About this venue

Oh, brace yourself, babe, because The Standard, High Line is the absolute epicenter of downtown nightlife drama, exhibitionist architecture, and queer-celebrated glamour. Literally straddling the High Line park on massive concrete pillars, this glass monolith is world-famous for its floor-to-ceiling windows that invite you to serve pure main-character energy to the public (yes honey, the city can see in, and that is half the fun).Ascend to the top floor and you will find Le Bain, a legendary penthouse discotheque featuring a world-famous indoor plunge pool, a state-of-the-art sound system hosting iconic queer DJ collectives, and a rooftop terrace serving breathtaking 360-degree views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline. Downstairs, you can flirt over German beers in the high-energy Biergarten, cozy up at the upscale Standard Grill, or lounge in the art-filled Living Room. It is bold, fiercely unapologetic, and the ultimate playground for fashion icons, nightlife royalty, and beautiful creatures of the night.

Venue intelligence

Know before you go

Check-in wait

Hotel check-in follows the booked reservation; rooftop and BOOM events may have separate tickets, security and queues. Do not assume a room grants party entry. Late weekend arrivals also meet Meatpacking traffic and event noise, so confirm both access and room placement.

Best time to stay

Choose a dated BOOM or Pride event for queer programming; the hotel’s Pride 2026 series featured queer performers and hosts. Outside those dates, book for High Line location and nightlife, with higher noise risk on active rooftop nights.

Guest mix

Mainstream hotel guests, fashion and nightlife visitors use the property; BOOM and Pride events add queer performers, LGBTQ+ groups and allies. The event crowd should not be projected onto every hotel floor or ordinary night.

Dress expectations

Hotel entry has no club code. BOOM and Pride events may call for polished, expressive nightlife looks, but the ticket controls. Wear practical city layers and ask for a quieter room if club or rooftop noise would undermine the stay.

Staff inclusion

Hosting an explicit Pride programme is concrete LGBTQ+ engagement, though guest reports about general service remain mixed. Confirm names, access and quiet-room needs directly with reception; event staff and hotel staff handle different parts of the experience.
