And an SLH property, so it is a boutique hotel, and not a price that is overly expensive. I was surprised to find out that the hotel was built only about 14 years ago. A … Read More
EXPECTATIONS: I think a really pleasant surprise, but let’s see.

Mohamed “The Guide” mentioned a new 5-star hotel that just opened, and perhaps we wanted to try that instead. Why not, 5-star … Read More
Great Fosters is my favorite stop over hotel ever. If I only have one or two nights in London, this is the place we go. 15 minute drive from Heathrow, and it is a quiet and restful proper English Hotel.
