The UK’s dirtiest entertainment venues revealed – and Heaven takes top spot!
Heaven, London
Reviews mentioning dirtiness: 13.77%
According to the popular music establishment, Heaven is the only one-thousand-capacity venue for live music in central London. Ironically, despite being called Heaven, it could be conceived as quite the opposite, with approximately 13.77% mentions of dirtiness on Tripadvisor, placing it at the top of the list. One unfortunate visitor described it as a ‘very dirty and smelly place’ while another stated, ‘this place is just so filthy. Never returning this is more like hell than heaven.’
Just the Tonic Comedy Club, Nottingham
Reviews mentioning dirtiness: 10.26%
Around 10.26% of reviews for Just the Tonic Comedy Club mention dirtiness, making it the second dirtiest entertainment venue in the country. Though it has a strong history of producing comedy shows in Nottingham for the last 30 years, cleanliness levels have not been maintained.
A visitor said, ‘The floor was so dirty that my shoes stuck to it.’ However, some customers gave them the benefit of the doubt, choosing to see past the flaws, as they mentioned that ‘despite the toilets being filthy and the hand dryer broken, we had a good night.’
Aspers Casino, London
Reviews mentioning dirtiness: 9.54%
Aspers Casino is among the top three dirtiest entertainment venues in the UK, with 9.54% of reviews citing dirtiness. London’s first and only super casino boasts a vast array of live and electronic games, and it is a popular entertainment hotspot. However, the establishment’s ‘dirty environment’ seems to have let it down significantly. With words such as ‘grim’, ‘dirty’, ‘disgusting’ and ‘nasty’ being used to describe the venue, it’s evident that many customers have left feeling rather unimpressed.
