The Garden Room
If you like your hidden gems well concealed this is the place for you. The Bourne and Hollingsworth Garden Room is on the 10th Floor of the Assembly Hotel not far away from Leicester Square.

York Gate
Nestled in the corner of Victoria Embankment Gardens is the York Gate upon the steps which the waters of the River Thames gently lapped for centuries.

The Seven Dials
Seven Dials lies on the border of Covent Garden and London's West End and is a stones throw from hedonistic Soho. It has a very distinctive layout with a central monument – essentially a big sundial and streets passing off it like spokes in a wheel.
There is also a fascinating story behind it which goes back to the 17th century and...
