Another high rise drinking destination has just opened at the very top of the Shard, as the Shangri La has opened their new Skypool bar to the public. From 8.30 pm, you can now book a seat poolside (it seats 30) with drinks and snacks from the neighbouring Gong bar.
The only catch is, you'll only be able to lounge beside the pool, not in the pool as that's reserved for guests earlier in the day. As long as you don't have a few too many cocktails and mis-step, of course...
You can book the Skypool by calling 020 7234 8208 or email gong.slln@shangri-la.com.
