  • Named after its location in Chelsea's Flower District, The Fleur Room nightclub opened as a part of Moxy's latest New York City hotel in March.
  • Along with 360-degree views of Manhattan, the bar features a 6-foot disco ball that formerly hung in the iconic Vertigo nightclub in Los Angeles.
  • Designed by Angelo Bianchi and the TAO Group, the 35th-floor space surpassed Sky Room, which, at 34 floors, previously held the record for highest nightclub bar.

The space, with floor-to-ceiling windows on all four sides, offers clear views of surrounding Manhattan buildings, most notably the Empire State Building. Located on the 35th floor, it surpassed Sky Room as the highest nightclub bar in NYC, and features a disco ball that once belonged to Los Angeles club Vertigo.

Several celebrities have already visited the space, including Mick Jagger to celebrate his new ballet production, Idris Elba at the hotel's opener, and Chace Crawford at a private birthday party. According to a hotel representative, several more private birthday parties are already booked, too.
