WHY WE LOVE THIS BAR...

Head to the eighth floor of this impressive hotel in the corner of Leicester Square and discover a Japanese wonderland spread across three beautifully themed spaces - with a high end sake collection that alone is worth making the climb. The neat monochrome bar is great if there's only a couple of you and the lounge and terrace has more room to spread out and enjoy a stellar view over the city... And if you're after a more sensory experience, make sure you seek out the Shima Garden with its open roof and fireplace. The menus are different throughout the whole place, the modern Japanese dishes are excellent and they have DJs on the weekend to mix things up - in our opinion, well worth a visit.
