About the Author

Since first opening its doors, Claridge's has been the destination for fashionable London. Bought in 1854 by Mr and Mrs William Claridge, the hotel received the ultimate accolade in 1860 when Queen Victoria visited Claridge's to see her friend Empress Eugenie of France. It is an institution that today commands remarkable levels of interest, adulation and respect - and with good reason.

With a rich history of enveloping guests in the most luxurious levels of comfort and care, Claridge's authority when it comes to cocktails is unparalleled.
