You know Elysium loves the movies. You also know that Elysium is big on über stylish hotels too. When the two meet in holy union it’s a truly wonderful thing. So, as a fellow movie-loving discerning gent with a similar weakness to such knock-out combo’s you’ll be very interested to hear about the new W Film Club at the W Hotel then.
Yes, the W London, one of the capital’s most funky and frivolous hotels, is launching their very own film club with fortnightly screenings of new releases at the venue’s luxury 39-seater screening room.
It’s a bold move from the W Hotel, considering their neighbours host weekly red carpet premieres, but Leicester Square is the hub of motion picture action in the capital and we at Elysium Towers welcome this addition for your viewing pleasure. Why? Because it gives discerning gents the trump card the next time it’s date night. Sidestepping the usual multiplexes for a change, a night out the W London is sure to impress partner or date in equal measure.
The bonus – popcorn is included as part of the ticket (£15), or for a touch more (£20) you can bag a VIP ticket which includes popcorn and a drink at the W Lounge Bar. Better still – if you fancy a bite to eat pre or post film, you can enjoy a meal at the hotel’s Asian-inspired restaurant, Spice Market. The special Film Club bento box gets you tasty treats such as sea bass with shiitake mushrooms, spiced chicken samosas and avocado summer rolls, accompanied by a raspberry lychee bellini for £20 per person.
So take your pick from the following films and experience the movies a different way for a change:
- 16th Oct – On The Road
- 30th Oct – Looper
- 13th Nov – The Perks Of Being A Wallflower
- 27th Nov – Killing Them Softly
- 11th Dec – Seven Psychopaths
- 8th Jan – Life Of Pi
- 15th Jan – Gangster Squad
