Buddha-Bar

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

The phrase ‘go big or go home’ is made incarnate at this dramatic hot spot comprising three drinking haunts set within the Grosvenor House hotel on Dubai Marina. Full-width floor-to-ceiling windows draw in the cityscape beyond, and, at the centre of the space is a monolithic gilded statue overseeing the comings and going. A wave-like bar slinks alongside, meanwhile, overlooking the scene upstairs, the Dragon Bar lounge is bedecked with gold accents and other opulent Asian-leaning design tropes. The exotic cocktail list takes a similar approach, with monikers like Midnight in Toyko, Elixir of the Samurai and Geisha’s Gimlet leading the charge along with a wine list and Asian beers. Pick you poison, sit back and enjoy the kind of soundtrack that defined a generation, or head outside to the Siddharta Lounge and grab a perch by the pool, either way you’re winning.
