We loved the ambience, drinks and the service! I had an espresso martini and my friend had a watermelon drink the bartender made up for her. It was a beautiful place to visit before and after dinner. We look forward to coming back again!

Went for the first time and was supper disappointed. Drinks are expensive and they were not great.There was this bartender with blonde hair.. I felt like he didn't want to be there..looked like he was annoyed with my presence. Anywho I proceeded with showing him a pic of a drink ( This pic was on the golden hour page in their Instagram ) and he tells me he doesn't know what drink that is, he then proceeds to tell me to read off the menu. What kind of bar tender does not know the drinks they offer at their bar ?! He then makes me a drink and it was not what I expected. Anywho drinks suck the bar tenders suck but the place is nice!

First off, it was beautiful. I loved the bar area and since it's close to Christmas time, all of the lights looked beautiful. The service was subpar. Except one of the girls who was very friendly. The other one seemed like she didn't really care to be there or talk to us. They also gave us a menu that was outdated so we ordered items that they weren't even selling. They apologized and gave us the correct menu. The drinks were $22 each but tasted like a $10 cocktail from a local bar. I will not be going back.

Golden Hour is located in the Moxi Hotel on level 8 in Downtown LA.The Moxi hotel has a ton of photo opps on the way up to golden hour which is very cool. Once you get to the rooftop it is really beautiful. The chandelier carousel is classy and fun. When its actual golden hour and the sun is setting the views of downtown are breathtaking. Cost of cocktails is $22 and they charge an 18% gratuity on top of it. So you are looking at almost $30 bucks for a cocktail which is steep. However, the cocktails were pretty great. I was a huge fan of night fever and lava colada. Heads up if you have a reservation it is required to spend $100 per person minimum which is wild. Its a bummer as this is the only seating available on the rooftop. So that also means everyone is standing and crowding the bar area which can make it difficult to order drinks on a busy night. Overall, a cute place to visit in the summer time.

We went tonight and there was snow for a total of 5 minutes for the 3 hours that we were there. And there were also no reindeer as advertised in the ig reels. I would say I'm glad we didn't splurge for the igloo or firepits that were expensive and didn't have good or heating. Overall would not recommend for winter hour

Yesterday, I hosted an event at Golden Hour, and it turned out to be a tremendous success! Collaborating with Danica, the Events Manager, was an incredibly positive experience. She offered fantastic recommendations and was exceptionally easy to communicate with.The venue itself is breathtaking. From the stunning pool to the cozy cabanas and the captivating carousel bar, every aspect is simply amazing.The appetizers was exquisite, and I particularly enjoyed how the servers circulated with appetizers, adding to the ambiance.The cocktails were exceptional too! Both the old-fashioned and the Bali Bye Bye were particularly delightful.I wholeheartedly recommend considering Golden Hour for hosting events or simply dropping by for a drink; it's an experience you won't want to miss!

We came here for drinks on a Friday night as we waited for our table to become available at Que Barbaro. This place is simply amazing and has to be one of the most esthetically beautiful rooftop bar in LA and I've been to all of them. We love the entire pool cabana vibe and that pineapple carousel bar is so dope! The bartenders were polite, attentive, and just friendly provided great drink recommendations that were delicious and d well crafted. Our stay here wasn't long but definitely enjoyable and will definitely be back with family and friends!

Very cute spot with good drinks. Super loud and overcrowded though. Worth checking out.

This is one of the bars located at Level 8 in Moxy and it has such a cool ambiance because it's outdoors. At one point when we were outside, there was even a fire dancer. I do think compared to the other bars located on Level 8, this one felt a bit more gimmicky to me. In order to get a table or cabana during a busy night, you may have to satisfy a minimum spend to reserve it.I tried the Everything Whale Be Okay ($20), which was good, but really pricey for a cocktail. You're definitely paying for the atmosphere, but I thought the one here was just okay. It also seems like the pool is never really opened here so it's more for aesthetic than actual use, which is a shame because I think it would be fun during the warmer months!

Absolutely love the ambiance, decor, views, etc of this place! Every single detail is impeccable!!! Tips- check out all the different rooms at Level 8. Another tip- go on a Thursday night before 9pm, to avoid crowds and long waits.
