Ozone

Cool bar. Outdoor area is amazing. 118^th floor of the Ritz-​Carlton. Food is so so. But, this place is about the ambience. Great place to take a

One of the highest bars in the world at the 118^th floor of the ICC building. Depending on the night, it may be difficult to have a good view of the harbour. Drinks are kind of expensive but worth checking out at least once for the novelty.

I came here last December to experience being on the world’s highest bar. Their interior design is very unique with vibrant colours, trendy furniture and honeycomb designs throughout the place. Very eye-​catching! The best part about this bar is the outdoor terrace, where you can enjoy your drink while looking at the beautiful city lights. I would love to go back again the next time I visit Hong Kong!

Great alternative to The Peak to see an amazing view of Hong Kong. We sat outdoors and we were able to catch the sunset. Lots of drink selection. The service was great. Our mix nuts snack bowl were immediately replaced even though we only got through half of it. Our waiter was attentive. As soon as I was done with my drink, he asked if I would like another. And if it gets cold, don’t worry there are heat lamps.
And do go to the restroom while you’re here! Amazing view right as you walk in!

Ozone was definitely on this list of spots I wanted to go to while I was in Hong Kong and I am super glad that I was able to check it out.
The overall vibe of the place was very cosmopolitan and trendy, I should note that this seems to be a hot spot for tourists or expats so the English proficiency of all the staff is excellent. The view is amazing, as other tellers have mentioned the bar is on the 118^th floor of the Ritz Carlton. I tried the dragontini and rose bubble martini, both of which were very well presented and delicious.

I came here with some girlfriends for a drink while visiting Hong Kong. My friend booked it for us, so I can’t take any credit, but it’s so awesome that it’s one of the highest bars in the world! The bar on the inside is beautiful and, when I saw the Veuve bottles everywhere, I had high expectations. The seating on the edge of the window outside was all taken, which wasn’t surprising, but we stalked some people until they left, so did get a turn sitting there. It’s crazy because you can definitely feel the air and wind since the ceiling is open. I got a glass of Veuve rose, which is one of my favorites. The price is definitely high, but the experience is worth it.

Good view, 95 for beers, and 180 – 300 ish for a drink. Slow service though, even though there wasn’t that many people.
Can’t really enjoy your drink when it takes 10 minutes to get a menu, 20 minutes to get your drink, and 15 minutes to get the check. Unacceptable for such a high end establishment. 10% additional service charge is automatically added, maybe that’s why it’s not efficient.

Nice place to be on the rooftop of the ICC 118^th floors up. BUT service is HORRIBLE!!! Sat down and after a few servers walking pass us 4 – 5 times without asking for our drink order we had to physically flag one down! Mind you this was Sunday evening around 7pm which was a pretty slow time imo… Took them 10mins to bring out nuts then our drinks…
Tried to enjoy our drinks and seeing the waiters walk back n fourth without checking up on us. We decided this was going to be our LAST and ONLY drink. For a fine establishment like the RITZ I expected a higher level of service and looked after more…
BUT even after paying for the bill that still took 8−10mins for us to get back. WHAT THE HECK are the doing here running around looking like a chicken with its head cut off… NO finesse with their service and OVERPRICED drinks. Try another bar somewhere in TST which better service and equally nice of a view!
Disappointed from a world traveler like myself!

They say you should always save the best for last & without even intentionally planning on it, we did save the best for last when our last stop in Hong Kong was to the Ozone Bar at the Ritz Carlton. We walked in & were impressed from the moment we got in to the elevator which is covered in large patches of black leather over mirrored walls; very sleek, stylish, & sexy. When the doors open up, you know that you are somewhere really special. The bar is beautiful & the outdoor patio section gazes out on the most intense views of Hong Kong. We sat down at an empty table in the far right corner & were greeted immediately by a server. Of course, we have expensive taste so we laughed when he said that we sat down at a table which requires a HKD $ 10k minimum hahahah. We snapped a few pics of the view & took a selfie laughing the whole time & went a high top table. I went & ordered drinks at the bar & my guy ordered drinks from the server since we had about 45 minutes to closing; always thinking ahead it seems! I chose the Lychee Martini because it’s one of my favorites & I knew that this would be the place to get one while in Asia. I was so right; it was seriously one of the most delicious Lychee Martinis I have ever had in my life. We were hungry so I asked the bartender if I could still order food & they made an exception because the last call for food had technically happened but I said I would order only appetizers & place the order right now. The bartender was lovely & accommodating & the food was served promptly & it was awesome. I ordered Wagu Beef Sliders that were so juicy & were definitely some of the best I have ever had in my life. I also ordered these little sandwiches with mozzarella & prosciutto on them. I loved them. He loved them. We were quite content & had a really nice time at Ozone Bar. We walked out of the Ritz Carlton laughing & the taxi driver commented on my jovial spirit. Great way to end the last night in Hong Kong!

