    Comfy cosy place to chill out, habe a cocktail and some snacks or even sit around a sofa and enjoy shisha. Great views, would be wonderful to view the sunset from here. The night aura is very nice with dimly lit atmosphere.

    The best place to visit with friends or family, Its open area can not avoid smoking, Beautiful view from roof top. Mr Kapila really help us on menu and drinks. Staff are friendly. Food also good.. Ask for any promotion or happy hours. Only disappointment when its rain you will get wet . Don't forget to ask their special cocktails.

    Amazing place. The view is fantastic. I think it eill be short lived as there are 2 buildings coming up inbetween the sea and the hotel, its best to go and enjoy it as it is there. There is an infinity pool whixh u can enjoy while having a mojito from the roof top bar. Well spacious and a decent place even to have a meeting. Takr sometime to enjoy this.

    Great location with a panoramic view of the city. Ambiance is ideal for a relaxing drink with a cool breeze. Staff is friendly and helpful. They have a great range of food with both alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages. Prices seems reasonable and worth the experience.

    Wasn’t crowded since we visited on a Sunday. Mind blowing views of both seaside and the city. A slow nonstop breeze hits you due to the location which is very relaxing. Cocktails are reasonably priced and has a relatively good selection. Staff is friendly and well trained. And of course the sunsets are Instagram worthy.

    Vistas Roof Top Bar is well hidden. Go to Liberty plaza and stroll to Mövenpick hotel, then enter (there are security checks as on the airport), then take the express elevator to the roof. Once there, you enter a posh bar with a spectacular view. They have an interesting range of cocktails, beers and the usual drinks you would expect. A selection of some dishes is available as well. Definitely a place to stay for longer.

  • 5/5 Adeesha Savinda de S. 1 year ago on Google • 174 reviews
    One of the best rooftop bars you can visit in Colombo. The building is also one of the tallest in the city. Has a perfect atmosphere. We went there in an evening. The food is average. Price is reasonable. The cocktails are good. The achcharu, one of their signature cocktails is one of the best ♥️

  • 3/5 Thisura M. 5 years ago on Google • 154 reviews
    Came here for dinner on a Friday night. Got 2 tequila shots, fish and chips and hot butter cuttlefish. The fish and chips were really good. The batter used for the fish was light and fluffy with a nice flavour. The HBC could've been better tho. It was very oily and I didn't quite like the seasoning they used on it. The price came upto almost 5500 bucks with taxes which I felt was a bit steep.

    Check the bill carefully because they are scammers. The view is just great, nothing good, the taste is bad.The electricity went out for a while. This is very annoying

    Nice view of the ocean. However, kinda open and no shade from the sun. The service quality and staff attitude disappointed us. We were made to wait for ten minutes before we could get a menu while we sat at the bar. Had to remind them twice and wait for another twenty minutes just to pay the bill. Need to up their service game to be called a ‘5 star hotel’.

    Be careful bartenders are cheating on your cocktails, they don’t add the recommended liquor volume to you cocktail unless you shout at them. Good ambiance poor management I guess.

  • 5/5 kumaran t. 5 years ago on Google
    Vistas rooftop bar and lounge is located on the top of Movenpick. This an exact cool place to go with friends. The staffs are very professional and friendly. The service is really good. The city view from here is really amazing, since its located on rooftop. Especially in the night time, the view is more nice. And there is an awesome pool in the corner. They have a big screen to stream the sports also.

    Love the atmosphere, and one of the best roof top to enjoy the sunset.. however we were disappointed because, in the main entrance it self they have mentioned, there is a minimum amount for spending( it was not publicly available anywhere else) further the boost was very diluted and food was not that good

  • 2/5 Michael H. 3 years ago on Google
    Disappointing. The Atmosphere and location is very good. Food and drinks are the downer. Cocktails lacking a balance and flavour. We had the 'Winky Pinky' which had too many seeds in it which was off putting, the beer I ordered was not chilled enough and the beer mug itself wasn't chilled. The food also really needs a upgrade as it lacks any real taste and flavour. Also, more selection of food on the menu would he good.

