Bars at the Gatwick Sofitel Hotel
Bars to make your heart beat faster
The Sofitel has two excellent bars. For a quiet drink with a spectacular view over the soaring atrium theres La Terrasse, which offers snacks and refreshments all day. For something a little more exotic, the Kua Bar, up one flight of steps from the bustling lobby, is just the place for a spot of people-watching over a cocktail.
The Kua Bar
- Kua Bar
- 5.30pm to midnight
The Kua Bar serves a range of very moreish cocktails from 5.30pm to 11pm. A Nude Cosmopolitan, for instance, just cries out to be sampled, and tastes as delicious as it sounds it comes with cranberry juice, cointreau, lime and tequila.
Just one warning you could be on a slippery slope with the cocktails at the Kua. Don't linger too long if you're planning to be up early the next morning - it's very easy to enjoy one more of them than you intended!
La Terrasse
- La Terrasse
- 7am to 1am
A tasteful little bar in the main atrium, La Terrasse is really two bars. The first is a Parisian-style cafe overlooking the lobby and the main public areas of the hotel - a great place to people-watch or enjoy a light bite.
The second part of La Terrasse is the Library, which is tucked away behind the bar itself and has a quieter, more secluded atmosphere - the ideal place to stretch out with a newspaper or a good book.
