To Lounge and To Love

A curated list of a few handpicked nightclubs around the world for unlimited revelry.

TOYROOM, Mumbai:

Brought to India by Ashish and Shikha Begwani along with hospitality entrepreneur Akshay Anand, the Mumbai edition is the latest addition to the global nightlife brand Toyroom. The team behind the first outpost in New Delhi, along with Prasan Chawla and Rajveer Dhody, have brought the signature high-energy bar experience that seamlessly progresses into a hip nightclub as night sets in to the Grand Hyatt Mumbai Hotel and Residences. The interiors of Toyroom, Mumbai, are sensuous yet fun and quirky. Meander through the narrow passage leading to the main hall, which is an L-shaped space with a huge curvilinear island bar with Frank – the Toyroom mascot on the entire bar front, which has approximately 2,000 teddy bears stuffed in it. Toyroom has internationally positioned itself as an exciting hotspot known for placing children’s toys in an entertaining setting for adults, bringing out the contrast of ‘innocence’ and ‘naughtiness’.

AIR FRANCE’S LA PREMIÈRE:

Head to this first-class cabin promising one of the “most fashionable flying experiences” in the world. The airline’s refurbished flagship first-class lounge offers a stunning cocktail bar. To add to it, the semi-private relaxation areas and the enthralling artwork are all geared to provide the best of chic and charm. Fliers can also indulge in gourmet spreads at this world-renowned airport lounge.

SKY BAR BY SEEN, Lisbon:

Offering the best of both worlds with the city of Lisbon on the left, and its coloured rooftops and the Castelo de Sao Jorge, and the River Tagus on the right, the Sky Bar is atop the stairs on the ninth floor, before you descend to the terrace. Offering an offbeat experience, this charming spot offers comfy sofas and a dazzling dance floor in the central bar area. Trust the rotating lineup of guest DJs to stir diverse notes of music. This spot is famous for its signature cocktails like the Red Line (cherry liqueur, lime juice, mint tea and egg white) and Make a Wish (rum, white port, lemon juice and egg white).

HAVANA CLUB AT THE EMIRATES PALACE HOTEL, Abu Dhabi:

This indulgent haunt is one of the Middle East’s top retreats for cigar lovers. Located in the luxurious Emirates Palace Hotel, the Havana Club offers members their own cigar storage facility on-site, as well as private rooms and an outstanding selection of tipples behind the bar. On offer is a rare range of cigars. An opulent yet modern beauty, this harkens back to the spirit of old Havana. Give in to the calm of the pleasing music to make the best of the vibe.
