Jimmy Woo likes extravagance but also appreciates privacy. Both aspects are reflected in the design and the bar layout. Gold leaf, black lacquer walls, Japanese lanterns and a genuine antique opium bed remind one of the closing moments of Once Upon a Time in America. Jimmy Woo offers the state-of-the-art in twenty-first century entertainment, with the very best sound system imported from London and a fascinating illuminated ceiling, revealing more than twelve thousand tiny light bulbs.

The décor of Jimmy Woo exists of authentic Asian and modern western elements, using chic and sexy materials such as leather, booklet gold, silk and other unique fabrics exclusively designed for his taste. Jimmy Woo’s choice of these oriental antique furniture pieces date as far back as the 18th century.

This includes antique lamps, tables and an authentic original opium bed which is of set by modern elements including soft lights emanating from the floor. The chic lounge upstairs is where Jimmy greets his guests. It exists of the trendy booths where you can have your most private conversations, and the sexy main lounge area.
