The visit to Blank Sky Lounge at Landmark 81 was one of the highlights of our stay in Ho Chi Minh City. Even the way up feels special, and once you arrive, you immediately understand why this place is so popular. The view over the city is truly impressive, especially around sunset and later in the evening when the skyline, the river, and the bridges are illuminated. Depending on your table, you get a fantastic panoramic view over Saigon. The bar itself is stylish and upscale without feeling too formal. One thing I really liked is that the venue is spread across two levels, so you get different areas and perspectives. There is an elegant indoor lounge atmosphere as well as an outdoor rooftop area, which is especially popular for photos and for enjoying the skyline. The drinks were excellent. The Tequila Sour especially stood out: fresh, well-balanced, not too sweet, and professionally mixed. The other drinks we tried were also very tasty and beautifully presented. It is clear that this place does not rely only on the view — the quality of the cocktails is strong as well. Getting there is a little less straightforward than just taking one elevator, so it helps to know the route in advance. The best option is to take a Grab or taxi directly to the entrance of the Vinpearl Landmark 81 – Autograph Collection Hotel. Once inside, go to the Blank Lounge hostess desk, which is on the left-hand side when you enter. The hostess will help activate the elevator for you. First, you take the elevator to the 48th floor. Once you arrive on the 48th floor, turn right and switch to another elevator area located directly opposite the reception. On the elevator tablet, select “75F – Blank Sky Lounge,” then go to the elevator assigned by the system. This will take you up to the lounge. One important point: I would definitely recommend making a reservation. Blank Sky Lounge is very popular, and without a reservation there can be long waiting times, especially around sunset and in the evening. If you want a good table with a view, planning ahead is worth it. Overall, this is a clear recommendation for anyone looking for a special evening in Ho Chi Minh City. The combination of spectacular views, stylish atmosphere, delicious drinks, and an exclusive location makes Blank Sky Lounge at Landmark 81 absolutely worth visiting. It is not necessarily cheap, but for the overall experience, it is definitely worth it.

The panoramic view here is absolutely stunning! The drinks are quite delicious and well-balanced, and the presentation is eye-catching. Sitting here enjoying the view while sipping your drink is incredibly relaxing. But remember to make a reservation in advance to get the best view, as it usually gets quite crowded on holidays.

We came on an afternoon, they already warn that it‘s really hot at that time. We sat by the window. The drink was well made, really tasty. I ordered the popcorn milk tea and my boyfriend ordered a gin tonic (song Cai gin). Both taste really good. We were waiting for subset but unfortunately it was too dusty to catch.

Almost an amazing experience. The view is undeniably majestic, and the drinks are solid too. Still, it could have been much better. First, the service. Some staff are friendly & supportive, but some others should improve their manners and the way they communicate with guests, considering the venue’s premium price range & customer targets. Second, reservations. I highly recommend booking in advance if you want the best seats. They don’t accept same-day reservations, and it gets very crowded, particularly on weekends. I would still come back for the view alone. Such an unique perspective over the city. Hopefully the experience will be even better next time 🌃🍸
