Since this bar was right outside the door of my room, I happen to make several visits. Most of them were very positive.\n\nMost of the bars at the Phoenician will make a good mojito. This place makes the best. It is one of the best mojitos I had in a long time.\n\nThe bar is very nice. Looks like something you would find in San Francisco. Very large marble bar with high bar stools and very nice furnishings and a large out-door area for sitting and relaxing, especially toward dusk.\n\nThe bar also has a fine selection of cigars. I don't think you can smoke there. I did not eat at the bar. They did serve a selection of tasty nuts though.\n\nThe staff was pretty friendly, except for one young guy. I guess he just got hired or something. That guy made a big deal about two of my guest not wearing sleeves? Not like we are in the UAE or Saudi Arabia! Any way, did not make a big deal since my room was next door, but still kind of weird. I know it is a 5-star hotel, but it is summer, the pool is right out the door and they were wearing nice tank-tops. What ever. I still liked the bar.\n\nIf you need to make a choice in hotels, this is the place!
