Chill Skybar Saigon is one of the most popular nightspots in Ho Chi Minh City. Located in District 1, this rooftop bar and clubs sits on the 25th floor of AB Tower and attracts a lively crowd who are dressed to impress and keen to party. There is a strictly enforced dress code here, so make a little effort if you plan to enjoy a cocktail up here (and definitely don’t wear Birkenstocks or flip-flops). The walk to the outside bar has a real wow factor about it, especially as you descend the few steps that lead to the terrace and take in the sweeping panorama for the first time. The bar uses lots of neon lighting that feels totally modern, and then far below you can see the hustle of the city. The bar opens at 17:30, just about an hour or so before sunset, and plays down tempo, chill out music through dusk, before livening things up around 22:00 when the DJ spins popular hip hop and dance music. Unlike other cocktail bars in Saigon, there is a dance floor inside Chill Skybar which becomes packed with the elites and fashion-forwards on weekends. It must be said that drinks here are very expensive. A cocktail costs close to US$20 and are well mixed, but no better than you will receive at other rooftop bars for half the price. There is however an excellent happy hour from 17:30 to 20:00 when all cocktails, long drinks and beers, and some wines and snacks are half price. The cocktail menu is a rather limited collection of classics, some of which have signature twists, such as the mojito, made with sugar syrup instead of brown sugar and a splash of champagne instead of soda.

Visite 25 décembre 2024. Alors j'ai pris mes renseignements sur quel était le meilleur rooftop de Saigon? Ce n'est pas très clair. En tout cas on m'a dit d'aller à celui-ci sans hésitation. C'est la dame de ma guesthouse qui me l'a dit en insistant que c'était cher et que c'était difficile de rentrer. Certains critiquent qu'ils ne peuvent pas rentrer ici avec des chaussures ouvertes donc je suppose des tongs ou des espadrilles ... ce qui est évident quand on va dans une mégapole on ne se balade pas comme quand on est à la plage ou pendant un trek ou dans un petit village charmant perdu ou milieu de nul part... Je suis arrivé à 17h40, il n'y avait personne. On m'avait quand même demandé si j'avais réservé alors qu'il y avait personne ça c'est trop rigolo... La vue est vraiment au-dessus de mes attentes. Je dirais qu'il faut absolument venir ici. Je suis venu ici alors je suis arrivé à Saigon 4h avant (première visite Vietnam). Donc, ça permet d'avoir une vue impressionnante de la ville Et de mieux comprendre la grandeur de la ville et son développement à la verticale. Je ne peux que recommander ce bar et je me demande pourquoi il y a autant de notes négatives. Si vous avez d'autres bars à recommander en rooftop, n'hésitez pas à répondre à ce post. Allez-y... il y a principalement des touristes. L'ambiance est bon enfant avec un peu d'ouverture d'esprit tout le monde se parle... Il est vrai que les garçons et les filles qui vous servent sont un peu collants, même s'ils peuvent vous aider à prendre des photos, j'ai déjà vu du personnel plus sympathique... L'endroit est top. Je recommande à 100 %. Mais on ne vient pas ici en maillot de bain avec des tongs... Ce qui est évident qu'on va visiter un rooftop chic en haut d'une tour dans un quartier cher d'une mégapole de 10 millions d'habitants... J'avais un jeans + une paire de Vans bleu marine et un polo bleu marine... Et on ne m' a fait aucune remarque... De plus, j'ajouterai qu'il y a un léger qui super agréable qui vous rafraîchit. L'ambiance est vraiment magique. J'ai parlé avec des touristes d'Afrique du Sud, du Japon d'Allemagne du Cambodge de partout autour du monde. Les gens sont relaxes et ouverts. Tout le monde était émerveillé par la vue. Pour le personnel, s'il vous plaît, soyez un peu plus sympa moins guindé et ne stressez pas les touristes dès qu' on arrive pour nous forcer à boire quelque chose. On fait d'abord nos photos et après on se pose et on profite avec un verre sur la table... Pour les prix, il y a une happy hour jusqu'à 20h. Cocktail à 230.000 Dong, bières à 150.000 Dong + des choses à manger.... J'ai beaucoup aimé la musique style house lounge.... Dynamique, juste ce qu'il faut. Très bien calibrée avec la vue et l'ambiance....

