Blue - Unfortunately, with our current small venue, we don't really have a lounge area just yet. However! It's not uncommon for Guests to come in pairs (or even three people), and be waited on by a Host who's comfortable with conversing with a group as such. ^^
We do have 2-3 rooms that seat 4 or more people, just for this sort of purpose. If your group just wants to go into one of these seating rooms, get their order taken by the Host, and then ask for some privacy for the remainder of their stay, I don't see why that couldn't ICly play out. Conversely, if they decide to engage in the usual activities of having a Host at the Club, they could also ask said Host to entertain them with a story, or a song, or whatever that particular Host happens to specialize in.
After being seated in a room, we ask that people RP in /party, since it's pretty unrealistic for people upstairs to hear people downstairs and vice-versa. XD (It also has the lovely effect of keeping the chat scroll to a comfortable level.)
TL;DR - I don't see why a visit to the Host Club this weekend couldn't suit the IC purpose you're suggesting! Even if we run out of Hosts, your group could likely negotiate a room to utilize for a private party of sorts, as we usually have spare private rooms available. But what I might recommend is, if there is one available, spend some time with a Host or Hostess to get the Host Club experience, and then ask for privacy for the rest of your stay. (I'm super hoping that makes sense! I do encourage you guys to come out!
