I think this should do what you need...

DateTime today = DateTime.Today;
DateTime dt = new DateTime(today.Year, today.Month, today.Day, 16, 0, 0);

Take a look at all the overloaded constructors for DateTime.

DateTime myDate = new DateTime(DateTime.Today.Year, DateTime.Today.Month, DateTime.Today.Day, 16, 0, 0);

Edit: Correction. Thanks Jon. :)

var anotherTime = DateTime.Today.AddHours(16.0);

You want DateTime.Today.AddHours(16)

DateTime.Today will return today's date at midnight.
You can also use the Date property to drop the time from an arbitrary DateTime value.
