While there was an interesting effort to draw on the Caribbean roots of post-war Notting Hill and its famous carnival, the overall design feels artificial due to some poorly executed details. Specifically, the "fake distress" of much of the furniture gives the impression of cheapness rather than authenticity. It's surprising that with the likely substantial budgets of hotel "brands," they still miss the mark despite good intentions. In the end, this spacious lounge and bar seems like a missed opportunity to attract locals and become a popular hub in Notting Hill. By refining their approach, they could potentially win over both hotel guests and neighborhood residents, transforming it into a must-visit destination. Hopefully, they will make adjustments to avoid leaving the area with a large, uninviting, brightly lit space.

We had a blackberry mojito and a pornstar martini(both good but not exceptional). The staff was friendly but a bit inexperienced. I would go again.

And the worst bouncers i have ever encountered. Not recommended at all!!!

I could just hang there, I couldn't resist, but taking one bite, I thought they wouldn't use chili too hot for a garnish. I was wrong. a tiny bite from the end was everything I could really take, although I used it to stir my martini, which conveys something extra warm. it was such a good creation that you could definitely taste the vanilla that naturally gave the cocktail a sweet taste, but the bite the chili tempered this so that it did not feel like a dessert cocktail. and the apple taste was the main aroma. the pfeffer that was blown up was a nice note when they got some of the ice cream he had settled on.<br/ <br/ I think I had the aprikosencooler for my second drink, and it was nice, but I can't remember much. that is not to say that this was a bad drink, I know that it was 't I would have reminded myself if it had been, but it was darkened by, you guessed that martini. stephen had the Rhabarb sour, the type of the same fateal suffered. I can see that I make a beeline for this place in the cold winter nights, in his cozy dimming, where I am happy to go through the cocktail list of the development of a 'biercoat' especially in winter when his cozy intimate aura will be like a warm deck.

I saw one of the cocktails in a milk bottle.