Went to chill sky bar on a Wednesday around 21:00, so there was maybe around 20 guests. When we arrived we were shown a standing table and when asking for a chair they told us there weren’t enough eventhough there was an empty couch and empty chairs around. We asked to have chairs as soon as they were available (honestly with these ridiculous prices I expect a chair when the bar is empty). When a table of 4 was emptied, the server brought us 1 chair eventhough we’re 2. We went eagle eyes for people leaving and grabbed a chair ourselves - all this with drinks being around 15€ each. I first had a cocktail which was okay but not on an exquisite mixologist level which I would expect for this price range. Afterwards I ordered a wine, a bit more expensive than the cocktail, which was NOT EVEN HALF the glass (See picture, this was how it was brought to the table). After I took 2 sips of the almost none existent wine in my glass, the waiter tried to take my glass away and asked me if I wanted to drink something else… the view and the lights were cool, but the laser was shot way too low: directly on the people in front of the bar and could’ve seriously harmed eyes and electronics. Very irresponsible. honestly I believe this place is a rip off.. more shine than being. not worth to go.

Visit to Chill Sky Bar last night was a total disaster. It started drizzling, so they wouldn't let us sit outside. We found a comfy place to sit inside, but the aircon wasn't on yet, so we started sweating. We ordered a couple cocktails and an appetizer (steamed dumplings), and the service was slow. The cocktails came out and they were totally uninspired. I ordered the Jalisco Fashioned and I could not taste the reposado at all. The prominent flavor was cinnamon :( My friend's drink tasted like a light citrus soda, at best. The food came much later, after we were done with our cocktails and ready to leave. We had to ask two servers for an update and neither came back with any information, so we just waited until the food arrived. We tried to use that time to take in a bit of the view, but were quickly escorted inside by an overly aggressive manager. Maybe because it was early and happy hour, but the visit was really disappointing. I'll give them one more chance because the venue is impressive, but those cocktails better have been an anomaly, because they were garbage.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND. DO NOT COME HERE. This place would not let us in because one of us were wearing sandals that looked like a "flip-flop". It is unbelievable as they did not mention any of this on the website or through a phone call prior. After they refused we requested to speak with a supervisor as we wanted to take some photos of the bar and buy a couple of drinks. (Their entry was 300,000 Dong by the way.) We said we would pay the fee and stay for a maximum of 15 minutes. The supervisor aggressively refused. After he refused the door men aggressively kicked us out of the venue. They pushed and shoved us and even kicked us. Mind you we are FOUR PETITE GIRLS, and these door men were a lot taller then us. I had my phone and was trying to videotape, one of the security started hitting my phone, injuring my hand as well. We were speaking, and they decided to use force on us. I'm appalled this happened at all, I do not recommend this place whatsoever. I have attached two photos of one of the men who physically pushed us out.

The best rooftop bar in Saigon! The place was so nice to hang out and watch the entire Ho Chi Minh city from above whilst sipping on cocktails! The cocktails are pricey for Vietnam but again you’re paying for the view as well! We went during happy hour which was from 5.30-8pm and the drinks were cheap! We went on a Wednesday night so couldn’t see how it goes off on the weekends but even on Wednesday, it filled up quite quickly with tourists and the music was really great! The staff were quick to serve drinks and the security guard had a mini flashlight on him which he switched on to help us take photos on the skydeck as it was a bit dark! Such a great idea! Overall, would definitely recommend if you’re going to Saïgon and want a nice bar and a great view without paying a fortune!
