The Carlton Tower Jumeirah, a leading luxury hotel in London, will set hearts aflutter this Valentine’s Day with a trio of limited-edition cocktails inspired by some of the greatest love stories of ‘The Swinging Sixties’.
In a press statement, the hotel says that created by the hotel’s talented bar team, the exclusive cocktail menu designed to make even the cold-hearted blush will be available for guests from February 9-14. The statement adds that celebrating love in its many forms, the trio of cocktails honour a time when Carlton Tower was a new hotel, when change was in the air and the power of love was unstoppable.
In the 1960’s London, the Carlton Tower was described as a modern and youthful hotel and became the destination to see and be seen for movie stars, royalty, and fashion models alike. The statement adds that because diamonds are forever and so is love, Carton Tower had the privilege to welcome back Mr & Mrs Brown on their 60th diamond wedding anniversary, a couple who celebrated their honeymoon at the hotel in 1963, proving love really does last the test of time.
The trio of cocktails include, ‘Mr & Mrs Brown’, made with vodka, passion fruit, raspberry, and apple syrup, ‘Jean Shrimpton & David Bailey’, featuring marshmallow bourbon, limoncello, fresh lemon juice and rock candy syrup, and finally ‘John Lennon and Yoko Ono’, consisting of gin, blackberry tonka syrup, fresh lemon juice and topped off with sparkling wine, each one more tantalising than the last and sure to get your taste buds tingling this Valentine’s Day.
The hotel adds that for couples looking to create their very own love story at The Carlton Tower and have wellness at their heart, it has created a special treatment for two. The Celebration of Love, as it has been called by the hotel, is available for GBP 500 at the hotel’s Peak Fitness Club & Spa. A treatment specially created for two, this full body massage incorporates rose quartz palm stones and essential oils designed to relax and invigorate, the statement adds.
The hotel says that for those wanting to go the extra mile for the epitome of romance, guests can enquire for a private candlelit couple’s swim under the stars in London’s largest moonlit indoor swimming pool adored with thousands upon thousands of red rose petals followed by ‘The Celebration of Love’ treatment.
“It was an honour to welcome Mr & Mrs Brown back to The Carlton Tower. After spending their honeymoon here in the 60’s and visiting twice after, they truly are a part of our history and what better way to celebrate their love story with us by witnessing this remarkable occasion,” says Gianluca Priori, General Manager, Carlton Tower.
The trio of cocktails are available at the hotel bar and are priced at GBP 18 each, while guests can enquire for the spa treatment on the hotel’s website.
