Rooftop lounge seating at SUMMIT

Make time for Après: skyline plus sips is a signature SUMMIT pairing. Time it right so you don’t miss the best terrace light.


Timing Strategy

  • Terrace First: Capture photos while light is prime; head to Après after.
  • Sunset Slots: Aim to sit 20–30 minutes after sunset to enjoy the glow.

Best Times Table

Goal When
Golden portraits 30–60 min before sunset
Blue-hour city glow 0–30 min after sunset
Night lights 30–90 min after sunset

Seating and Comfort

  • Ask about wind-screened seats on breezier days.
  • Bring a light layer—AC plus altitude can feel cool.

What to Order

  • Seasonal cocktails and mocktails; light bites rotate.
  • Check for specials or drink vouchers tied to your ticket.

Budget Tips

  • Share a snack plate; save the splurge for a signature drink.
  • If you’re photo-focused, order after your terrace session.
