The Palace Bar

Give free rein to your thoughts as you indulge in some serious relaxation: built in 1905, the Palace Bar is the best place for this. The semi-circular panorama building with the huge sash windows breathes history: contracts were once negotiated here, political goals defined and records set. And something grand and unspoken still resonates when you sink into an armchair, listen to the crackling fire, follow the meandering melody of the pianist and the recommendations of the barman – and take a little more time for yourself than usual.
