This hotel is undoubtedly the best I have ever stayed in. Here's why...
We booked this hotel as a top secret hotel through lastminute.com, paying £86 for the room for the night of Saturday 26th Septmeber 2009. For anyone who isn't familiar with lastminute's top secret system you basically get a star rating and description, but not the name of the hotel before you book.

regarded as a rural retreat. Built between 1764 and 1766, its original Anglican parishioners were farmers located on the northern fringes of the colonial port of New York. Today, the chapel with its churchyard forms a small green oasis of the past amidst the hustle and bustle of modern New York City's financial district.
Some would claim that on September 11, 2001, the fact that an ancient sycamore tree stood between the small church and the World Trade Center--and took the brunt of the forces released by the collapsing buildings--was no accident. The tree fell with spreading branches that acted as a shield to preserve the church from what should have been certain destruction. Since that time, those caught up in the events that followed 9-11 at Ground Zero have bonded with St. Paul's to form a remarkable model for humanitarian conduct during ...
