Putting on The Ritz
Review of The Ritz, London by
matthewsteeples
Advantages: Style, excellent service, great location
Disadvantages: Too many tourists
The only problem with The Ritz is that being such a landmark it does attract a bizarre mixture of people.
The Rivoli Bar is perhaps a bit kitsch for some, decorated with much gold and glitz, but The Palm Court and adjoining lounge bar are sophistication in themselves and ideal places to take elderly relatives to tea or for drinks with clients/friends.
The restaurant offers the best of British in terms of a traditional menu and the room is spectacular. ... ...Rooms are excellent and of the high standard one would expect of a hotel of this calibre. Prices are high, but for that you do get the best.
The service is impeccable, the staff excellent and their attentive yet discrete manner is most impressive.
Conveniently situated on Piccadilly, the location is perfect for those looking for somewhere close to theatreland, the Royal Parks, shopping on Bond Street and Jermyn Street, etc. etc.
If you want to ...

A night in this bed ain't enough
Review of Swissotel The Howard, London by
Delicate_Orchid
Advantages: Clean, comfy beds
Disadvantages: Initial problems on check in
...deal: The 5 star rated Swissotel for £100 a night! This is about 75%cheaper than their usual rates.
OUR EXPERIENCE
Check-in time is at 14:00, so to make the most of out stay, we got there about 14:45. We were greeted by very friendly staff at check-in.
However, we were informed that our requested non-smoking room was not yet available. The gentleman checked us into a smoking room instead, stating, 'You can always come back if it smells of too ... ...plan to stay at the Swissotel Drake in New York, before the 31st of August you will receive VIP treatment - including an upgrade to a suite and late checkout. (Not like anyone normal can afford that!)
You will have to contact the hotel for deals going on a the time.

The London Hilton on Park Lane - It's the Daddy!
Review of London Hilton on Park Lane, London by
andymcf
Advantages: True five-star oasis of calm and comfort with a few tricks up its sleeve.
Disadvantages: It would be somewhat churlish to nit-pick. Read the review!
...be - THE Hilton. The London Hilton on Park Lane has, always been "The Hilton" and this 28-storey icon is a London landmark that I have wanted to stay in for nigh on 30 years. This weekend, the dream came true. Nor was the bubble burst. Booking I booked on-line through the Hilton website and was offered a rate of just under UKP 128, plus taxes. The room-only room rate of UKP 150 (about $300) was something of a snip and it would have been rude not ... ...The room London hotels are noted, probably, for two things; high prices and small rooms. Here, I thought that the price was good for what we got. The room, also, was by no means cramped. In fact, at 22 square metres, it was actually quite spacious. the King-sized bed was huge and proved to be extraordinarily comfortable. The comfy chair was very comfortable. The television was large and had a good selection of channels. There was a personalised welcome ...

Five star experience
Review of Hyatt Regency London - The Churchill, London by
mileslondoner
Advantages: Cental location, excellent serivce, wifi internet, tennis court
Disadvantages: Five star prices
...Churchill now managed by the Hyatt is one of the best London hotels. Hotel facilities: famous Cigar bar, recently opened (2005) Montagu Restaurant, one of the best italian restaurants in the city Locanda Locatelli, wi-fi internet, health club, hairdresser, tennis court on Portman Square, attentive security and so on.
Rooms are big, clean and really 5 star standard. For a small supplement you can enjoy club lounge facilities with unlimited soft and ... ...this place is well organized. The best option if money is not an issue it to go for a Portman Square view room, on the 8 floor. The best rate you can get is to be found on the hyatt's website. (it depends of the time of the year but all in all it is gonna be above 120 pounds) ...

Some well deserved luxury!
Review of The Berkeley, London by
petal99
Advantages: Feeling like a VIP
Disadvantages: Prices can be tough on ordinary people like me!
The company I used to work for a few years ago used to have our yearly Christmas party at the Berkeley, so while I worked for them we had three Christmas parties at the same hotel. The reason for this is simply because their service was absolutely impeccable and every time was an amazing evening to remember…
It also happens that every year we used to have a Christmas raffle, where people used to win gifts, and during my last party I actually won ... ...which was offered by the hotel itself! So, because of my various experiences with them, I will try to make this review as detailed as possible.
While some people might find celebrating the Christmas party at the same venue slightly boring, we all actually thought of this as a beautiful event we could not wait to attend. While working for that company I organized 3 of the parties and have to confess that their management is absolutely delightful ...