I’ve thought long and hard on where my 100^th Unilocal review should go to. It has to be an extraodinary, out of this world experience like no other and my favourite place out of all the places I’ve been to on Unilocal.
The honour has been bestowed upon Ozone Bar in the swanky Ritz Carlton, the highest bar in the world.
The Ritz Carlton is the epitome of luxury. You know you are in a different world travelling on a private road (rare in HK) spiralling up towards the hotel complete with an extremely well-​manicured roundabout. I was in awe as I stepped into the lobby and slowly made my way up to Ozone on level 118. Everywhere was grandiose, lavish and extravagant. No expenses spared anywhere.
The views from the bar are astonishing. There is an outdoor section with floor to ceiling glass panes reaching up high and an empty roof. We sat right in front of the glass. The buildings look so tiny and we had fun playing a game of spotting buildings we had driven past, and looking at the boats on Victoria Harbour. The cocktails looked and tasted amazing. Service was attentive and unobtrusive at the same time.
There is also an inside section which is a lot more quiet as you can’t see the views from there. No expenses spared in the fit out either. Full of class, decorated in a modern way.
A must-​do experience if in HK!!!

Ozone is the highest bar in the world, so I naturally had to go there during a visit to Hong Kong.
It takes a bit a patience to snag a seat right up against the windows. But once you get those seats, the view is great. The only problem is that there is glass all around the bar, so pictures of the view don’t turn out very well.
The bar is fancy, but lots of tourists are there in very casual clothing (tshirts, flipflops, etc.)
The prices of drinks are extremely high. One cocktail costs about 25USD. The cocktails we got were fine, but nothing spectacular. You really are just paying for the novelty and the view.
Overall, I would recommend going to Ozone. But just one visit is enough; it is not the type of place that you would want to frequent.

BEST BRUNCH EVER!
Bottomless champagne and they were serving Veuve Clicquot! Needless to say, we got our money’s worth!
BEST view of Hong Kong because it’s at the TOP of the TALLEST BUILDING in Hong Kong!
The brunch food was also fancy, unique, creative and overall MOUTHGASMIC (ie. foie gras lollipops with a thin candy coating… and yes, it works)!
Service was also top notch which was not surprising. The staff were so friendly and eager to serve you!
But all this delight comes with a steep price…$ 150 – 200 per person! As a baller on a budget, trust me, it’s worth it… even if it’s just to do it once!!!
Add this to your MUST DO in Hong Kong!

Worth it for ‘the experience’!
As others have said, the Ozone is part of the Ritz Carlton and sits on floor 118, so drinks with a view so to speak! I was there on a Monday after 10pm so I wasn’t asked to pay a cover charge and I was able to access the terrace. On a good weather day/​night, it would be great for the views across HK but with a typhoon warning out, it was rather windy and not great for anyone with long hair! Took a few photos though then sat in the bar area.
I had a couple of G&T’s, so they were around $ 200 HK each plus 10% service charge. You get a decent size bowl of cashews and almonds and staff will top up happily.
Getting served at the terrace bar took a bit if time then had a bit of a wait to get my drink but much easier second time when in the bar area.
There is a Sky100 thing you can do in the same building but I’d say skip doing that (which you pay for) and come up to the Ozone and order a drink and catch the view from floor 118. I can’t imagine I’ll do this every time I’d come to HK but if I was with friends or colleagues on their first visit, I’d bring them here.

