Macdonald Berystede Hotel & Spa, Ascot

Michelle Chenery reports on a stay at Macdonald Berystede Hotel & Spa, Ascot

What would event organisers want from a good hotel in close proximity to Ascot in Berkshire?
Certainly style, character, comfort, landscaped gardens, quality cuisine and pampering for delegates. Plus, of course, a choice of meeting facilities with the latest technology.
I found all that at the Macdonald Berystede Hotel & Spa, the closest 4-star property to Ascot and one that is easy to access from Heathrow Airport and is only an hour’s drive out of Central London. There is secured parking for up to 250 cars.

Sydney Paulden is a guest at Foxhill Manor, now an exclusive venue

I was dreaming that I was asleep in a four-poster bed in a huge bedroom in a beautiful manor house in the Cotswolds - and that I was lucky enough to have a house butler and chef.
Then I woke up – to find it wasn’t a dream. I was in Foxhill Manor!
Foxhill Manor was built in the Arts & Crafts architectural style in 1907. It was a stately home on hills overlooking the village of Broadway. It has just been totally refurbished and is now available as a country retreat for exclusive use.

Luton Hoo aerial shot

Roger St. Pierre reports from Luton Hoo Hotel Golf & Spa

If you are guided by the motto ‘Location, location, location’, then Luton Hoo Hotel Golf & Spa may fit the bill. It is a stately pile set less than a mile off the M1 motorway, five-minutes from half-hourly trains from London St. Pancras – the Eurostar terminal – and 10 minutes drive from London Luton airport.
This remarkable venue also has other elements in its favour, not least the fact that the opulence of the main mansion can make Buckingham Palace seem like a council house in comparison.

ITCM reports on a visit to Rosewood London, the group’s first hotel in Europe

Rosewood has arrived in Europe and it is making its presence felt.
Rosewood London Hotel is a better-than-5-star Grade-II listed property on High Holborn where the West End merges with the City. It is a hotel that impresses from the moment a guest enters the property’s own courtyards, a true luxury in an otherwise heavily congested area.
