  2. Dutch Club London, some former details. I worked there in 1973 as host when it was still at Sackville Street, next to Picadilly Circus. A real club for self proclaimed gentlemen, businessmen who frequented between London and Amsterdam. Leather upholstery, newspapers, breakfast and a quick evening bite, cigars.
    In 1973 the 100-year lease ended which forced the Dutch Club out, because the rent went up 3000%. It then supposedly moved to the outskirts and The Royal Thames Yacht Club could be one of these. In 2014 I did find some trace but not since 2015.
