Photos doesn’t do justice. Beautiful view!! food is good, great service. No reservation needed but can get really busy though.
I’ve been here a few times, and I’d still give it 5 stars every time. I love coming here around sunset to enjoy the view while eating some small bites and enjoying some cocktails. It’s at the top of the Marriott Marquis in Yerba Buena.If you want a 360 degree view of the city, definitely come up here! The views from the heart of the city is gorgeous, and the vibe is pretty cool. It can get a bit busy on the weekend, so I’d come early or come on a weekday night. There are two main sides, the best tables being right at the window.I hosted my friend’s birthday celebration at the hotel and then we came up from her room to the View Lounge and it was so convenient. Definitely recommend!
Visit this fun place as recommended by front desk. The view lounge is located at the 39th floor of San Francisco Marriott Marquis Hotel. Upon entering, they look for your hotel key. The view from this lounge is so beautiful and it was full packed on this Saturday. Manage to take some picture. It serves food and drink with a fantastic view.
We had a drink at the view lounge. However a whole glass of wine was pored over my shirt, trousers and shoes. The compensation for this was at least said minimal as we only were offered the drinks for free. My clothes on the other hand are out of service for the rest of the vacation, disappointing!
Visited the view lounge SF from the UK on the 10th of May. As soon as we got there we were told to find a seat and someone would be with us. After 30 minutes of waiting we finally got served. The waitress was insistent that a card needed to be put down prior to ordering any food to “open a tab”. We’ve never heard of this but as she was so insistent and told us that it was just to “hold our money” until the final bill was sorted as we wanted to pay in cash. The waitress took my card and straight away I had a notification that the whole amount in my bank account was taken out. When she came back we told her that my money had been taken, she again was adamant that it would go back onto my card as soon as we closed our bill in cash. So we ordered food to share and a drink each, asked for the bill and paid in cash and leaving a really generous tip considering. We got in the lift and then I realised that I still hadn’t been refunded my money. We spent 30 minutes going up and down in the lift trying to get back to the rooftop bar but as it was after 10:30pm they don’t allow the lifts back up. We went to reception who then said that the waitress gave us the wrong information and that the refund would take time to go back onto my card. We tried explaining that they’d actually taken ALL of my money that was in my account for my holiday. Again the receptionist was NO help and said these things take time (like all banks and cards etc) and we should have the refund 5-7 working days. It’s been nearly 2 weeks since our visit to the view lounge in SF /- I’ve currently returned to the UK still with NO refund! I’ve contacted both the view lounge via social media and the Marriott hotel who have also read my messages but NOT had the professionalism to reply to me! I’ve now opened a case with my bank as this is daylight robbery making you hand over your card and NOT giving a refund even though you pay in cash. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND GOING HERE AS THE HASSLE ISNT WORTH IT UNLESS YOU HAVE MONEY TO WASTE ON THIN-AIR!
The place has amazing views on SF, however cocktails were not the best. They weren't bad but different style to what we are used to in Europe. Non-alcoholic cocktail was way too sweet and tasted like orange juice about to expire. But chocolate cake was 10/10.
Fantastic views and great atmosphere. Find your own table and then waiting staff come to you. Highly recommend the seasonal flatbread. It’s quite pricey but you are paying for a superb view and good experience
Have been living in SF for two years now … and have to say hands down this is best bar to get a rye Manhattan!!Also the staff here is really amazing. We were able to get a seat by the window even though it was a busy evening. Was worth enjoying our cocktails with those amazing views! Love SF
My husband and I were staying at the Marquis and decided to have a quick bite and beverage at The View Lounge right at 4pm, when they opened. As expected, the view was beautiful, so if you want a great view, then that's the spot to go. If you're going for food, this probably isn't the spot if you are foodies like us. We had gotten the beef & chicken sliders and the chicken was dry and both the sliders lacked flavor. The short rib tacos were beautiful to look at, but also lacked flavor - although they were definitely the best dish out of the three. I'm trying to figure out the best medium for rating this place, so I went with the average when considering the food, customer service & view (if I could give half stars, it would have been 3.5). We went here on our first day in SF and didn't feel the urge to return for a second visit.
