Bar
CÉ LA VI Dubai
A rooftop venue 54 floors up at Address Sky View, combining a modern Asian restaurant, a sky bar and a club lounge with close-up Burj Khalifa…
A sixth-floor bar at the 25hours Hotel One Central with a terrace, DJs and Nikkei-inspired food, popular for after-work drinks near the World Trade Centre.
Good to know
Monkey Bar brings the playful style of the 25hours brand to the sixth floor of its One Central hotel, near the Dubai World Trade Centre. The bar has a terrace looking over the surrounding towers and a menu of Nikkei-inspired dishes, the Japanese-Peruvian fusion that pairs well with cocktails.
It is lively without being a nightclub: DJs set the tone in the evenings, and the crowd mixes hotel guests with people heading out after work in the business district. If you prefer something more casual, the same hotel has ERNST, a Bavarian beer garden, and the Juña rooftop shisha lounge. One Central is a short walk from the World Trade Centre Metro station, which makes it an easy first stop before moving on to Downtown or DIFC.
