Sip cocktails on a wrap-around terrace above Times Square
Creative cocktails and low-key conversation on a terrace where the sunset lights the surrounding skyscrapers.
Sunset on the 17th floor 🌇
The elevator opens on the 17th floor of The Knickerbocker, and the room unfolds into a wrap-around terrace with indoor seating for colder months. St. Cloud borrows its name from the hotel that stood on this Times Square corner in the late 1800s, and the space keeps that older, quieter register. The music stays low enough for a real conversation, and soft lighting settles over the living garden walls as the evening moves on. The sun drops out of direct view, though the sunset still catches the surrounding skyscrapers and washes the glass in warm color. The bar leans on creative cocktails, with craft beers and seasonally-inspired small plates rounding out the list. Come up before the light fades, find a spot along the railing, and watch Midtown shift from gold to blue.
