Best kept secret in Sydney. The Globe Bar has the old school makings of a scaled down version of The Oak Bar at The Plaza. Wood panelling, high backed leather seats, waiters carrying starched white linen on their arms. I LOVE IT. The De La Citie cocktail is lychee perfection and has been the liquid soundtrack to many a fuzzy evening in this bar. They have a piano player on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings when the mood is subdued, chatter discreet but this bar has more charm than any other 'hotel' bar I've ever been in. To call it a hotel bar would be an insult. It's an excuse to snuggle up close and extend your pinkie finger. Try not to spill it!
Afternoon tea is served here from 2.30pm to 5.00pm weekdays and from 1.30pm to 4.30pm at weekends. It's elegant, beautiful and very popular for it. You can even have your tea leaves read. Mine would say 'come back soon'. read more
