Dubai’s Best Hotel Bars

"Refined, snug and intimate, Bitter Honey is every bit as alluring as it sounds. It’s a cosy, grown-up and sophisticated kind of place, where sumptuous furnishings and high-end finishings belie the playfulness of the cocktail menu. Every drink is an alchemy of quirky concoctions, with botanical bitters and local honey swirled in for good measure. There’s the whimsically named The Bees Knees or Wicked Beehaviour, then the mysterious-sounding whisky-based Penicillin and Airmail, which mixes rum with brut champagne. There’s also a dash of theatre, with tableside trolleys where cocktails are made to your liking while the bartenders recount the stories behind their creations." - Katy Gillett
