Spectacular Rooftop Gardens

One of Montreal’s most historic hotels, Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth is especially unique for its self-irrigating edible rooftop garden where vegetables, herbs and over 400 edible flowers grow for the three on-site restaurants. 

Inspired by the Alhambra in Granada, Spain, this Spanish-themed oasis is just one of three luxurious green spaces that comprise The Rooftop Gardens in London. 

Open to the public with tours and lunch on specific days, the rooftop garden at New York’s Waldorf-Astoria is located on the 20th floor and includes designated raised beds for fig and apple trees, hops, strawberries, herbs which are used by the hotel’s executive chef for meals. Local honey is also produced here by the more than 360,000 European honeybees that live in the hives. 

From the Vista Rooftop Bar and garden of the Tragalgar Hotel in London, you get lush green surroundings while you take in the spectacular views of the city which include the London Eye, the giant Ferris wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames.
