London


Any time I make it "across the pond" I just have to visit London. It's one of my favorite cities in the world. After leaving Venice I was attending Travel & Leisure's Advisory Board meeting at the London Langham Hotel. The hotel is 140 years of history. The hotel has just undergone an extensive renovation and is a visual delight. The restaurants and bars just exude old world charm but everything is leading edge. Even the ice used in the bars and cocktail lounges is made with a special process that makes the ice denser and colder than normal ice.

The rooms and suites are "extravagantly comfortable" and have all the modern amenities.

The service was impeccable but not ostentatious. After all they have had a lot of practice attending to the needs of travelling elite. It is located in the heart of the city and is a wonderful sanctuary from a day of business or sightseeing. The Langham is a true 5 star experience
