You know summer has arrived when you get an invitation for “cocktails on the terrace”. Sadly for me the sun had well and truly taken his hat off on the evening in question and it was under a very grey sky that I headed over to the opening of the outdoor Terrace at the Royal Horseguards hotel. The weather may not have been playing ball but with the terrace decked in large canopies and patio heaters, you are guaranteed to stay warm and dry. There are also blankets draped over the wicker furniture to keep you extra snug as the evening goes on.
Wandering around the wonderful city of London you can’t throw a china teacup without hitting one of the many 5* hotels around. You might think that these elegant establishments are for those with oodles of money and wardrobes bursting with designer clothes but you’d be wrong.There are many ways that even I can enjoy a touch of luxury. Most hotels offer a high tea that is open to everyone and you don’t need to be a hotel guest to enjoy it. One such place is The Royal Horseguards Hotel situated near the banks of the River Thames on Whitehall Court.
Summer in the city calls for cocktails, nibbles and time spent outdoors. The Terrace at the Royal Horseguards Hotel is a great place to enjoy all three, as I discovered when I attended for drinks and canapes for an event last month. The space is gorgeous, the food delicious, and the staff knowledgeable and gracious. I'd heartily recommend vsiting if you're in this neck of the woods.
