The Overview

Get even higher views of West Lake and beyond at Summit Lounge. The Sofitel Plaza’s 20th-floor bar was set to be a penthouse before it became a lounge. The place has kept the high-end abode theme with entry by a cozy private elevator, waitresses dressed as French maids with pink wigs, and retro red plastic egg chairs. The view, though, is the main attraction—with a near 360-degree outlook from the floor to ceiling windows, or from the outdoor terrace. Order a mojito topped with passion-fruit foam, and embrace your inner 80’s child as the weekend DJ mixes tunes from the era for a mixed crowd of expats and hip young Vietnamese.
