The Roof

Located by the rooftop pool on the Four Seasons Hotel Beirut’s 26th floor, this modish urban tapas lounge offers the perfect perch from which to enjoy sundowners and the season’s hottest club tunes. The Roof's wrap-around panoramic views showcase Beirut’s downtown skyline, mountains and the Mediterranean Sea.

A floating oasis, the open-air lounge – the highest in Beirut – is a chilled-out place to sample the best of the city's nightlife, with a live DJ spinning tracks until closing. This ain’t no sneaker-and-jeans kind of place, though you may get away with a more relaxed attire on weekdays (ladies be sure to bring your jackets, the breeze can be more of a wind up there, specially if you’re sitting in the more exposed section). A simple yet suave menu of tapas and Asian-inspired bites includes crisp salads, siu mai dumplings and satays. The beverage list offers an impressive selection of cocktails, coolers, wine and smoothies made from the freshest ingredients. If you’re in the mood for a little sophistication, this is the place to be.