Located at the top of the Ritz Carlton in the tallest building in Hong Kong, Ozone is the world’s highest bar. That credential alone should make it well worth anyone’s while to visit, and I’d recommend stopping in for at least a drink if you’re ever anywhere nearby.
The place isn’t bad, either. It’s expensive, but not unjustifiably so, given its tourist appeal and stunning views. I went with my family on a Tuesday night, which was a) probably not the busiest night b) the perfect night for us to go. There were seven of us, and we were able to get some lounge space straight away. We wandered around the bar and checked out the gorgeous views of Hong Kong from the outside deck. The inside of the bar was also visually appealing in a weird, clubby way. It was clear that a lot of money was put into the bar’s design, which featured a lot of glowing white furniture and a prevalent design motif that reminded me of the cell structure diagrams I studied in middle school. Even the elevator had this pattern printed in leather plates on its walls.
Service was good and quick. We got complimentary cashews and almonds to munch on and ordered a round of cocktails – this was all we could handle before the jet lag knocked us out. I got the Lady Thyme, a drink made with Michter’s rye, white peach, thyme, and orange bitters. The flavors were kind of muddled in a way that tilted medicinal, but it wasn’t terrible. The Woodland was in a similar vein, with Woodford Reserve, lemon peel, rosemary, and cardamom bitters. It was strong and unbalanced. I feel like Ozone should probably figure out how to make good whiskey cocktails, but maybe it just isn’t that kind of place. Honestly, the best drink on our table was the bright pink Dragontini, a vodka cocktail with raspberry liqueur, raspberry, yuzu, basil foam, and a big wedge of dragonfruit garnish. It was sweet and tasty, but I don’t think a drink called a Dragontini should be the best cocktail at a bar this lavishly expensive. The Thai Spritz was tolerable, too, a cocktail of chili-​infused tequila with strawberry, prosecco, and lemongrass. Points for effort all across the board, I guess.
I was glad we checked out Ozone, but didn’t want to stay any longer than we did. The view was great, and the drinks were okay, but it didn’t seem like the kind of place I’d want to linger all night. I’d probably come back for more of the same if I make it back to Hong Kong. It’s not a perfect spot, but it’s certainly worth a visit.

Be prepared to spend some major moola once you walk into this place. And if you want a table in their balcony area? It will be anywhere between $ 5,000 — 10,000 minimum.
This is probably not the place where you’d go on a regular evening to have drinks with your friends though it will score you some brownie points with out of town friends (or a gorgeous date, which I’m guilty of). Be prepared to spend upwards of $ 200+ for a cocktail. Even their most simple beers will set you back a good $ 100 or so. But remember, you are paying for the experience of «drinking at the world’s highest bar.»
If you are simple visiting HK as a tourist, I highly suggest skipping out on Sky100 and just spending your $ 100 or so on a beer here as you’ll get much better value for your money (and be on a higher level of the building). I used to live next door at The Arch, so I’m not too much of a sucker for this skyline view but love bringing first timers here.
Do keep your fingers crossed that it is a clear night. Either it is cloudy/​smoggy or it is clear, so lets hope for the latter.

See and be seen with high prices at this high bar
The view is beautiful and I’m not talking about the skyline. Dress to impress here on f118. Make your way outside and grab an expensive drink, even for HK prices. But it’s all just the price of admission to check in on Unilocal.Right? Trust me, it’s worth it. There was no cover when we arrived late on a Sunday night to a, standing room only bar scene.
The patio is chill with heaters a s needed and hopefully it’s a relatively clear night so you can see the lights of the city. The pollution has a tendency to cloud your view. Inside the lounge it’s louded and crowded with most areas reserved but some open seating. The décor is cool in a modern, pattern, pattern everywhere look.
It’s worth a trip to the top for a drink then it’s back down to the ground for reasonable prices and HK shenanigans.

