About Stratus Rooftop Lounge
Eleven floors above Chestnut Street, the space pairs an indoor lounge of dark sofas and a long backlit bar under glowing globe lights with an open deck where a linear fire feature runs the length of the seating. It only opens Thursday through Saturday: Thursday from 5pm to midnight, Friday from 5pm to 2am and Saturday from 8pm to 2am, so the night matters more here than the sunset. Google pegs drinks at $20–30, and sections come with bottle minimums; one group was quoted $325 for a bottle that reached $450 once tax and gratuity were added. The music runs loud enough that conversation suffers, and a few door complaints appear among the reviews, including one about a refused foreign ID. Regulars praise named bartenders and the cocktails, and the Google average sits at 3.9 from about 640 reviews. Valet parking is available at the hotel.
