Drink in the past: America's most historic hotel bars Map

For history (and cocktail) lovers, visiting these historic watering holes is a must when traveling to some of the country's major cities. Sample Bloody Mary's at the legendary King Cole Bar -- the first place to serve them in the U.S.; hide away at the Bar Marmont, a long-time celebrity haven; or drink away your sorrows at Alibi, located in the "drunk tank" of a former jail.
