Ozone Bar - the highest bar in Asia!


This is not somewhere to go if you're afraid of heights! You need to take three lifts to get to the Ozone Bar, which is situated on the 118th floor of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Kowloon, Hong Kong. It has a classy yet relaxed feel to it; soft music is playing whilst the staff mix drinks and deliver them to your table with a smile. 


At the foot of the Ritz-Carlton hotel
Incredibly there is an outdoor section. There are thick glass windows stopping anyone or anything from tumbling below, but as you sit there gazing out over the view you can feel the breeze on your face as there is no roof.

The density of Kowloon
Although many posh places in Hong Kong have a dress code (which can range from 'no beachwear' to 'no open-toe shoes' and 'no sleeveless shirts for men'), I have been to the Ozone Bar twice and the dress code doesn't seem to be too strict. Both times I have been wearing open-toe shoes. I obviously just look the part!   


Mixing it up!

 No great surprise that drinking here is not cheap, but it's not extortionate either. All the people I've been with have agreed that it's not much more expensive than drinking in London. And it's worth the little bit extra for the amazing view!
