social events: an intimate dinner party for eight, a festive wedding celebration for one hundred guests or cocktails for two hundred and fifty. Our renowned cuisine features seasonal menus tailored to your tastes and event. Our staff is here to help assist with every detail - menus, flowers and music - so that you can relax and enjoy your special event.

Please see below for information on the individual rooms, as well as a form to request additional information on hosting a private event.
