Good views/ photo spot for empire state. No queue time and lots of seats. You can just go up for the view, don’t need to buy an overpriced drink. Lots of security too

We visited on Saturday, December 20, and didn’t need a reservation. The rooftop is much bigger than it looks in photos, with plenty of outdoor seating, beautiful Christmas decorations, and great music. It was very cold, so the warm robes they provide were a great touch. There’s a good selection of drinks and appetizers, and the indoor area is also spacious with good music, space to dance, and fast bar service. We loved it — definitely worth it

When looking for this rooftop bar you need to go inside the hotel foyer & use the lift. Takes straight up to the roof top bar! Easy to find. We had to have a drink here for the views however the terrace was shut due to the snow. We still had a lovely afternoon & the champagne was gorgeous!

My sister and I enjoyed a refreshment at the 230 Fifth Rooftop Bar, on a beautiful late September day. The view was terrific with the Empire State Building directly in front of us, and it's surrounding buildings that are modern and so very cool. Service is order yourself at the outside bar, choose a table and relax. We did not try any food. Plants and flowers were all around, a very nice atmosphere to enjoy.

Great views, drinks are decent and decently priced. Food is okay. There may be some what of a wait to go up but it goes by very quick. I think the music is best at the main room. But for the view you must go to the roof top. It can be a bit challenging to find a spot or place to sit at fyi.

Fantastic view, very nice bar and place, very nice christmas decoration. Were 1 week in NYC, wss one of the best decorations we have seen. Film experience "kevin alone in NY" was good! The Service was also good. The Manager gave us 1 popcorn for free, because of a mistake in describtion on the homepage eventbrite. There we have booked the tickets. The only thing i missed was a cocktail card for specials we perhaps do not know in Europe :-) Was only online and there are many tourists from all over the world. Would spending time again at this beautiful place! Thanks!

I really like this place, I took my husband and his best friend and wife, this was our first experience in a place like this. I will be honest with my opinion, I made the reservation weeks before Valentine's weekend for the Igloo area, and they reach out to me stating that due to the weather My reservation was moved to indoors, but that I was able to go outside and take pictures which we were impressed when we went to the rooftop it was packed full of people and that makes us very disappointed 😞, we were looking out for this view. I hope that for the future We can Actually get the Igloo.

Celebrating New Year’s Eve 2026 at 230 Fifth Rooftop was nothing short of spectacular—and truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that getting a table was the best decision we could have made. Having appetizers and a bottle delivered directly to our table as part of the package elevated the entire night and allowed us to relax and fully enjoy the celebration without fighting crowds. The layout was incredibly well thought out: despite being a packed NYE event, it never felt uncomfortably crowded. There were endless photo opportunities with the iconic skyline as the backdrop, making every moment feel special and memorable. The energy throughout the night was electric. The DJs were phenomenal, keeping the vibe high and the party going nonstop. A huge shout-out to our waiter, Abu Karim, who was absolutely outstanding—attentive, professional, and on top of everything all night long. His service alone made the experience feel seamless and VIP. The open bar was fantastic, and the round rooftop igloos were such a cool touch—easy to access, warm, and perfect for enjoying drinks while taking in the views. Even better, they provided robes for guests who wanted to stay outside on the rooftop, proving that they truly thought of every detail. Coming all the way from California, spending New Year’s Eve in New York City was a bucket-list dream—and this night at 230 Fifth was the cherry on top. From start to finish, it exceeded every expectation imaginable. Thoughtful planning, incredible atmosphere, top-tier service, and unforgettable memories made this a 10/10 experience. I would absolutely do it again without hesitation and highly recommend it to anyone looking to ring in the New Year in the most iconic way possible.

Excellent experience, stunning view & well maintained. I visited in December 2025, right on the day of NYC snow storm, roof top was magical. Staff did good job in cleaning the snow. Igloos were well maintained & were heated. It was quite an experience to sit in a igloo & enjoy your drinks. FYI, your food & drink will be delivered in the igloo itself. Restaurant was just one level below to the rooftop & it was spacious, clean & decorated well. I loved the food, specially avocado toast, fries & waffle.
