Dock House is a sweet little hotel at the V&A Waterfront with a secret garden, bar and swimming pool and is situated alongside Timeball Tower that dates back to the mid 1800′s
At around 5.30 we docked in at Dock House for a cocktail party and pre-launch of the Queen Victoria hotel.
The buffet table was set and sensational! Beautiful flowers that graced the tables, a wide range of tantalizing dishes from various culinary parts of the world, colorful cocktail drinks, champagne, wine and fresh oysters that were cracked open in front of you by an oyster guru.
Neil Markovitz of Newmark Hotels found his mark when he teased his guests with a sneak preview behind the developing scenes of the Queen Victoria Hotel. We were invited on a guided tour wearing hard hats and slippers to protect our shoes; especially those Jimmy Choo’s, as we trudged under scaffolding and on unfinished concrete floors and through doors to the top of the building we were welcomed by a young violinist playing sweet, soft classical music that complimented the sweet array of delicate petit fours, this was the cherry on the top and such a delight it was from a dizzy height!
QueenB!……..Abuzzing off