Ozone at the Ritz-​Carlton purports to be the highest bar IN THE WORLD! How could I not check it out?
On the Saturday night I was there, there was some kind of event going and so they were trying to charge me a $ 300HKD ($ 40) cover. Ew, what? Do they not know who I am? They quickly changed their minds and comped my admission when they saw I was flying solo, and I was going to walk away if I had to pay. Much better.
Once inside, I was severely disappointed. I wanted to check out Ozone for their panoramic view of Hong Kong’s skyline, but the visibility at the top was ZERO. It was raining earlier in the day, but even though the weather seemed to be clear on the ground floor, the rooftop was still cloudy as ever. That top dollar view was completely null.
Even still, I stayed for a drink. The Vanilla Sky (Bourbon Whiskey, Talisker 10, Vanilla & Pear) seemed to be a popular (and expensive) cocktail. What I received was a half full glass that tasted 100% like vanilla and not much else. At least it was strong, and came with a bowl of almonds!
The crowd was all foreigners or rich mainlanders. Music was some strange house/​electronic mix. No one was dancing… and so I left shortly after arriving.

This is a must visit place in Hong Kong! Located on the 118^th floor of Ritz Carlton in Kowloon, Ozone Bar boasts a beautiful panoramic view of Hong Kong. Although Ozone Bar claims to be the highest bar in the world, CN Tower’s bar is actually higher but I’m giving 5 stars anyways because I really love this place!!! Ozone Bar scores high on super slick décor, I love the tasteful futuristic architecture design and the use of color lighting which create an über hip atmosphere. The drinks are supposedly overpriced but my co-​worker paid for it so I have no idea how expensive they are. The music is not so loud so you can still have a nice conversation while enjoying the bird’s eye view of the city. Highly recommended!

It’s Friday so it’s fitting to do a writeup/​review about a bar.
This bar is special because it’s one of the highest bars in the world (118/​F), and probably one of the most expensive drinks in the world too.
It’s so high that if you go up during the daytime (they open on Sundays for brunch I believe), you can look down on helicopters.
But it’s definitely worth coming just for the views and atmosphere.
If the weather is good (meaning clear visibility and no low hanging clouds), be prepared to come early if you want a spot near the window.
For a rough guide, a beer will set you back $ 100 (10 times the price of a beer elsewhere in Hong Kong, or $ 12 USD), and a cocktail will set you back about $ 200 (or roughly $ 25 USD). So bring money (or maybe credit card. It’s safe to say that all cards are accepted).
Still a beer at this place is probably more value for money than the Sky100 observatory deck which is about $ 100 as well and is only on 100/​F of the same building. Although this place isn’t exactly family friendly.

Alright, my friends recommended the ICC Building for lovely views of Hong Kong. They failed to mention the awesome bar atop the Ritz Carlton. It’s pretty awesome.
Let’s just start off by saying that you are paying for atmosphere, if you are even paying at all. If you took the Sky100, you’d be paying around HKD 168 for a standard ticket. Why do that when you can pay for the view AND get a fine cocktail on the 118^th Floor?
If you don’t drink, pretty sure you can waltz in like you belong to take in the views in the outdoor area of the bar FOR FREE. If you do decide to drink, then my fine reader, continue on.
Drinks here are pricey, but they do give you a massive amount of cashews. I love cashews and they probably gave me about $ 5 USD worth of cashews, which I greedily devoured like a hungry squirrel preparing for winter.
Drink strength was ok, even as I pestered the bartender not to make it so girly. I was ordering a Champagne Mojito though, so… yeah. It was a bit sour and he offered to make it sweeter, but that just ruins everything, so I was like forget it. If you can’t give me the taste of alcohol, just leave it.
Boyfriend’s Vanilla Sky was what I should have gotten as it was quite strong and came with a proper huge ice block. They premake everything else and store it in a flask and pour it after the bourbon.
It is interesting to note that they are fresh about their ingredients as we saw them chopping everything up when time permitted. Not sure how long those last until though!
Was it worth it?
Yes, if you like crafted cocktails with a breathtaking view (for a price, obviously). The inside bar area, restrooms and escalators in and out of this place are AMAZINGLY decorated. NO JOKE. It lives up to its Ritz Carlton name.
How do I get there?
From the main lobby of the hotel, note that there is a separate elevator labelled «OZONE». You really can’t miss it.
From the mall, you take two escalators up, one elevator for the lobby, then another to Ozone.
Enjoy!
