Venue Detail
The Standard, High Line
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
The Standard, High Line can build a proper entry line when the main crowd lands. Arrive before peak time instead of joining the latest rush.
Best time to stay
A weekend stay lets you use more of The Standard, High Line's social spaces; weekdays suit a quieter base. Major Pride and festival dates need the earliest booking.

Dress expectations
No special look is needed for check-in. Smart casual works for The Standard, High Line's lobby, restaurant, rooftop or evening spaces without feeling overdressed.
Staff inclusion
The Standard, High Line's queer identity is built into the room or programme, so LGBTQ+ guests are the intended community rather than an afterthought.
