A London Hotel Restaurant – Should You Try It?
<< London Hotel Review Samantha Brown's "London Now!" >>
If you have never been to London, more than likely you have heard that the “food is terrible” especially in a London Hotel Restaurant. Well I’m here to tell you that nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, London is a world-class city and some of the best meals I have ever had were enjoyed there! And since I’m a New Yorker, that’s saying something!
That being said – you still need to do your homework. Of course, you can always ask the concierge at your hotel – they are usually very good sources of info on restaurants, etc. plus they can get you the reservation (or booking as they prefer to call it there).
Here are a couple of suggestions to start out with:
Try the restaurant in your hotel – chances are it’s pretty good. Most hoteliers make their best profits from food and drinks so they will be trying to win you over. Ask the concierge his honest opinion of the on-site restaurants – he will be honest with you and will appreciate your asking his opinion.
Take along a Zagat’s London. Zagat’s is the best source of up-to-date information on an unbiased level for restaurants around the world. They started in New York and were so successful there, they branched out. When I lived in London and had to entertain in top top restaurants, Zagat’s was the bible!
Thank you for your tip, I will try that for my next trip.
