Memmo Alfama
The simple, contemporary ambience of Memmo Alfama‘s Terrace is achieved through white marble and its decoration in shades of white and red. The outdoor pool surprises by the red tones, in perfect integration with the roofs of the neighbourhood. The entire terrace is filled with various nooks to sit, have a drink or simply enjoy the amazing view. The Wine Bar offers a selection of high-quality products, combining the authenticity of Portuguese gastronomy and wines with breathtaking views of the river.
Terraço BA
This small rooftop terrace of Hotel Bairro Alto is filled with comfortable sofas and chairs, from where you can enjoy a unique view over the city to the sound of chill-out music. Cocktails and light meals are served here, but be prepared to wait for a vacant table, as this is a space that is almost always full.
Sky bar Hotel Tivoli
The Sky bar Hotel Tivoli is a rooftop right in the centre of the capital. On the top floor of the Hotel Tivoli, the fantastic view over Lisbon and the delicious cocktails make this a unique and unrepeatable experience. This is also the scene of gastronomic discoveries that satisfy all palates and leave no one outside.
17º Restaurant & Bar
Seeing Porto from the 17th floor of a hotel with food and drink of the best quality is not utopian: just visit the 17th Restaurant & Bar. The views range from some higher parts of the city, all downtown and the sea, deep in the background. It’s with this scenario that, staying inside the room decorated by Paulo Lobo or on the terrace (which in winter is heated) you can eat some classic dishes of regional and traditional Portuguese cuisine.

Upscale bar
The UpScale Bar is one of the best rooftops in Lisbon and a true oasis in the centre of the city. The infinity pool invites you to a swim on warm summer days and the lounge beds are perfect for a moment of relaxation after a hard day’s work. The menu offers alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, which you can accompany with various snacks and sandwiches. Try the UpScale Colada – a refreshing cocktail with pineapple juice, coconut ice cream and rum – or a gin.
Zenith Lounge
From May to October, the 15th floor of the HF Ipanema Park welcomes us with a rooftop full of different musical entertainment every day. In addition to the best cocktails and live music, this is one of the best views of Porto. Lots of dancing, lots of music and delicious food and drinks are the ingredients that seem to make a perfect end of afternoon at Zenith Lounge.
Best rooftops in Portugal: PARK bar
With amazing views over the city of Lisbon, the PARK bar is a breathtaking rooftop in Bairro Alto. At sunset it is almost impossible to get a table, with DJ sets – usually two a day: one in the afternoon and one in the evening. The list of cocktails you must try includes lemon, strawberry or banana daiquiris, gin cocktails, caipirinhas, whiskey sours or pina coladas.
