On a slightly different an interesting one opening in Crouch End (though serviced apartments). middle of this year.
I stayed in Great Scotland Yard before Christmas - that was nice. The cocktail bar was excellent. Wanted to try out the OWO round the corner on Whitehall but my boss bagged the freebie for there. On a more reasonable level (ie ones I can actually afford to pay for) I quite like the Thistle hotels (one in Barbican is a good location) and love the Z Hotels as well - basic but very comfortable, and normally lovely people working there. Used the one on City Road a few time - again also a great location.
Heh, makes me recall a bit of AWIMB antiquity, the OXO tower. A review:
"When my boyfriend told me he wanted to take me up the Oxo Tower for my birthday, I was a bit hesitant at first because I didn't really think it was my scene. How wrong I was! I mean, yeah, so it's a bit of a strain on the old back pocket, and I admit I did feel a bit uncomfortable initially. But a couple of cocktails helped me relax and soon I was really getting into it - we carried on well into the night. It was a great experience and I really loved it - so much so that I won't let my boyfriend take me anywhere else now! So if anyone ever wants to take you up the Oxo Tower, just throw caution to the wind and go for it!"

Stayed at Ham Yard when it opened, the Grosvenor, Dorchester, many times following an annual industry bashes. The Hampshire, in a room with a very nice 4 poster that overlooked Leicester Square but I still have a soft spot for The Langham. :)
