The steady construction of new tower blocks in Sandton's business district has meant that the panoramic view is not as impressive as it once was, but that doesn't detract from this being the biggest and most elaborate rooftop bar in Joburg. Fire pits, hanging chairs, sofas and a dining area are joined by dozens of trees, sun loungers and even a small swimming pool atop the five-star Sandton Sun Hotel.
