New york bar

It no longer needs an introduction: the views from this bar have been seen around the world thanks to the movie "Lost in Translation". The New York Bar, perched on the 52nd floor of the Park Hyatt Hotel, has become a must-visit, but it's totally justified as it offers a fantastic view of the capital in an ultra sophisticated setting, where live musicians will make you forget the passing of time.
