I suggest you have a look at the beautiful views of the city skyline. But don't order a drink. We were charged $60 for two negronis. They were in a plastic cup, a short pour, and not very good.

Organized a private event there and everything was perfect. The team was super responsive and easy to work with. Such an underrated, beautiful, fun spot!

Drinks are a little pricey here but the views are what you're paying for so overall a cool rooftop bar!

The pool area is closed for winter season.Inside the rooftop, you get drinks in plastic glass and bear in a can. This is something that you don’t expect. The bar on the top is very small and virtually don’t exist.The dance floor is nice and views are great :)

Amazing view! Pretty private. If you’re not staying at the hotel, you have to walk down (2 stories) outside to use the restroom. Very limited menu and $21 for an incredible, but smallest version of an espresso martini served in a solo cup.

We hosted a private event at The Water Tower Bar and it exceeded our expectations! Victoria and team were beyond helpful in the planning process, sending floor plans and answering our every little detailed question. Our guests were so impressed by the space, food, atmosphere, and views—highly recommend!

Water tower has some nice sight lines of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens; however, they have some pricey cans of Brooklyn Lager at $13. I'd prefer an admission fee, but you gotta pay the troll toll if you want to see the boy's

The water tower is an absolutely decadent and beautiful experience. It's magical and I would recommend everyone to see it at least once. Given it has now been infested with tourists and people coming here to get a perfect instagram post, I have visited it in the past when it was not as popular, and had an amazing time. I would suggest coming when the weather is not exactly ideal so that way there is less foot traffic. Since its a literal water tower, the space is limited so be mindful this place gets packed quickly but also have common sense when going to a place that is well known, there will be a lot of people wanted to see it as well. The prices are synonymous with what is available in that area as a drink runs you $22. Nice interior, a few small tables and you will see people dressed to the nines. They have food but I have yet to try it. I think this is a great place to end the night or enjoy a birthday or a festivity!

They won’t let you in if you have leftovers from dinner elsewhere. So don’t make plans to go out for dinner and grab a nightcap here if you have a take home bag.

Paid $30 cover to get in on a Friday night. The views are nice and the concept is cool. A tequila pineapple was $20. Overpriced rooftop. Wouldn't go again but nice to see once.
Can’t beat the views and novelty of dancing on a water tower. Music is pretty good most nights and it’s usually free to enter. Drink prices are high but to be expected in a hotel.

Beautiful location for pictures. The bar left much to be desired. They generally only served drinks found on the menu. Be prepared to pay over $20 for a single mixed drink. The Water Tower bar was overly crowded and very loud.

Turn around. It's a scam. If you are a men you will pay an entry fee just to go inside and realise there is a queue of 40 min to get inside but no one will tell you about it before paying the fee. Scam.
