Pen Top, Rooftop bar and terrace in Midtown Manhattan, United States.
Pen Top is a rooftop bar and terrace on the 23rd floor of The Peninsula New York hotel in Midtown Manhattan, with both indoor and outdoor areas. Floor-to-ceiling windows and open terraces frame views toward Fifth Avenue and Central Park.
The space was originally known as Salon de Ning before being redesigned and renamed as Pen Top. This transformation reflects how the hotel refreshes its venues to stay current while maintaining its luxury service tradition.
The name Pen Top refers to both the elevated location and artistic character of the space. Visitors notice how people from across the city gather here to spend evenings in a relaxed yet refined setting.
The venue operates on limited days and requires smart casual dress when visiting. Plan to book ahead to secure a table, particularly during busy weekend evenings.
The interior draws from an artist's loft aesthetic, while heated outdoor terraces make the space usable year-round. Guests can enjoy the skyline even during cold months without sacrificing comfort.
