The Langham Hotel is one of those high-ceilinged, marble-pillared palaces that many well-padded visitors, yet few resident Londoners, seem to visit. But it’s worth getting your best togs on just to admire David Collins’s design of this handsome room. The result blends grand Victorian decadence (marble bar, soaring inset mirrors) with modern details (purple snakeskin-effect leather seats, carved pagoda-style back bar).

As if that’s not enough, world-renowned bartender Alex Kratena has won more awards for his mixology skills than Michael Phelps has gold medals. Service is faultless, and the drinks list is divided into categories such as ‘rum de luxe’, ‘tonic and gin’, ‘heritage’ and ‘Arstesian classics’. The only catch is that such opulence and perfection doesn’t come cheap, with most cocktails starting at around £15, excluding service.

Felt a little underdressed in my jeans and shirt but no one batted an eyelid. Cool tunes fresh cocktails and tasty nibbles. Ideal pick me up after a days shopping or before a night out. 8/10
