The large 5,000 square-foot Vale terrace is situated above Vale Park and offers guests an enjoyable space for a city poolside retreat. Chef Andrew Carmellini provides innovative small plates based on the popular street foods found below along with original cocktails. The open-air venue features natural shade, additional seating, and garden games.

The Westlight, a rooftop bar located on the 22nd floor, offers an elevated menu of bar snacks and handcrafted cocktails, rare spirits, beer, and wine. The magnificent view and sophisticated space combine for a memorable experience. Guests that are craving a more relaxed dining experience will enjoy Mister Dips.

2.0 Poor
Tiny room that was very overpriced. I understand rooms are small in NYC but this place would be a total rip-off if not for the view. Had a rate that included parking which they charged me for anyway. Much better places to stay in NYC.
