Chill Out Places
For those of you who want to enjoy a more chilled out night rather than clubbing it away amidst a mass of sweaty people and smoke, there are two places that I’d recommend – C Plus Bar and the Champagne Bar in the Grand Hyatt.
The C Plus Bar is a small, intimate affair that is located just off Wellington Street in Central. It’s hidden away and descending a back-alley to get to it just adds to the mock exclusivity of the place. The decor is dark and subdued, with mellowed out lounge music playing on the places sound system. It’s easy to lose a whole evening there as you escape the usual buzz of Hong Kong. There are only about a dozen or so tables there but the staff always manage to fit in the steady stream of customers on a busy night. There is always the large private room that can house fifteen or so people quite comfortably.
If you’re looking for something more upmarket and more exclusive, try the Champagne Bar at the Grand Hyatt. The old world charm and the live band gives you a taste of living it up and the price tag on most items help you to know that you are. It’s not a place to go and party but it is a definitely somewhere to go where you might want to add a touch of something special to an otherwise normal night out. Seating policy is on a first come, first serve basis. This causes some problems with larger groups and gatherings larger than ten will not work out that well. Best just to go with a group of close friends.
