Upscale Cocktail Bar and Aperitivo in Shaghai

Sharing the 47th floor with Il Ristorante–Niko Romito, The Bulgari Bar shimmers like a jewel against the panoramic backdrop of the Bund riverfront and Pudong skyline. The Bulgari Bar’s centrepiece oval counter, inspired by Rome’s famed Fontana della Barcaccia, has become an icon of the Bulgari Hotels collection and is reimagined in each property with different materials.

For Shanghai, the bar was made from hand-hammered bronze topped with mirrored steel, recalling the expert craftsmanship of the Roman jeweller. Its water-like texture references Suhe Creek visible through the windows. Before or after dinner, guests can repose in style courtesy of sleek chrome and black leather furnishings. An even more dramatic panorama awaits on the private outdoor terrace, celebrating sumptuous Shanghai views in the open air.

The Bulgari Bar’s menu mixes classic Italian cocktails, fine wines, teas and snacks throughout the day and night. The Bulgari Aperitivo, made famous by the Milan property, is one of the most cherished Italian traditions and a unique experience to try at The Bulgari Hotel Shanghai. At sunset hours, every drink ordered is paired with fresh canapés, enjoyed either at the oval bar or on the outdoor terrace overlooking the river.
