Claridges, Bbc2 Documentary

[DTCwordfan]

My mind of hotel.

Yours?

[humbersloop]

kind of?

[shoota]

I prefer something a little more upmarket.

[sherrardk]

Not really, not. I'd friendly enough for me. Love the programme though.

[DTCwordfan]

Oh dear...yes sloopy, "my kind of"

[sherrardk]

I will do that first bit again, 'not really, not kid friendly enough for me'.

[Psybbo]

Was it interesting? I recorded Joanna Lumly instead amd OH had the remote, so football appeared

[bednobs]

?6.5k per night

[humbersloop]

we all have to rough it sometimes shoota

[silliemillie]

Even if i was a multi millionaire I could not justify spending that money on a room.

[DTCwordfan]

Fab. The opulence and attention to detail impressive.

(I used to be a secret shopper for an American luxury chain, but this is a cut above what they asked for from our inspections, so [i[ very[i] interesting).

[askyourgran]

I need some new slippers and a robe, but not at that price.

[DTCwordfan]

you could millie - as it all becomes relative to your (immense) income......you adapt into it.

I have placed a co-director of mine in the past into Claridges, mind you at a low for London, for £130 a night......a steal. He loved it (surprisingly)..

[sherrardk]

There was one on a while back about another of the posh hotels (it had just had a massive re-furb), also v interesting.

[shoota]

Is it a suitable Humbersleep then?

[humbersloop]

yeah, ayg, but if you left your tiara outside the door with the shoes, it'd be reset and polished in the morning

[humbersloop]

if glamping in a yurt is an acceptable slumber hoop, it'll do for a night's doss I s'pose..

..if someone can get that barstard[i pea out from under the mattress [i]again!!]

I always go for quirky hotels DT. Church Street Hotel, Camberwell was a recent fun one.

[silliemillie]

It is a lovely place but I get embarassed when people fuss over me all the time, I suppose its better than not caring.

The other night we went for a meal and in the 2 hours we were there the waitress came over 5 times to ask if we were enjoying the meal which was a bit over the top.

[askyourgran]

My security guard has to stay with the tirara humber, but I expect the service there to be passable.

[gness]

We stayed in a cheap motel in Las Vegas. On our second trip a friend treated us to a suite in The Mirage....I much preferred the motel. Guess I'm just a cheap date. :-(
