A celebration of The St. Regis brand’s signature style, showcasing gilded-age-inspired designs and historical murals in every direction, you will immediately fall under the spell of this iconic establishment from the moment you step into The Library. The first room of The St. Regis Bar’s three individual areas, it is here where you are greeted with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, elegant furnishings, soft lighting and a fireplace.
Continuing the journey to the heart of the bar, the second room presents a dazzling display of mixology against the backdrop of majestic artworks, depicting the Arabic sporting contests of camel and horse racing. Paying homage to Abu Dhabi’s Bedouin history and rich cultural heritage, these stunning artworks took nearly six months to complete, illustrating the attention to detail that the venue exudes. Behind the bar is the third and final room, The Cigar Lounge. Wrapping patrons up in a cozy and warm ambience, take your pick from a collection of Arturo Fuente cigars. Time the visit right and attend the beloved Gentlemen’s Toast monthly experience and savour a limited-edition cigar paired with a fragrant whisky.
