Sorry for the confusion! No, there isn't a cover charge at any of the rooftop venues, but all are subject to capacity control. I meant to say food and libations to be comped. Once you are directly invited by a manager, you are escorted to the top as a VIP in an exclusive elevator, hobnob with property managers and other VIPs, and no tab presented at end of the night. Ask nicely and with a big smile! I know about this because I was invited with my family to spend an evening at this MMQP rooftop venue. This venue (even though they had a DJ when I visited) is more laid back, relaxing, and exclusive. At Soi 57, you can find every Tom, Dick and Harry hanging around the sky bar with their cameras/cell phone waiting for the sunset!

Both the lounge and Cafe 57 breakfast are great especially the lobby floor Cafe which ranks 3rd quality-wise on my breakfast best list for Marriott properties. The SGS is just as formidable and ties at # 3 best breakfast.

Yes, the M-Club and the M-Suite at the MMQP.
