According to the New York Post, Two and A Half Men star, Charlie Sheen, was caught in a coke-fueled debacle at the prestigious Plaza Hotel on New York's Upper East Side after a fun-filled weekend with his two daughters, Sam and Lola. After engaging in a night of New York-style partying, police were called to the hotel after Sheen allegedly went on a rampage after he believed that the unidentified woman he brought back to his place stole his wallet and belongings.
In honor of Sheen's Hollywood style escapades, I'm here to list the top 5 PATH-adjacent hotel rooftop bars- namely the places to see and be seen after a long day at the office- sans the drama and the damages!
The Standard Rooftop
While many a night the trendy bar will be closed due to private parties and events, one can enjoy an autumn sunset over Lower Manhattan from the comfort of plush loungers in the early evening. With its hipster artistry and its notorious private jacuzzi for a late-night rendezvous, this bar is perfect for a transformative day to night experience.
Located at 848 Washington Street
The Ritz Carlton Battery Park
Located in close proximity to the World Trade Center PATH in downtown Battery Park, this bar falls nothing short of its ritzy reputation. To enjoy a quiet and relaxing Liberty Martini with a view of Lower Manhattan, nothing beats this rooftop experience.
Located at 2 West Street
The Hotel Gansevoort Rooftop
Located in the trendy Meatpacking District, this selection provides one of the most stellar views of Manhattan's West Side and not to mention a clear view of Hoboken's waterfront. While I love to grab the Patron Martini after a relaxing Sunday brunch at Dos Caminos, this is the pre-gaming place for a fun-filled Friday or Saturday night. Equip with a rooftop pool, fireplaces, and plush seating areas one could never go wrong.
Located at 18 9th Avenue
The Ace Hotel
This brand-spanking new hangout, located conveniently close to the 33rd Street PATH stop, is destined to become one of Manhattan's classic hotspots. Come to this trendy hotel for great views of the Empire State Building and to enjoy The Breslin Bar and Dining room- a new Midtown favorite!
Located at 20 W 29th St
The Gramercy Park Hotel
While I have a special memory of this rooftop experience, in which the hotel staff offered my mother and I a complimentary bottle of Champagne on my 21st birthday, I have to say this is one of the most relaxing and romantic spots in the city. Conveniently located off the 23rd Street station stop, I'd suggest this as the perfect pre-date regimen with its quant, country-style ambiance and sophisticated service.
Located at 2 Lexington Ave
So, next time you consider your next Happy Hour spot after a long day at the office, check out one of these astounding hotels for a relaxing view, decadent cocktails, and a photog-free evening several stories high. Just remember not to get too wild, Charlie's damages are nearing the tens of thousands!
