Also, back by popular demand will be a series of bar \u201ctakeovers\u201d which involves your favourite bar transforming itself into an exotic cocktail heaven for the week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drinkup.london\/cocktailweek\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/drinkup.london\/cocktailweek\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row room-type h-auto\">\n<div class=\"row margin-b-10\"><strong>Crazy Rich Asians \u2013 Cinemas Londonwide<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"row margin-b-10\">\n<div class=\"content-area col-sm-3\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spaceaparthotel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/crazy-rich-asians-cinema.jpg\" alt=\"Crazy Rich Asians \u2013 Cinemas Londonwide\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"content-area alignrightauto\">Do you still reckon that life in today\u2019s Chinese diaspora is centred solely on humility and service? If you do then Crazy, Rich Asians is the film that\u2019s going to pop that particular thought bubble. Based on a best-selling novel, the central plot involves a Chinese-American bride and her attempts to integrate with her new husband\u2019s insanely wealthy Singaporean family.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a wonderful look into the opulent lifestyle led by members of Singapore\u2019s elite families, but it is also about the massive pressure to succeed that some of its younger members experience. However, that isn\u2019t to say that the film is a heavy social commentary. There\u2019s plenty of comedy and family pratfalls as everyone tries to adjust and like all good rom-coms, the wedding is worthy of a film in itself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row room-type h-auto\">\n<div class=\"row margin-b-10\"><strong>Good Godfrey\u2019s &#8211; Waldorf Astoria Hilton, Aldwych<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"row margin-b-10\">\n<div class=\"content-area col-sm-3\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spaceaparthotel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/good-godfreys.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"content-area alignrightauto\">Backing onto the cluster of venues that make up London\u2019s famous Theatreland district, the Waldorf Astoria Hilton is a hotel that knows its pedigree and therefore strives to conjure up an atmosphere of jazz-age glamour for a discerning clientele. Good Godfery\u2019s is an in-house cocktail bar that has become very much part and parcel of this approach and is the perfect spot from which to launch your night out on the town.<\/p>\n<p>The Art Deco chandeliers and wood panelling make it a good wind down zone as well as it specialises in late night snacks and coffees. However, cocktails are Good Godfery\u2019s main thing and Waldorf-tini and the Astor Hip Flask are old-school tipples that come highly recommended. Retail warriors can take a break from hitting the Covent Garden boutiques by dropping in for an excellent Afternoon Tea.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.hilton.com\/en\/hotels\/united-kingdom\/the-waldorf-hilton-london-LONWAHI\/dining\/index.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www3.hilton.com\/en\/hotels\/united-kingdom\/the-waldorf-hilton-london-LONWAHI\/dining\/index.html <\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row room-type h-auto\">\n<div class=\"row margin-b-10\"><strong>Guys and Dolls \u2013 Royal Albert Hall<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"row margin-b-10\">\n<div class=\"content-area col-sm-3\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spaceaparthotel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/royal-albert-hall.jpg\" alt=\"Guys and Dolls \u2013 Royal Albert Hall\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"content-area alignrightauto\">Guys and Dolls is the musical comedy that will always be remembered as the time Frank Sinatra was miscast opposite Marlon Brando (Non singing Brando got to sing a main hit that was seemingly tailor-made for Ol\u2019 Blue Eyes). Still, they both did a good enough job to have people flocking to its revival decades later and this semi-staged production is the latest addition to the tradition.<\/p>\n<p>Backed by the mighty Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, a star cast bring to life the loves and losses experienced a group of disparate individuals in prohibition era America. Adrian Lester plays the smart, wise-cracking romantic lead whose destiny is changed by a beautiful, yet unobtainable woman. The supporting cast give their all to sharp songs like \u201cLuck Be a Lady\u201d and \u201cSit Down Your Rockin\u2019 the Boat\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.royalalberthall.com\/tickets\/events\/2018\/guys-and-dolls\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.royalalberthall.com\/tickets\/events\/2018\/guys-and-dolls\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An amalgamation of period charm and cultural confidence make London the perfect place for a bit of retro glamour.
