After six years of great success, the SkyBar, located on the 22nd floor of the Reval Hotel Lietuva, has been completely renovated. Come up and see the results!
First unveiled together with the opening of Reval Hotel Lietuva in 2003, the SkyBar was rated by Bradmans Business Travel Guide Europe as Europe’s best panoramic bar in 2005. Among the citizens of Vilnius, the SkyBar was always well known as the ideal place to go on a first date. Together with visitors to the Lithuanian capital, they stop at the SkyBar for what are truly the best views of Vilnius and a choice of over 70 classic cocktails, ranked by the bar’s numerous loyal customers as being the best in the city.
Guests have already noticed that the winds of change are blowing at the SkyBar. The comprehensive makeover was done between two celebrations: SkyBar closed its doors on February 15th, the day after St Valentine’s Day, and reopened on March 8th in time for International Women’s Day. The three-week makeover involved upgrading the facilities, the overall look and the ambience of the venue. Interior designers from Norway, Einar Salomonsen and Anne Bjornstad, wanted to make the bar warm, intimate and modern, while not forgetting its essential functionality and efficiency. They divided the bar into three separate areas, so that guests can choose the corner they prefer, and also making it suitable for different parties and private events. Guests prefer a private area to themselves wherever possible so that they can be at the heart of their entertaining.
The SkyBar’s old cool blue colours have been changed to a decidedly warmer combination of chocolate brown, gold, black and turquoise. Many textures were brought in especially for the SkyBar from the London-based Designers Guild, one of the foremost international lifestyle companies designing and manufacturing furnishing fabrics, wall coverings, furniture, fragrance and accessories.
Particularly new and exciting at the SkyBar is the music policy. Soft, cozy and relaxing lounge music is being specially designed and managed by DJ Zy. Guests can enjoy his live performances on Friday and Saturday nights every week.
Located on the top floor of a landmark high-rise Reval Hotel Lietuva, the SkyBar cocktail bar boasts some of the most beautiful panoramic views of Vilnius, taking in Gediminas Tower, Vilnius Cathedral, the Old Town and the delightful bends of the River Neris. To enjoy a closer look at the Old Town’s wonderful buildings, ask for a pair of binoculars. This is a truly special place where you can experience the most impressive panoramic excursion in Vilnius. Places like this are a rarity in Europe. This is the SkyBar, a place where you can feel warmly welcome, over and over again.
