Editorial Review for View Lounge – by Kevin Raub
In Short
This bar and lounge occupies the entire 39th floor and consists of two large rooms, each stuffed with chairs and tables strategically placed in view-friendly spots. There's a piano for live jazz and a gigantic, semicircular, jukebox-shaped window in each room offering views over the Bay Bridge (to the east), and Twin Peaks and City Hall (to the west). Specialty cocktails include the Raspberry Cookie--Vox raspberry vodka, Jägermeister, butterscotch schnapps, Bailey's and Goldschlager.

User Reviews for View Lounge

I was staying at the Marriott that View Lounge is located within, so we stopped here at the end of several evenings during out stay. The drinks were good when they finally came, although quite expensive. The view is beautiful as expected. It's great for a drink or two and the end or beginning of your evening but not someplace I would stay at night. Definitely recommended if you're staying at the Marriott.
Pros: the view!
Cons: slow service, expensive drinks

It's all about the view from the top. Drinks are average, but pricey. Service was pretty slow even though the place wasn't crowded.
Pros: View, View, Valet parking
Cons: Service, Unvalidated parking
