Forlorn Hope

The Forlorn Hope is the name of a notorious bar in Night City, founded on the former Hotel Sierra. In 2020 it was located south of Charter Hill. By 2045, the area had become part of the Combat Zone of Little China.

History
Forlorn Hope was founded by John Freeman and William Dolarhyde between 2011 and 2015, occupying an old Victorian-style building known formerly as Hotel Sierra. Although Solos comprised most of its clientele, the bar catered to other freelances, including Netrunners and Fixers. Its location was only known to its small group of very close-knit patrons, and it didn't advertise.

By 2045, the Forlorn Hope's neighborhood was now firmly in Little China and the Combat Zones. Rogue Amendiares would sometimes meet up-and-coming edgerunners who were not qualified to enter the Afterlife at the Hope. The owners did not mind.
