JimmyJam75 Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 Hi guys, I'm going to treat the wife to a couple of nights in London next week and I'm trying to find a nice hip / trendy / not-too-snobby hotel around covent garden or the sound bank maybe.. It's a last minute thing and I'm hoping for a good deal, I've already checked on the usual lastminte and laterooms web sites, but can anyone recommend somewhere really nice? Cheers guys, Jim Quote
M13KYF Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 are you going with her seeing as its a treat sorry couldn't resist Quote

M13KYF Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 this place is very hip. Interior is designed by Jasper Conran. A great designer. Not covent garden though but worth a look http://www.great-eastern-hotel.co.uk/ Quote

Not covent garden though but worth a look http://www.great-eastern-hotel.co.uk/ That open plan suite looks the biz. £600 a night tho is stoopid, that could rent you a house for a month Quote
