Kizomba/Zouk Party

The Rose is a neon-pink hotel bar in Chelsea that flips into social-dance nights—mostly salsa and bachata—inside the Chelsean New York Hotel at 160 W 25th. The venue is primarily a restaurant/bar with outdoor seating; staff clear a compact area for dancing and reviews note instructors run drop-in classes (bachata is mentioned most). Regular dance nights show up Sun, Tue and midweek (Wed) and cover is typically $15 online, $20 at the door.

Weeknight opening is 17:00 with weekday close at midnight and later weekend hours, so the floor usually livens after the class and peaks around 21:30–23:30. Music leans salsa/bachata with occasional kizomba and zouk on the calendar. Expect a young, mixed crowd of diners and dancers; the dance area is small and fills quickly, so arrive early or RSVP for busy nights.
