An aperitivo or something from the kitchen
The bar publishes separate Shooting Stars, mocktail, classic-cocktail and food menus. Examples include the Sky Spritz at €26 and the Moonshine, made with a 0.0% aperitivo, at €23. These are individual drinks, rather than a package or full-meal budget. Cielo Restaurant is a separate dining offer at the hotel.

Arrive with time for a walk-in table
Current bar hours are daily 12:00-midnight. Cielo explicitly operates first come, first served and does not accept reservations; an enquiry or hotel-restaurant booking does not secure a bar table. The central Spanish Steps setting suits an aperitivo with flexible timing, while the actual weather and available seating determine the visit.
Dress and direct enquiries
The hotel says it has no formal dress code but recommends smart casual and asks guests to avoid sportswear, shorts and beach shoes. The bar contact is +39 06 97793716 or cielo.delaville@roccofortehotels.com. Use this contact for current service arrangements, rather than treating the hotel’s room-reservations form as a bar booking.
