The Carlton Rooftop Bar

  • Rooftop bar
  • Bar

Climb the stairs at The Carlton Club and you’ll find yourself somewhere a little unexpected – a tropical escape, right in the heart of the city. A secluded rooftop hideaway filled with lush tropical gardens, bougainvillea, twenty full-sized palms, bamboo detailing and an iconic thatched hut bar.

Settle in, stay awhile and sip your way through a cocktail list with plenty of attitude, house-made vodka infusions and a seriously good selection of local and international beers, whisky, wine and cider.

Whether you’re there for one drink or planning to make a night of it, The Carlton Rooftop is your island escape – no passport required.
