- The Press Lounge has some of the exceptional views Manhattan has to offer. Not loud, not rowdy and not over crowded. One of the best lounges in NYC to spend a summer night with a lovely drink in hand
- Condé Nast TravelerJuly 27, 2016Here, you'll find no DJs, and no sloppy folk: Instead, there are twinkling lights, fire pits, artisanal cocktails, and unobstructed panoramas to help you revel in big city beauty. Read more
- One of my favorite rooftop bars in NYC. The drinks are pricey, but the view of the city and NJ is really unbelievable. I like coming here in the middle of the week or on Sundays – it's less crowded.
- Margarita ButteAugust 8, 2016Amazing views over Manhattan! Prices are not the lowest but the place is totally worth a visit, especially during sunset 😊
- Rewan PartiJuly 17, 2016Beautiful views and free entry. Weekend line starts forming around 10pm. Head here around 9pm and get yourself chairs facing the city next to the pool. Waitresses come around to take drink orders.
- Erik CintronSeptember 1, 2017Sexy!!! Place a where the music is low the drink prices are high. but so many rooftops in the city but usually blocked by a bigger building this had a gorgeous view. Gorgeous people, strong drinks
- oxana yaroslavskayaAugust 18, 2016. The rooftop area is so huge and even if it is crowded you are able to find a place to relax with your friends. The view from the lounge is amazing!!!

- Sean RobertsonJanuary 12, 2015Had our company holiday party here. Amazing views and high quality drinks and hors d'oeuvres. Can't comment on the music though because one of my coworkers DJ'ed for the night instead of their usual.
- Ale TowerJuly 10, 2016Great rooftop around the midtown area. I actually thought the view at night from there was better than from the Top of the Rock, as you have a great skyline posing for you!
- Relaxing rooftop lounge with great views of Midtown; Very polite staff and diverse crowd; line can get quite long around midnight on summer nights, so plan accordingly
- Jasmine 💫July 1, 2021Come for the view. The (pre-poured) cocktails are just a bonus. If you must, order only Classic Beauty (rum with passion fruit) or anything out of a bottle.
- Uri ErelOctober 23, 2019perfect panoramic view to the sunset and Hudson and midtown buildings. great vibe! very good mojito
- Sexy LFJune 22, 2014ALWAYS call before showing up to make sure it's not closed for a private party. Then arrive (following the dress code) when they open to score the best seats and views. Seriously, 5pm is too late.
- Lou LigouriApril 19, 2016Great view, good drinks. Prices are a little high and it bugs me that the bartenders expect a 20 percent tip on cocktails served at the bar. But...it's a rooftop so, I guess ill pay for the skyline.
- Pradnya WDecember 1, 2015Excellent views if not the best in the city. Recommend going on a slower night, staff is extra nice and enough seating to enjoy this beautiful place.
- Adela MouAugust 27, 2014Get ready to spend $17 on a mediocre-tasting cocktail or $11 on a beer. The view is great though, and the place is much less crowded than other rooftop lounges. Go for a drink and the view.
- Aashna SSeptember 7, 2019Discrimination. The door guy looked at my belly (I'm pregnant) and said he couldn't let us in because I was wearing flip flops. Watched him let him about 7 girls behind us all wearing flip flops.
- Elizabeth BursteinMay 31, 2017Fun evening lounge, very packed and hard to get a drink though. Awesome views and cool long blue pool
- Stan BashmashnikovSeptember 22, 2014Fantastic, unobstructed 360 views of Manhattan. Good happy hour. One of the best rooftops to watch a sunset over the Hudson.
- Roger HansenMarch 23, 2015Great views and good cocktails. Great place to have a drink before dinner at Print. Take your cocktail with you to dinner.
- Lindsey KimJuly 3, 2015There's no better place for grabbing a cocktail and watching the sunset than here.. Lots of seating!
- Ashley ChanAugust 7, 2016Classy, lounge-y and hip. I love this place for the cool vibes, delicious drinks and awesome views.
- Monti BrayAugust 17, 2014Come here for one of the best views of the city. Fill up the wallet though cause drinks ain't cheap!
- Ashley RamJuly 24, 2016It's a nice rooftop but I wouldn't want to stay here long nor did a lot of people who wanted to have a good time. The drinks are expensive though. And don't go on Saturday too crowded.
- Denis SosnovtsevOctober 17, 2014Gorgeous views of the skyline with comfy couches. Comes with blankets when it gets chilly, though they oddly don't serve warm drinks.
- ElisaOctober 22, 2012Order La Prensa....it's the perfect margarita for the fall- spiced pear and cinnamon. Plastic glasses make ordering wine not so fun. Great views but very quiet after work.
- Immi GagaJuly 30, 2011Hotel rooftop that is BEAUTIFUL! It is about 12 floors up. It has a view of the west side/Hudson River. Drinks are pricey ($15-20). Not a huge place but just enough space and classy.
- N XuNovember 9, 2013I love the fact that they offer very comfortable blankets if someone gets cold however prefers to stay outside under this weather.
- Johnnie SkywalkingMay 24, 2015You are glad to have panoramic view mode in your iPhone at this rooftop terrace.
- Jessica de OliveiraDecember 10, 2015Pricey drinks are a fair exchange for the best view of Manhattan right in Manhattan.
- Amy CummingsMarch 17, 2017Expensive drinks but you're paying for the amazing view! One of my favorite rooftops.
- Holly RingleFebruary 13, 2013If you're at the Javits and need to impress someone, bring them to The Press Lounge post-show for cocktails and exceptional city views
- Jenny FanJuly 25, 2017Beautiful views during sunset, expensive but interesting drinks that vary seasonally
- Tae KimAugust 13, 2014Great rooftop lounge. Get there early on weekend since there will be a massive line.
- A unique rooftop view of the city that can be comfortably enjoyed during any season.
- EchoDANovember 5, 2011There is no parapet! or well waist high wall built out of brick, it's a low glass wall, so the views make you feel like are floating into the nyc skyline!
- Best Rooftop view of the skyline of Manhattan & Hudson river and jersey! $16 cocktails & $11 beers. Opens daily at 5pm
- Ivy LiMay 13, 2012Pinnacle Whip & Fanta drink here is amazing. Not on the menu. You've got to ask for it. they'll serve it up in a tall glass.
- Bastian BeyerMay 29, 2012Awesome view! You have to do it! But very swanky crowd and staff, but who cares if the view is so nice
- Tina KangSeptember 13, 2014Amazing view! But bring a jacket -windy up there. Also no smoking on the rooftop!
- Kim D.November 13, 2012Amazing views! Enclosed area for chilly nights, but wool blankets provided if you want to sit outside for a bit.
- Alvin HoMay 27, 2012Great views of downtown and the river. Try the De Telegraaf, or go for a classic old fashioned.
