"How did it strike you on arrival?A grand—though not intimidating—Georgian townhouse a couple of blocks from Belgravia, London’s poshest neighborhood, just south of Victoria Station. Nice. What’s the crowd like?Tech fiends. This was specifically built as one of the most technologically advanced hotels around. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.There’s a subdued, slightly masculine feel to the rooms with vast leather headboards, pinstriped quilts and wooden fittings for all those tech-friendly hubs, sockets and control panels. We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?The beds are extremely high-end Hästens ones, and even come with a “massage” setting (really). How about the little things, like mini bar, or shower goodies. Any of that find its way into your suitcase?Book directly, and the minibar is free. Everyone gets an iPad as an in-room concierge and a 36-inch HD, 3D TV. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.L’Occitane products and (of course) a TV embedded in the mirror. Maybe the most important topic of all: Wi-Fi. What’s the word?Free. Room service: Worth it?Room service breakfast. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.There’s a 103-inch screen in the lounge. What was most memorable—or heartbreaking—about your stay?Every guest gets a smartphone with unlimited data and international calls. Bottom line: worth it, and why?It’s a user-friendly hotel in a quiet—but extremely accessible—part of the city." - Julia Buckley
