In the heart of the Meatpacking District, The Standard High Line is the neighborhood’s party hotspot. Several bar and restaurant concepts can be found here but it’s The Top of the Standard that really shines. Located on the, well, top floor of the hotel (18th to be exact), you are met with panoramic views over all of New York City and the Hudson River from the high floor-to-ceiling windows that surround the bar. Come for Sunset Service before the day turns to night and the bar transforms into an all-out party. You can expect live jazz music, yummy small bites and a fashionable crowd. There is also afternoon tea and desserts, plus an all-day dining menu if a large party isn’t for you. The sophisticated supper lounge’s bar features an exquisite centerpiece that extends from the floor and expands into the ceiling, doubling as both a bar display and art. The room glitters in gold — including the bar, tables and ceiling.The swanky penthouse lounge has a wraparound bar, as well as plush booth seating on several tears overlooking the windows. If you want to dance, head to Le Bain at The Standard High Line for a wilder night.
