Kelly Watson Review of KU DÉ TA Singapore

I first went to the skybar in 2013 and enjoyed it, only had one cocktail around dusk, but was fine and the view and ambiance was fantastic. I returned March 2019 and was a completely different experience. They advertise at the line that it is $22 to head up and you get a standard drink. Yet it's then said to be $28 and they tell you after waiting in line that this is because it's after 10pm. It was 11:30pm, so they could update their digital sign they are standing next to.
Once up there, the skybar and lounge were like nightclubs, and expected at least one would still feel like a nice bar and not a Justin Bierber type video clip with young women parading wine bottles with sparklers to get old men or rich arrogant ones to buy. It was very obvious they focus on tourists and not returning customers, as no one would return. The so called voucher drink was watered down, and was obvious when the barmen directed us to a different barmen to obtain once he saw the voucher. I chose not to trust any drink after that. I then went to the lounge and chose to order a gin on the rocks as would taste if it was watered down, and yep, it was. At $28 and watered down is a joke, and illegal I believe. I gave up and left then.
It's a fantastic view, but you can't access the outside observation deck. The lounge is also a beautiful venue, but the staff and service, not to mention the cheapness of management actually telling them to water down drinks is horrendous. That's simply a cheap place trying to look classy and you are better off going somehwere else. It's horrendously over priced and you still get a diluted drink. Another rich person going cheap is managing this place for sure.
