Seda Central Bloc Pool Bar

IT Park, Cebu

Seda Central Bloc Pool Bar is a hotel rooftop pool bar at the Seda Central Bloc Cebu hotel, with cocktails, snacks, and views over IT Park. The format runs as a polished hotel pool bar that's open to non-guests; the space holds about 80 across the pool deck, the covered cocktail bar, and small loungers. Drink prices sit at the upper IT Park tier (matching the hotel positioning); the food menu runs poolside-bar-appropriate dishes. The crowd is mixed Seda guests and walk-in visitors; the format is calmer than the street-level IT Park bars. The pool access requires the typical hotel minimum spend or day-pass.

Insider Tip

Non-guests can use the pool bar without the day-pass; the day-pass adds pool access. The cocktail menu is the standard hotel tier; nothing surprising but execution is reliable. Cards for tabs.

Full Review

The Seda Central Bloc Pool Bar sits on the rooftop of the Seda Central Bloc Cebu hotel, accessible via the hotel's elevators. The space opens onto a pool deck with sun loungers and umbrellas, a covered cocktail bar with seating, and a small dining section. The format runs as a polished hotel pool bar with service standards matching the hotel's mid-tier positioning.

The pool is the venue's primary daytime draw. Hotel guests use it freely; non-guests can purchase a day-pass that includes pool access, towels, and a minimum spend at the bar. The day-pass cost (1,500-2,500 PHP) limits the casual walk-in traffic but works well for visitors planning a full afternoon at the pool.

The cocktail program runs at the standard hotel pool bar level. The classics are executed properly; tropical cocktails (mojitos, piña coladas, mai tais) are the typical orders; the menu includes a few signature drinks with Filipino ingredients. The wine list is competent; the beer selection covers Filipino domestic and imports.

The food menu handles poolside-bar fare: salads, sandwiches, grilled meats, and a few Filipino dishes. The kitchen runs as a hotel bar operation; portions are appropriate for poolside dining; prices match the upper IT Park tier.

The drink prices sit at the upper IT Park tier. Cocktails at 350-500 PHP; beer at 180-300 PHP. The pricing reflects the hotel positioning and the polished service.

The crowd is mixed Seda guests and walk-in visitors. Hotel guests dominate the daytime pool traffic; walk-in cocktail visitors fill in during evening hours. The format is markedly calmer than the surrounding street-level IT Park bars; the elevation, the pool, and the hotel context all contribute.

Compared with Straight Up Sky Bar (rooftop with city views and DJ sets), the Seda Pool Bar is more daytime-focused, calmer, and more hotel-integrated. For visitors staying at Seda or wanting a quieter pool-focused evening, this is the natural choice.
