Fourteen floors up in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, The Standard’s rooftop bar looms like a haughty, beautiful sister. The quirky hotel chain has spawned an ultramodern environment, complete with space-age furniture in bright white, orange and red. The hipper-than-thou bartenders, dressed in red and white, serve overpriced and under-liquored drinks with nary a glance, but few visit for the libations; the view and central location attract most. The surrounding high-rise buildings, still lit, fashion a postcard-perfect scene of urban life. Two levels separated by a few stairs each have unique benefits: Downstairs, plush couches and better lighting accommodate groups; upstairs, you’ll lose yourself in the blue-lit pool’s glasslike surface. For the ultimate relaxation and privacy (though you may sacrifice some of the view), sink into a waterbed inside one of the domed bungalows upstairs. Here, you’ll encounter hipsters and homemakers alike, and many in the crowd are fresh off of work, dressed in suits and business-casual garb. Accordingly, music selection is diverse; Johnny Cash may croon between trance mixes and ‘50s dance tunes. Proximity to downtown restaurants and the 7th + Fig shopping and dining complex ensure you can easily make the Standard’s rooftop bar your last stop after a night of metropolitan revelry.
