The views from the rooftop bar are some of the best you will find in the city. Drinks are a little more pricey than average but worth it for the wonderful sophisticated location.

This is actually a Hotel but downstairs in their basement they have a beautiful romantic wine bar. Lots of little rooms to cosy up in and an excellent choice of wines. A local secret ;)
