About this space

Rooftop Terrace & Bar is a semi-private rooftop area in Sora Rooftop & Bar defined by elevated skyline views that frame the bar and seating.

Design: The space has a contemporary club-style interior of dark floors, backlit stone panels, slim banquettes and metal detailing, lit by low-level LED and recessed lighting.

Features: The area contains a staffed in-house bar serving cocktails, flexible table-and-chair seating and an open standing area that functions as a small dancefloor. The space also benefits from natural light through rooftop glazing and climate control via air conditioning.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a lively, social standing reception or an informal seated drinks gathering that emphasises mingling and music.

What sets it apart: A dedicated sound installation allows hosts to bring their own DJ, with built-in PA speakers and hardwired connections for live sets.

What guests say: The space has a strong cocktail selection and attentive, accommodating bar staff, and the music and service support a lively evening.
