The Champagne Bar




Behind the stunning façade of this Grade-I listed building, find The Champagne Bar, which has been reinvented by Searcy’s. Offering an array of fizz, including one of the largest selections of magnums in London, alongside creative cocktails, British bar bites and a roster of events. Once the wine cellars of the Prince of Wales and the United Service Club, the space is now one of the most stunning champagne bars in London. The Champagne Bar can also be hired for an event or gathering.

Why Esther Loves This Venue

“The Champagne bar is my favourite. It’s located underground behind stunning iron gates that served as the original cellar doors. There is also a Grand Staircase and Gallery, which is one of the most iconic features and can be used for reception areas. The hotel is completely full of history and each room has its unique character.”
