4th Floor is a first class club for students, with celebrity DJs, cheap drinks and arguably the best view of London - what more could you what?

The Venue
Tutus is, unsurprisingly, on the 4th floor and is made up of a main dancefloor with a stage packed with writhing students, and an upstairs bar area where the glass windows show London at its best; unfortunately, with extremely little seating it’s hard to appreciate. Silver, dark blue, light wood, dark brown - the random, industrial themed decor isn’t exactly thrilling and at times looks very boring and bare, but the spectacular scene of London lit up and the dark, moody lighting masks most faults. There are two bars, but with limited space and large crowds of thirsty students, it can take a long time to get a drink.

The Atmosphere
4th Floor is packed with Kings students all nights of the week, especially on Saturday nights for the legendary 4th floor club night. Everyone is tipsy, lively and extremely friendly so you’ll soon find yourself having a good time with your friends but also having a laugh chatting to strangers. A sense of familiarity is in the air as this is a regular hang out for many Kings students, so the atmosphere is very relaxed, but on the dancefloor, it’s all about having a good time.

The Music
The music is a commercial mix of mostly indie, with some electro and RnB, and anything else the DJ fancies, making it a good blend of top tunes and club tracks. The glammed up girls strut their stuff on stage whilst the boys eagerly watch them and try out some sexy moves to entice them (blame it on all the hormones). No one cares what they look like, who they’re with or what they’re doing, which is echoed in the music that appeals to their fun loving, easy going nature. Celebrity DJs regularly appear, such as CSS and The Blah Blah Blahs, making some nights truly special, but on regular nights the music all starts to sound a bit too similar.

The Drink
Cheap is the operative word here, as London students need somewhere to buy their drinks without maxing out their overdraft. Cocktails are available for the bargain price of £5 for a pint, and with sweet fruity choices such as Sex on the Beach and Woo Woo, which are surprisingly pleasant, combined with hardcore alcoholic legends like Long Island Ice Tea - be careful, this packs a big punch - there’s enough on the list to keep everyone happy. Shooters for £3 are generously sized and a delicious way to get your night going. Of course, there’s the usual selection of basic spirits and mixers for reasonable prices, but the wine and beer selection is stripped to the bare essentials.

The Last Word
With no particular thrills or frills, 4th floor isn’t as amazing as some other London clubs, but with ok music, a great atmosphere and unbeatable cheap prices (like £5 entry with NUS), it’s perfect for a taste of student nightlife.
