The Emory Rooftop Bar

Perched on the tenth floor of London’s first all-suite hotel, The Emory Rooftop Bar is a sleek hideaway with jaw-dropping 360-degree views of Hyde Park and the city skyline. Designed by acclaimed architect Richard Rogers and styled by Rémi Tessier, the space feels effortlessly modern - think curved glass walls, stainless steel accents, and an enclosed pavilion that works year-round. It’s intimate too, with just a handful of tables and bar stools, so expect an exclusive vibe rather than a bustling crowd.

Legendary Argentinian bartender Renato ‘Tato’ Giovannoni – the creative force behind one of the World’s 50 Best Bars – curates the cocktail menu. His drinks are a love letter to London, infused with Argentinian flair and storytelling. Expect inventive serves that nod to his Buenos Aires roots and decades in mixology, all paired with a playlist of tango beats and a backdrop of London’s most iconic landmarks.

The Emory itself is part of the Maybourne Hotel Group (think Claridge’s and The Connaught), and its culinary program is overseen by world-renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. While the rooftop bar focuses on cocktails, the hotel’s dining spaces lean into plant-forward dishes and global influences. Awards? The Emory has already made waves for its design and exclusivity, and Tato’s presence brings serious industry clout – he’s an Industry Icon Award winner and a name that cocktail lovers travel for.
