Advantages: Lovely staff, beautiful rooms, modern hotel Disadvantages: Slightly out of the way of the West End
We wanted to stay somewhere in central London that was value for money, and found this brilliant hotel for only £69 per night. We booked directly with the hotel itself, and while the system can be a little frustrating the transaction went through smoothly. This was in December 2008, so we didn't expect any decent hotels so close to Christmas to be so cheap. While this hotel is a little out of the way of main attractions it is close to the Tower of London, and to Tower Bridge and easily accessible by bus and tube. On arriving by tube, we found the hotel was alittle bit tricky to find, and were saved only by the fact that by boyfriend's phone has sat-nav!
On arriving we were greeted by friendly and efficeint staff. The entrance to the hotel was modern and swish, befitting a four star hotel with marble and stainless tell everywhere ...
Advantages: proximity to centre, excellent rooms Disadvantages: Bar tab in the morning
When booking a hotel in London for the first time, it's hard to know where to book.
We booked this one knowing it was close to the Tate and also to Westminster (the clue was in the name).
We arrived on a Friday evening and were pleasantly surprised that the street outside looked very safe and that parking was free. Also no congestion charge!
On arrival, our bags were taken and after check in the porter showed us our room. It was a fair size and had a nice bathroom. There was a dvd player, LCD TV, desk with a leather chair and a very large double bed. The bathrooms consisted of both bath and shower and the toiletries were made by the White Company - a decent brand! The hotel room was air conditions with a control ont eh wall to change the setting. Also there was a mini-bar, although a little bit on the pricy side!

Advantages: VERY IMPRESSIVE FILM Disadvantages: NONE
This film won the British Independent Film Award for Best Achievement in Production in 2006, the Golden Hitchcock Award at the Dinard British Film Festival for Paul Williams (2006), the director, the New Director's Award at the Edinbugh Film Festival 2006, the Evening Standard British Film Awards for most promising newcomer for Paul Williams in 2007, the Festival Prize for best feature film at the Foyle Film Festival in 2006, the Raindance Film Festival Juy Prize for UK Feature for Paul Williams in 2006 and was nominated for six other awards.
This isn't surprising because the film displays an uncompromising view of the seedy, sordid, salacious underbelly of London, with its vicious disregard for humanity and this vision of life that has a visceral effect on the viewer. There is a grim sense of inevitability about the film: people ...
