The Bar/Lounge at Andaz San Diego

"The city's largest rooftop lounge offers a pool, stellar downtown views, eats and drinks, comfy day beds, and private cabanas; on weekend nights the area morphs into RoofTop600, a high-energy, DJ-driven party scene with bottle service"

"Some minibar items are also available for no additional fee, and the rooftop area, with a pool, fire pit, and loungers, is a nice place to hang out"

"The trendy steak-house chain, STK, runs both the restaurant off the lobby and the sleek rooftop area that has a bar, small pool, cabanas, and views of Petco Park"

"Andaz’s nightlife scene is a hot ticket in the Gaslamp Quarter, with the crowd gathering to watch the city lights (and one another) at the Rooftop bar"

"Rather than being greeted with a line and a check-in desk, you’ll take a seat in the lounge, get all the information you need from a host, and receive a complimentary drink"

"Its soaring lobby is a please-touch welcome of buttery leather–covered columns, an edgy wall-length mural and mod loungers, all presided over by a Vogue-worthy staff"

"It is the spitting image of the glamorous rooftop pool bar at Downtown LA's Standard Hotel (not the one on Sunset Blvd): outrageous lounge furniture, a proliferation of art and sculpture, scantily clad models and muscle-boys, expensive and free-flowing booze, exclusive cabanas and views to die for"

"Other hotel highlights inlcude three dining venues, including an ultra-cool rooftop lounge with retractable ceiling, an elegant wine bar with on-tap vinos and sushi haute spot Katsuysa"
