As a big renovation project progresses at the historic Clermont Hotel, its famous basement dive bar/strip club is going on hiatus. The Clermont Lounge will close for roughly six weeks, killing the lights from January 1 to "February 15thish."
The Clermont Lounge will TEMPORARILY be closed due to hotel construction starting on January 1st. We will reopen on February 15thish.

There has been some concern the opening of a sparkling boutique hotel would spell doom for the seedy vice den, a favorite of soon-to-be-hungover locals and visiting celebrities alike. But, developers say the Clermont Lounge will remain open. With a long vacation in the near future, a New Year’s Eve visit may be appropriate. Stop by, grab a PBR, and say hello to Peaches.
