A few glasses of bubbly and a facial - not a bad start to the big metal tube journey!

We visited Sky Bar the first time and got first an awful table. When they mentioned that we are Hotel guests, we got another one..... Must I say more????
Wow, I can't believe they make the guests pay entrance fees I assumed guests were exempt from the minimum spends etc.. Is it really in another league? Did you write a trip report? Would love to read!
