Luxury in the Capital at Royal Lancaster London Hotel



London is by far one of the most historical and exciting cities in the world and one thing you’re never too far from is somewhere to stay. Whether you are looking for budget, mid range or luxury- you can be sure there is always something for you. 

I wanted to share my love and adoration for the Royal Lancaster London which is conveniently located in the heart of London, a stones throw from Lancaster Gate tube station and five minutes from Paddington station. The five star hotel has recently undergone an £85 million refurbishment and is more than ever a huge hit in the hospitality world and a hub for guests and travellers worldwide. Upon entering the hotel, the luxury hits you instantly with the design and overall concept by London based interior designer company Studio Proof. The feel of the hotel is simply pure class, elegance and modern architecture. It’s bright, welcoming and from the lighting to the furniture to the marble flooring, there is not a single thing you are not in awe of. The staff are extremely welcoming, and are always on hand to ensure your stay is nothing but relaxed and perfect. 

This 18th storey high hotel boasts a total of 411 guest rooms and suites and are perfect for both couples and families alike. The rooms are one of the spaciest I have experienced in London with a classic double room being a generous 20 square meters in size. If you are after even more luxury and facilities then the executive double room is the one to indulge in with it being 31 square meters in size offering a king size bed, 55” smart TV, Nespresso Coffee Machine and stunning en suite with large shower and separate bath tub. 
The location of the executive rooms being on the upper floors of the hotel ensures that the views are simply breathtaking, overlooking Hyde Park, and whilst you’re there, play some I-Spy and see how many of London’s wonderful landmarks you can spot! It really is unbelievable. 

All rooms have exceptional high standard features and come complete with complimentary bottled waters, high speed WiFi and toiletries from The White company to name a few. The showers are all walk in and seem definitely a double in size. The beds complete with plush pillows and bedding are hands down the MOST comfortable I have ever slept in and enable you to have a great night’s sleep. The room has electric day and night blinds so you can be sure that privacy is always available as is ensuring that your sleep isn't ruined by any unwanted lights or sunshine, but at the same time enabling you to pick the correct ambiance for your stay. Alongside the complimentary bottled waters in the your room, there is also some luxury teas, coffee and biscuits which are perfect for a little snack.

If you fancy a bite to eat for breakfast, lunch and/or dinner, you won’t be running short for places as the Royal Lancaster London boasts not one but THREE restaurants to dine in ranging from Modern British, Afternoon Tea to Thai cuisine. The breakfast is the most extensive I have seen and dined at with over 80 items to choose from and to be honest, the quality just makes me speechless. The variety of food on offer makes you wonder if you need to go dining elsewhere but worth sitting and enjoying as every moment at breakfast was SO enjoyable - Exciting to taste all on offer, or try to! 
There are two bars for you to enjoy and wind down with a drink, champagne or even some tasty patisserie bites. 



The hotel is the ideal venue for a break away with family and friends or for business stays and the hotel isn’t short of platinum class hosting, with events attended by Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and many other royals. 
The hotel also famously hosted the after-party for The Beatles’ Yellow Submarine film premiere. 

I absolutely love everything about the Royal Lancaster London hotel and cannot recommend this hotel enough.

Mayfair is full of magic and sparkle indeed but when you come across hidden gems in the form of food and drink, that’s what makes London even more special.

The very best in BBQ, with love from Bodean's - Covent Garden, London

Barbecue food is slowly becoming the latest trend and hearing about the ultimate barbecue experience being Bodean's restaurant in London’s Covent Garden, I couldn’t wait to try it out and sample the delights on offer.  The Bodean’s Covent Garden is the newest of their 7 restaurants and the brand was founded in 2002 by Canadian restaurant entrepreneur Andre Blais. This is definitely a meat eaters paradise and a completely different dining experience to I literally feel walking into the restaurant that I am no longer in the UK and that I am in a buzzing Texan bar/restaurant. The restaurant is a style sophistication and definitely has a huge southern vibe to it. Aromas of the food catch you soon as you walk in and instantly have you wondering what’s on the menu.  Whether you like chicken, beef, pork or prawns; there is something here for you.  The menu is quite vast but at the same time each dish is very interesting and leaves you wondering what to actu...

The rise of the UK coffee culture

  There is no denying that the rise in coffee culture is growing rapidly year by year. It seems like the sociable and “in” thing to do nowadays is to go and grab a coffee with a bunch of friends and catch up. I have also noticed more and more that coffee is becoming quite the perfect commodity on a social level where it’s being enjoyed by many individuals such as businessmen, university students right through to mums and housewives.   The best thing about it is that coffee manufacturers are now producing a higher quality coffee that can be enjoyed in the comfort of your own home which makes it more enjoyable and more accessible and the best feeling to know that you can enjoy coffee shop style quality at home! There are many coffee brands out there but for me personally I feel that Nescafe are the leading coffee brand and are constantly striving to produce the best coffee for all occasions. There are the Nescafe Dolce Gusto pods which offer you coffee in many differen...
