Visiting the rooftop of Gigi Rigolatto at the Orient Express is truly a memorable experience, especially for those who cherish panoramic city views combined with quality dining. From my time there, what stood out most was the blend of chic ambiance and the lively yet relaxed "be seen" energy that perfectly suits both casual lunches and evening drinks. The rooftop is divided into two appealing spaces: a smaller indoor section that can open up to fresh air and a much larger outdoor terrace adorned with umbrellas. Although the outdoor area was closed during my visit, it was clear that it would be ideal to enjoy on a warm spring or summer day when the weather cooperates. The sweeping views of iconic landmarks like the Pantheon and Vittoriano add a magnificent backdrop that elevates any meal or cocktail session. Reservations can be challenging, especially on weekends, given the venue’s popularity, which is understandable considering its affiliation with the prestigious Gigi Group. This group, which has roots in Saint Tropez and branches out to Paris and Dubai, ensures high standards of service and atmosphere. For anyone wanting to explore the rooftop scene in Rome, this spot belongs on your list not just for its views but also for its unique vibe. The full terrace allows guests to soak in the energetic cityscape, the crowd, and the stylish ambiance that makes Rome’s rooftop bars something special. If you plan to visit, I recommend timing your visit to a sunny day and making a reservation in advance. Also, explore other rooftop venues through interactive local guides to enhance your Roman rooftop experience. It’s a fantastic way to discover new favorites and enjoy some of the best views Rome has to offer.
