bars (2)

There is an amazing, high-ceilinged bar called The Establishment on George Street, where Sydney’s stockbrokers hang out. It has massive cast-iron pillars and a 42-metre white marble bar. This is a bit on the big size, so if you want a more intimate feel, head upstairs to The Hemmesphere. It’s pricier, but is there’s much more lounging going on.Sydney

For a place to stay, Shangri-la draws the suited and booted but is also the hang-out for beautiful people. The Horizon Club makes doing business in the city painless. It serves canapés in the lounge every evening, there’s wireless broadband throughout and they also have a suit-pressing service when you arrive, so you can turn up to your first meeting looking crisp and sharp. sydney
