London Is The Place For Me Vol.1 (Trinidadian Calypso In London 1950-1956) - Various Artists

Advantages: Brilliant rooms, service, food, internet etc
Disadvantages: expensive!!!

...do have are of a high quality. What is near the Grosvenor? To me the most outstanding thing about the hotel, is that is right opposite the Apollo Victoria Theatre which is home to my favourite musical ever- Wicked. (Review to come soon...). For me this was a plus point as we were going to see it and it meant we could leave our hotel at say 7.20 and still make it in time for the 7.30 show. (We didn?t do this though..we were there way too early!...what can I say? I was excited!!!). The Victoria Palace Theatre home to Billy Elliot is also only a two minute walk from the hotel, which is great. I?d recommend both these musicals. Buckingham Palace is a short walk away too which is a great place to visit and there are often events going on at or around the palace. The hotel is also within walking distance of the London Eye, Covent... Read review

Advantages: A good mix of songs
Disadvantages: Doesnt help you get through the housework

...A cd thats a couple of years old now but still fun to listen to. I mean this cd says its meant to help you through the housework but I personally dont think it really does,if anything it distracts you,because you just start singing along to all the great tracks this album has to offer, you get caught up in the music and completely lose track of what you were doing - maybe a good thing in a way :-) Housework vol 1 is a double album that has some cracking songs that you just dont seem to hear on the radio anymore such as The Beach Boys - Help Me Rhonda and Don McLeans - American Pie. The songs on this album just make you feel good and really help to lift your spirits,but I honestly think its marketed wrong,this is a feel good album for anyone just not people doing the housework.I dont think the title of the album really represents...

Advantages: Central location, nice room, good breakfast
Disadvantages: Heating on overdrive

...Last weekend I went to stay in London with my dad for four nights in the Mornington Hotel. It is a Best Western Hotel, although each of the companies hotels is independantly owned and operated. Dad booked the room over the internet. He booked a twin room for four nights. There was a special offer available, four nights for the price of three, and he paid around £200 for the room, including breakfast. The reason he chose this hotel was partly due to the offer and partly due to its location. The hotel is located in central London, close to Hyde Park. It is about 2 minutes walk from Lancaster Gate underground station. Buses pass by frequently, and a taxi from Leicester Square cost us £9. We arrived in Kings Cross station and took the tube to Lancaster Gate. The man in the ticket office at Lancaster gate station gave us... Read review
