Be Shaken, Not Stirred With Hotels in Sharm


When most of us think of Sharm el Sheikh we picture white sandy beaches, and diving clubs, taking holidaymakers underwater with the coral reefs of the Red Sea. However, on dry land there are plenty of great bars and hotels in Sharm which can provide you with cocktails to die for, so get your glad rags on and prepare yourself for some fabulous themed cocktails.
Once you emerge from your hotels in Sharm el Sheikh, the first stop should be Soho Square. The hippest spot in the area for nightlife, you can take your pick of great bars and restaurants, clubs and boutiques. There is plenty here to do by day, and even has an ice rink if you’re in the mood for some skating. But it’s the evenings when it really comes alive, and you could spend the whole night just in this area if you wanted to.
The Mandarin is one of the chicest bars in the area. Offering Asian ambiance at its best, this is a very stylish spot to stop for a drink. The interior lighting changes throughout the evening to keep the mood fresh, and speaking of fresh, the food here is delicious. Try some tasty Asian appetisers while you decide which cocktail to try… although The Mandarin is famous for its incredible Mai Tais.
You might want to leave your summer clothing at your Sharm el Sheikh hotels if you plan on heading to the resort’s coolest of bars, the Ice Bar. Similar to its sister bars which can be found in many big cities, the temperature in the bar is set at -5C – cold weather clothing is available on request if required!
Inside, the whole interior is actually made of ice, from the chairs and tables, to the walls and bar. You won’t need any drinks on the rocks as even the glasses are made of ice. The only thing that’s not frozen is the alcohol, so try a shot of something strong to warm you up from the inside out. It’s an invigorating experience.
