Where the View Comes with a Drink
Sometimes we choose a hotel because of what’s happening on the roof. Rooftop Bar brings together the places where we like to see the city from above—cocktail in hand, sunglasses on and, preferably, suncream applied. From glamorous skyline bars and hidden urban terraces to rooftops made for long lunches and sunset drinks, these are hotels where going upstairs is an essential part of the stay.
