Probably the nicest roof top bar in Manhattan. We visited on a Busy Friday evening but we were quickly found an outside table with heaters. Service was fantastic, friendly and efficient. The cocktails are as to be expected expensive but very good, around £28 per cocktail but probably worth it for the experience. As the night wore on we asked for a table inside and were given a great table with views of the Manhattan streets sprawling out below.
I won't mention how much our bill was after 4 hours or so but no complaints from any of our party.
A must visit, even for one.

I was a bit surprised by this bar. If you know the Peninsula, you know it is an over the top lavish hotel. It is ornate inside and out. But not this rooftop. It is somewhat small and understated and has clean lines and simple furniture and lots of umbrellas and smalls stings of lights and decor here and there. It is a good spot to feel like you are in the midst of NYC - not quite above it and not quite covered by it, but just right - looking up at some buildings and down at others. It is the right spot to focus on enjoying your drink and your company and reflecting on all you have achieved and what you may still aspire to.

Recently visited Salon de Ning, the enchanting rooftop gem atop the Peninsula Hotel in New York. Although we were accepted as walk-ins, we were initially seated indoors while awaiting an outdoor table. Unfortunately, the transition took longer than expected.
The view offers a panoramic slice of the city skyline that is nothing short of amazing. However, the plates left us wanting more; portions could be a tad heartier.
Service was satisfactory, with attentive staff consistently checking if all was well. Perfect for a leisurely afternoon with a stunning view of the 5th Ave.

Fantastic drinks and view! The service is extremely fair. If you’re in line for a great indoor table the manager is completely fair about seating. Well run establishment and a memorable experience!

We try and stop by this place everytime when were visiting NY.
Stayed at the hotel many times, but wirth a visit even when youre not staying at the hotel.
Its expensive for sure!!! :)
But the level of service and quality of food/drinks is also at a top top level. So you get what you pay for.

Paah. We hated it.
We would have been happy to pay for the overpriced drinks if there had been a great view, wonderful service or nice décor. Sadly, there were none of these.
The rooftop had no view to speak of. The furniture was tacky and uncomfortable. And the server, oh, the server, seemed bothered to have to serve us.
It was one of the adventures that we had looked most forward to in NYC, but were most disappointed in. (And that includes every New York establishment visited over 30 years.)

This continues to be one of my favorite rooftops in NY. I have been a “regular” for many years and, I am always happy to go back. Love it!!

This is the rooftop bar at the Peninsula Hotel. There is a smallish interior area as well as outdoor seating. The interior area doesn’t have generous standing area so can get crowded. Great bartenders. There is an igaloo (plastic geodesic dome )which is heated and can be reserved for bottle service which presently has a $500 minimum. We skipped the igaloo and enjoyed the chat with the bartender!!

Before dinner though we wanted to check out another rooftop bar that we had heard good things about called Salon de ning at the Peninsula hotel in midtown. This bar is not easy to find as there are different sets of elevators (I remember this at the Peninsula in Chicago). Once you find the right elevator it will take you to the top where the rooftop bar and restaurant are located.
Salon de Ning is a stylish rooftop bar featuring two outdoor terraces and an intimate interior bar. This bar features dramatic skyline views over Fifth Avenue. Because it is not a large bar, I would recommend getting there earlier so you can get a seat. We noticed that once we grabbed our seats at the bar people began flooding in and the seats became scarce.
We really enjoyed this bar. The bartenders made great drinks and were extremely attentive. I would highly recommend this as a stop!

Atop the fine Peninsula Hotel. Ask for Allen. Great drinks. Not the best view, but still very nice. A good way to enjoy the Big Apple.

Rooftop has a beautiful view of Central Park and a very limited menu. No bar service on outside railing and will need to order at bar. Had two adult beverages & cheeseboard while waiting for a table on the patio receipt attached

Midtown
This is the iconic New York that so many visitors imagine before they visit—spectacular skyscrapers like the Chrysler Building and Empire State Building, iconic public buildings like Grand Central Terminal and the New York Public Library, and the non-stop hustle and bustle of the city streets. Fifth Avenue is a shopper's heaven where you can find every kind of store imaginable, with fashion brands ranging from the affordable to the ultra-fancy. Visit the Rockefeller Center to experience towering Art Deco grandeur, and foodies will love the busy restaurants that stay open late in Koreatown. After dark, Midtown calms down a bit, but at any time of day or night it still feels 100% New York.
