Tucked away in an inconspicuous corner of the main lobby, this bar is inspired by vivacious Hungarian actress Zsa Zsa Gabor. Her stylish but flamboyant reputation becomes apparent as you step through the boldly patterned screen doorway and on to the brightly lit monochrome runway-style floor. It's a great spot for an aperitif or two.

On the menu you’ll find a huge range of cigars, and a humidor sits inside a secluded cigar lounge to the rear. It's popular with cigar smokers and cocktail aficionados, but contrary to the nature of Zsa Zsa herself, the bar remains a relatively low-key spot, aside from lively Thursday evenings, before and after dinner.
