Saigon rooftop lounge guide — where to start the first drink

A Saigon night usually begins on a rooftop. Here is when the skyline lights up and how to get a good seat.

01best time

The peak time is around 18:30 when the sun sets. It is difficult to get a window seat during these times without a reservation. After 21:00, live music starts and the atmosphere changes.

02fee structure

Most tables have a minimum order amount, and private rooms have an hourly room charge. Cocktails are per glass and wine is per bottle.

03getup

Shorts and slippers are restricted from entering many places. For men, long pants and a shirt are sufficient.

04to the next seat

Two hours in the lounge is enough. It is a common trend in Saigon to then move to a private room or late-night dining.
