About The Observatory
Bottle service and VIP booths are the anchor here, and at a $$ band they're within reach of a group that arrives early rather than a table-only crowd — worth booking if you want a fixed base on a Saturday, when the room runs from midnight through to 6am. The music sits firmly in electronic territory: trance and techno at the harder end of the night, tech house and deep house through the middle, chilled lounge house in the earlier hours after the 4pm open. Wednesday and Thursday close at midnight, so the long nights are Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The crowd skews Western European and touristic, mostly 25 to 45, with 18 the legal drinking age. Smart casual is enough. Food is available and unfussy. The address, 85 Cách Mạng Tháng Tám, puts it on the Phạm Ngũ Lão side of District 1, walkable from Bến Thành.
