30 THE WORLD OF HOSPITALITY
BAR
Savage Garden Opens In Tower Hill
Bar
An exploration of the brutal and experimental
comes to London when new destination
rooftop bar, Savage Garden, opens in Tower
Hill this June.
Taking over the former Sky Lounge site on
the 12th floor of the DoubleTree by Hilton
Hotel London – Tower of London, the new
8870 sq ft, 400 capacity lounge bar is being
transformed by leisure and hospitality
specialists, Grapes Design. It will include
a feature bar, cocktail lounge, dining areas
and private hire spaces as well as two large
outdoor terraces.
Interiors feature reflective, scored and
torn surfaces and a bespoke graffiti mural
contrasting with soft velvet finishes and
marbleised floors. The north and south f acing
terraces, one acting as a dedicated events
space, look out over London landmarks
Tower Bridge, The Shard, Tower of London,
The Gherkin and St. Paul’s Cathedral. A
retractable roof over the north terrace allows
easy transitioning from an al fresco summer
hotspot into a winter events space for private
hire and seasonal pop-ups.
Hospitality consultancy Gorgeous Group has
created the name and concept, focusing on
the innovative and unexpected in both the
cocktail list and all-day food menu. Drinks
will include twisted cocktails in theatrical
serves, all using premium spirits. Food takes
traditional comfort dishes and feasting plates
and gives them a dark twist.
Hotel owner Shahin Esmail said: “I had a vision
of creating a wild and escapist bar that tears
up the rulebook. A bar that surprises and
delights. Yes, we will have incredible vistas
out over London, but Savage Garden will be
so much more than just the view, it will be an
intriguing and engaging experience, from start
to finish.”
Robbie Bargh of Gorgeous Group added:
“Savage Garden is breaking away from the
botanical trend to provide a moodier, more
alternative vibe to rooftop drinking and dining.
It’s bringing something a bit different to
London’s bar scene.”
