The best lounge bars Route de la soie

This is the Radisson Blu Hotel bar. It is located on the right of the entrance, inside, where you expect comfortable red armchairs. There are good cocktails (including a famous mojito), an aperitif, a digestive, a soft drink or a hot drink, but you can also eat it from until. On the menu, soup of the day, sandwiches, salads, pasta, and even hot dishes (chicken tajines, beef fillet…). Unless you prefer to drink a cup of champagne with a small dessert…

Sepia occupies the first floor of an ancient Lebanese house located at the foot of the stairs Saint-Nicolas in Gemmayzé. The decoration is impressive and refined. You can enjoy a drink and eat around an imposing counter that occupies the centre of the room.

A pretty establishment with softened lights where you come to dine with your family or have a drink with friends in the first part of the evening. Cuisine with a fusion food spirit with a strong Central Asian and Middle Eastern inspiration, cocktails, large choice of alcohol. Also some vegetarian dishes. The atmosphere is calm, lulled by jazz or sou beats, but sometimes the atmosphere comes alive with the more frenetic rhythms of techno music on some nights. If you're not in the mood for dancing, then you can migrate to the pleasant terrace.

Elegant, modern but unpretentious, this trendy bar is located in an extraordinary square, piazza di Pietra, just opposite Hadrian's temple. From the terrace, the setting is enchanting! Salotto 42 is run by an Italian-Swedish couple. The decor features soft armchairs and sofas in a private club atmosphere, and the small terrace is just as pleasant. The aperitif from 7pm to 9pm is very popular with young Romans, and the cocktails are excellent. A trendy address for a drink in central Rome.

Situated in the historic district, a little north of the central Vartanants square, you can't miss it, with its large umbrellas on the terrace, in the shade of which you can enjoy excellent cocktails and other drinks, alcoholic or not, hot or cold, and also local specialities, in a snack style, but in luxury. The spacious and comfortable interior is resolutely lounge-like, with music and subdued lighting. A very popular address in Gyumri.

A bar on the top floor of a building at the beginning of Abovian Street, which already has a lot of bars; enough to move from one to the other by changing floors. In a modern and refined decor, a menu of some nicely presented continental specialities and above all a wide range of drinks and cocktails, with the barmen providing the show against a musical backdrop, guaranteed in the Paparazzi club below. But the "Verev" (from above in Armenian) is especially worth a visit for its rooftop, one of the most popular in Yerevan, with a breathtaking view of Republic Square by night
