High Note SkyBar is a rooftop bar at the Aria Hotel in District V with views of St Stephen's Basilica from a remarkably close angle. The bar is on the top floor of the hotel and the terrace is intimate rather than panoramic.
The cocktails are precise. The drinks programme is more disciplined than at most Budapest rooftops. The food menu is upscale modern Hungarian.
The crowd is hotel guests, mid-thirties Budapest professionals, and special-occasion couples. Pair with 360 Bar for a Budapest rooftop comparison evening.
