Annabel's Club in Berkley Square
Aristotle Onassis once danced there with Jacqueline Kennedy, and it is said to be the only night club the Queen has ever visited. There's not a lot to see on the outside, just a stairway to the basement, but like everywhere else, these days smokers have to go outside - silver trousers'n'all. This is still the most exclusive nightclub in London - possibly the world and a great place to find paparazzi. Which is why I didn't stay around. Useless fact of the day: it was named after the wife of the founder.

A further useless fact...I believe the owner's wife, Annabel, is the sister of Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, wife of Prince Charles.
You are so wrong. The club is named after Lady Anabelle Goldsmith, who formerly was married to Mark Birley at the time to which the club owes its name. Lady Anabelle Goldsmith is most likely the best known and best connected socialite in London society.
Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, does have a sister, Annabel Shand Elliot.
