ESSA Sky Lounge sits on the upper floor of Subic Riviera Hotel and Residences in the Central Business District. It opened with the hotel in November 2023 and serves cocktails and bar food from mid-afternoon into the night. It is the hotel's bar rather than its dining room; the buffet restaurant is downstairs.
