Kensington Roof Gardens

One of the most beautiful venues in London is the prestigious Kensington Roof Gardens. Located on the 6th floor of a rather majestic building just off of Kensington High street, a lift takes party goers up by the group to wait in line for entry by the cloakroom. Entry is only possible as a member or being on a guest list, so befriending members is a priority for all who wish to visit. After paying the extortionate fee to get in (some £25) I enter into the main room with its white tile finish, large rounded glass floor-to-ceiling windows and white curtains dotted around the white room are pillars and centrally sits a dance floor with pop and  rnb tunes being spluttered out. The drinks are also quite expensive, with cocktails available and wine from about £25 a bottle. Heading down a passage off to one side, the venue opens out onto a scene of well tended gardens with lawn, a live orchestra and thick full-set trees, hedges, shrubs, beautiful flowers and water features about the place. Up-lighting and romantic benches, strategically placed for privacy among the garden really bring the place to life. Off to one side of the gardens is a restaurant and a large glass room with heavenly neon lighting equipped with Shisha, of a more modern variety with strange tubing, ornate glass vessels and deep sofas. There are also BBQ services and burgers cooked fresh all through the night, during the summer months.

Overall the Kensington Roof gardens is a haven of absolute luxury. The experience is breathtaking and the evening, wonderful (with the right amount of cash) The only turn-off is the number of beautiful women throwing themselves at the feet of rich, ugly, old men. I would definitely frequent this venue if invited, and would consider membership if it were more affordable - 9/10
