And to think this used to be the Siemens lounge and place where you could rent it out for wedding receptions.

Had the pleasure of spending some time up there back in 2007.Norway had a nice one upstairs with items on display, conference room, banquet space, and a small theater area that use to show a different film on Norway than what was downstairs. While its still there I think its been stripped of anything Norwegian, of course.
Lovely space, with some neat Norwegian art pieces and cultural displays.
The vintage 70s WDW plastic tumblers they were still using to serve beverages in were also a plus for this old school Park nerd.
The most entertaining part however was using the restroom.
As you were in there doing your thing….you could easily hear the ‘Spirit of Norway’ film playing loudly in the theatre directly below you!
That was a bit surreal….

What Delta Skyclub have you been to? Because the one I was at last week was not even close to this.

What is it that costs this

Well that is a big part of my comment - drinks need to actually be well crafted to be worth it
Angular chairs don't sound too comfortable, so think those will work just fine but willing to wait until I see it in person to judge
And this view seems to show a consistency with the chairs

That is only if you get the fireworks viewing special reserved package. Otherwise free to access

On the misses, meets or exceeds expectations scale, I would give it a meets expectations. Entry area looks pretty cool and lounge is nice enough. Obviously. they would have had to work very hard to mess up those nice views. No super interesting surprises or ideas to make it top tier.
Curious about the music and whether I'll feel like staying in there and drinking with Epcot all around me - but I cant complain about a new option for adults. To use the obvious pun, Disney did not drop the geodesic sphere. When is Epcot Center history trivia night??

Looks quite nice to me. I would have gone with less gold, but that's more a question of personal taste.
The one thing from the images and videos that I have seen that I would have changed is the artwork in the small lounge area. It fits the style of the bar, but looks too AI-generated. Perhaps Herb Ryman concept art wouldn't have fit the aesthetic, but it would have been nice if they could have done something with that. I don't know, perhaps it is hard to do digital art these days that doesn't look like AI.
Between this and the DVC preview centre in Canada, it's surprising so much of their hotel design has been so lacklustre in recent years.

Darling, you can’t go in there, order a free ice water, and then leave.

Not sure why you are calling me darling, but you do you
And I am sure people will do that
But even if you order a drink that ain't the $179/person you stated to "access" it
You’re going to run up a hefty bar tab with cocktails that cost around $30 a piece. It is definitely not “free” to access.
Don’t normalize stupid.

Before it was the Siemens lounge, let’s not forget it was the AT&T lounge……..

Then don’t post stupid lies. Even a cheap dive bar expects you to buy something.

Lol. The newer ones in LAX, LGA, ATL
Contemporary design with geometric motifs, Monochromatic color palettes, Generic photographic art.
Contemporary decor is contemporary decor.
Don't know why people are surprised to see contemporary decor in places of WDW which use contemporary decor.
Was anyone expecting a four year old girl's Disney Princess decor?
No props for not using a Disney movie IP?
I'll probably never step foot in it. Too expensive. And I don't drink. The only two non-alcoholic drinks look like they have ingredients that are toxic.
Maybe I'll check out that new restaurant in the Japan pavilion. Surely, that can't be too expensive...

That isn't "access", that is the cost of what you are obtaining ala carte which could be lower or higher.
And prices seem pretty standard to me for a high end lounge/bar - just actual drinks need to deliver to that level

I wouldn’t mind seeing this look extended into Project Tomorrow when or if they get that refurb back on the books.
