the hotspot rooftop bar of Hotel Des Arts Saigon Mgallery

On top of the roof of the Hotel Des Arts Saigon Mgallery In Ho Chi Minh City, you'll find not only a stunning rooftop pool, but also the city's highest. Take a dip during the day and escape the chaos of the city center for a moment. In the evening, head to the Social Club Rooftop Bar next to the pool. When the sun sets, the DJ spins his tunes, cocktails are shaken, and dancing is a common occurrence. Naturally, we wanted to take in the breathtaking view and try out the cocktails. Besides a cocktail, we ordered a few bites: bao buns, tuna tartare, and, of course, fried squid. Be aware: you'll have to wait for a table; it gets very busy here, as you don't necessarily need to stay at the hotel to enjoy the view.

Inside, on this floor, you'll find the Social Club Restaurant, a place to admire the Saigon skyline through glass and enjoy a bite to eat. Here you'll find fresh, seasonal dishes inspired by European favorites.
