    Nous avons passé un agréable moment. Nous avons mangé sur la terrasse en hauteur. Le personnel était extrêmement sympathique et la nourriture un vrai régal. Mon compagnon a décidé de la vue magnifique de la terrasse pour me demander en mariage ! Lorsque le personnel du bar en a été informé ils nous ont offert une coupe de champagne ce qui était encore plus appréciable. Nous vous remercions pour ce moment que vous avez réussi à rendre encore plus joli. Nous ne nous gêneront pas pour donner votre adresse en France.

    Très belle vue mais pas assez de chauffage en extérieur pour boire un verre. Les cocktails sont décevants pour le prix, très sucrés et peu alcoolisés. Les plats Barfood sont trop petits, 2 croquettes de fromages par assiette, c’est exagéré. Les burgers sont très bons mais minuscules. 100€ pour 2 cocktails, 2 mini burgers et 2 croquettes de fromages … un peu trop cher meme pour une belle vue. Service impeccable. Dommage le grand écran dans la salle de restaurant . Rapport qualité-prix décevant.

    Le restaurant n’a pas informé le site que le menu proposé était très réduit pour dîner le 24 décembre. Par conséquent, nous n’avons pas pu manger ce que nous avions sélectionné sur le site alors que c’est le menu qui nous a fait choisir ce restaurant. Très déçus de cette soirée, nous avons écourté et sommes partis avec regrets d’avoir choisi ce restaurant. Cela nous a gâché le réveillon de Noël. Malgré un personnel très gentil. 
    High Note Sky BarResponded 2 days ago
    Dear Magali Thank you for visiting us and for the nice words about our colleagues! I am sorry to read your comment in which you expressed dissatisfaction as regards the dishes, allow me to respond to it. Your reservation was received on December 10th, and we sent you a message on December 10th informing you of which dishes would be available on the day of your visit, attaching a link to our menu, and this message was delivered, as per our system configuration. The decision to offer a limited menu was made, due to the preparation of our Christmas Dinner! I am sorry if you felt like we ruined your Holidays, however, I think we did everything we could to inform you in a timely manner advance. Best regards Csaba Palfi Assistant Director of F&B

    in the beginning, we want to book the restaurant to eat something but we get a place in the bar only! Not at all so fine. Expensive too. Not to recommend.
    High Note Sky BarResponded 2 days ago
    Dear László Thank you for visiting us and Happy Holidays! I regret to read what you wrote regarding the seating and our prices. The High Note Sky Bar is more of a bar than a restaurant, but in line with the needs of our guests in recent years, you can also eat at our Bar. However, since you did not indicate your intention to eat when booking, my colleagues showed you a table that is more suitable for drinking, but you can also easily have Bites there, which was available on the day of your visit, and you have been informed about it. Regarding our prices, we think that considering the quality of the ingredients and the location, they are in line with similar 5-star hotels. Best Regards Csaba Palfi Assistant Director of F&B

    We ordered bar bites (spinach and goat cheese balls and potato pave) and they were so good, we had a second order of each. Our service was prompt, the view was beautiful and the atmosphere was relaxing and engaging. It was a perfect spot for a couple of drinks and good conversation over the holidays. I especially appreciated the holiday cocktail selection that was available.

    The drinks were amazing! I think you have to ask for a dinner menu? Was not given one or asked if I would like one. Overall, everyone was friendly, I was just too nervous to ask for the food menu.
    High Note Sky BarResponded 5 days ago
    Dear Rebecca Thank you for visiting us and I am delighted you were satisfied with our drinks. I am very sorry that you could not have dinner, I do not know what happened, as many of our guests had dinner with us yesterday. Our menu that my colleagues gave you indeed was limited last night due to our Gala dinner, but all dishes were in it, after the drink sections, on the last two pages. Merry Christmas Regards Csaba Pálfi Assistant Director of F&B
