Live Music Venues
EDITOR'S REVIEW
Long Bar brings more than 100 years of Raffles Singapore's bar culture to an upscale experience at Zorlu Center. Very high ceilings, large artworks and five-star service stand out; Bosphorus Sling, an Istanbul interpretation of the Singapore Sling, is among its signature experiences.
WHO IT SUITS
For people wanting to socialise in a stylish room after work, take a luxury break after shopping at Zorlu or try a Bosphorus Sling. Its striking atmosphere also appeals to couples celebrating a romantic special occasion.
HIGHLIGHTS
Offering Raffles Singapore's cocktail legacy with five-star service is its principal strength. Its central Zorlu location, grand high-ceilinged architecture, artworks, signature cocktails and hotel hospitality also stand out.
NOTE
Prices are at Istanbul's highest end, and a service charge may be added to the bill. As DJs or live acts raise the volume and pace at night, guests wanting a quiet business meeting or calm conversation are advised to visit early.
GETTING THERE
It is on the entrance level of Raffles Istanbul inside Zorlu Center in Levazım Mahallesi. Underground passages connect M2 Gayrettepe and Zincirlikuyu Metrobus directly to the complex. Cars and taxis can reach the main Raffles entrance, where the hotel has secure valet service.