    So chilled out. Perfect for a Sunday evening to have a shisha and hangout. Tied pasta, spaghetti and the sandwiches. All portions are huge af and worth the money for sure

    It's was a memorable night..

  • 2/5 Becci R. 2 years ago on Google
    View is awesome and had a good night because of the people we were with, but it's massively overpriced on both food and drink, food portions were so miniscule, I had the tuna tortilla and it was 2 tiny rolls the length and width of finger with a tiny coleslaw in one lettuce leaf, some sauce and a salsa and that was around rs1300. Draft beer wasn't on so had to buy bottled which pushed the price up too. We had maybe 6 drinks each and 1 dish each, and once they had added 10% on plus taxes the bill was around RS24,000. They also messed our bill up with the other table, we still thought it was too high after they sorted it, but they weren't having any of it so just paid it. Won't be going back

  • 2/5 AQEEL M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place to hang out and chill... But what's the use if the food sucks.. We jst started with a chocolate milkshake and a hot chocolate..... Both were utterly dissapointing.... For a hotel with such a good reputation this restaurant us a disgrace.... We jst paid close to 1800 jst for the two things abv.... Its alright if it was good... But it wasn't.... Ddt even dare to try the food....

  • 1/5 Bimsari L. 1 year ago on Google
    Worst experience ever!!! Went there to watch the final cricket match of Asia cup as they have advertised they will show it in big screen. But they couldn't show it to a part of the audience and when we inquired about that, manager responded us arrogantly. Will never visit there. Also food menu is very limited

  • 2/5 Nuwan 9 months ago on Google
    Went for some cocktails and snacks. Signature cocktail Achcharu was unique and nice. However, heavily diluted so couldn’t taste any alcohol (gin) in it. Food was an utter disappointment! We ordered tempura prawns which was not ok. Then we wanted to order one more item and most of the items were not available. When we wanted to replace beef with either chicken or mutton in mixed skewers, request was refused without giving any valid reason. Then we ordered a seafood skewers, which was one of the worst I’ve ever had. They were deep fried and chewy. All and all, nice atmosphere wasted with pricey average cocktails and terrible food.

  • 1/5 vivek s. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the worst place to be in terms of service. The tables more than 4 in number with a view were kept vacant for more than 3 hours but not allotted to anyone inspite of numerous requests. The staff was arrogant and after having an showdown were offered a table. The same thing happened during are last visit also. Srilanka invites people to visit and stay in good places but the treatment offerd is quite pathetic and concerned authorities need to look into the same. Last time with Movenpick Colombo. .

  • 5/5 Shereen K. 2 years ago on Google
    Affordable and delicious food. It’s the rooftop bar of the Mövenpick hotel and got a nice view of city lights. Open from 10.00 am to mid night. Not much crowded. Friendly staff.

  • 3/5 Pasindu W. 1 year ago on Google
    Has a good view of colombo city and the atmosphere is also good. But everything gets ruined when it starts to rain, we had to shift to 3 different tables. Food is not worth for the price, specially the mixed grill. Cocktails are good.

  • 1/5 Madusha T. 1 year ago on Google
    Service is not recommended. Ordered a Bloody Mary Cocktail. It did not have the adequate amount of alcohol didn’t really feel like a cocktail, it felt more like a mocktail. Place is nice but the service is not at all recommended. Needs massive improve

  • 1/5 Rahal P. 1 year ago on Google
    Ruined the fealing of the Asia cup Final. Glad we decided to came home after 5 overs. One screen was not working. There management had no clue to resolve the issue. People were standing everywhere. Overwhelming crowd was allowed. 0 service. I blamed the management and there answer was this is a hotel and not a cricket ground. Then please stop organizing these events.
