Hibiki

The UAE's first ever karaoke spot is still going strong 6 Reviews

A must-visit on the city’s karaoke trail, the Hyatt Regency’s Hibiki lounge lays claim to being the first legitimate warbling spot in the UAE. It’s a tried-and-tested winner for those looking to serenade (or not, as the
case may be) friends following the hotel’s Foccacia brunch.

The place is quite nice, but the room we got was kinda crammed and the A/C was terrible. The service was good and we had loads of fun!

Hibiki is the best place i ever been for singing. Me & my friends celebrate our get together and we really just had so much fun. The service is excellent, staff was so friendly, you could almost feel you are part of the family. We really had a great time.

Definitely will be back again for another great night at Hibiki!

8 Years ago, a very timid me went into the Hibiki Lounge. I came out transformed. I always loved singing, but i had never done it on this kind of platform. Here it actually gave you room to improve. I have always found that singing relaxes me and its probably the most fun thing i like doing.

8 years now and i can still say the same, its a place i will never ever forget, the staff and the regular guests treat each other more like family than just friends and customers. I have taken a lot of my friends there through the years and they were always amazed. Hibiki apart from showcasing some amazing talent, is also home to lots of nervous bathroom singers who lack the confidence. We the supportive gang at Hibiki take care of this.

So in closing - Come on down , try your own voice - Amaze yourself.


Through the ages i would like to thank - Vangie - Avi - Anel - And now of course Selim, Andy, Wilma and James.... You guys make us feel right at home....
