BUDDHA-BAR MANILA



The Buddha-Bar Manila: One stylish experience that never wavers

There are hot spots that never go out of style. Count the Buddha-Bar Manila on that list, which is part of a Paris-based international franchise that has attracted a formidable celebrity clientele that includes Heidi Klum, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady Gaga, Paris Hilton, and Eva Mendes.

But then again, Buddha-Bar Manila’s appeal goes beyond its rich heritage and celebrity following.

At the threshold, Buddha-Bar Manila will engulf you with its sheer massiveness. Get past its astounding, sprawling size, and you’ll no doubt be captivated by the exotic, relaxing vibe that it provides.

The design of the bar, from the oriental décor to the gigantic Buddha – the place’s focal point – in the middle of the room was carefully outlined and conceived by Paris designers to make sure that it stays true to the brand’s posh reputation and proud lifestyle heritage.

Drinking, dining, and dancing are at its most scintillating at the Buddha-Bar Manila which makes it, in a manner of speaking, a one-stop hideaway right in the heart of the country’s central business district that is Makati. Utterly world-class, this bar-lounge-and-restaurant all in one is a must-visit and should-frequent place for those who seek an air of mystique while enjoying a daytime interlude or a night-out to the hilt.
