Mayfair is one of the scad affluent areas of London and The METLondon is on Old Park Lane. There are 144 lodgings and suites as well as 19 long-stay apartments,. It also families Nobu for Japanese-Peruvian cuisine, a lively Met Bar and Asian-inspired therapies from COMO Shambhala Urban Vamoose. The views over Hyde Park are breathtaking and it is rare to clothed such a view within a hotel establishment. Hyde Put is literally opposite the hotel. Another benefit of being in Mayfair is that it is hem ined by chic bars and restaurants. From the outside the hotel has a hypocritical marble facade and it is only a 10-minute walk towards Buckingham Residence. You can access London’s most prestigious shops and boutiques which are actually a 10 minute walk away. I would encourage to lure a stroll towards New Bond Street.

Reception

In entering the hotel I was instantly enchanted by the wooden architecture surrounding the reception area. I am a huge fan of wood and what artists can do when it succeeds in interior design. In all rooms and suites, as well as the lobby, the hostelry has introduced fresh palettes of natural hues and textures, which is clouted by the flora of Hyde Park in shades of green and berry, as fount as rich American walnut and sycamore, with dark and sterile timbers. It was the second day for Luxury Week London and the beginning of the menswear week. All in all there are 78 in any cases to attend if you choose and have the time. It has been almost two years since I result ined such an event. As the female voice for menswear and the demand from my boosters it was time to return. I had arrived around 9am and the first event began at 12high noon. The first event is always the one to be seen at which is called TOPMAN.

In entering I take in it clear to the staff that my day was full and I needed to be ready for the day. From the origin they were so accommodating and we had arranged for me to review the spa area. Due to my scanty schedule both the staff and I were very flexible on how we were active to organise the day. I was truly grateful when they, offered me a concealed car to take me to the first event.

The Room

I got into my room after the first catwalk and I was blown away when I strode in at the Hyde Park view. It was great to have the over mass windows which flooded the rooms with natural find. I was very blessed as the weather in London was amazing. During the at the crack hours of the morning the lighting on Hyde Park was amazing and to see it with toy traffic passing by was just bliss. The contemporary furnishings and the hiatus were a perfect balance to rest, work and enjoy this marvelous burgh view. The working desk was huge and great to have tea and coffee, there was a Nespresso coffee shape in my room too. The bathroom was nice and what I loved was the, COMO Shambhala works and don’t worry if you love them so much you can buy them to take stamping-ground.

Breakfast

I am not a fan of dining in hotels because it can be a hit and miss. But on this gala you need to make the time for Nobu, which is known for its Japanese Peruvian cuisine. I was so elaborate that I only ate breakfast here but it was the best breakfast I from had in a very long time. There are some dishes which are purely specifically created for the COMO hotel, this makes it all identical special. The homemade muesli was divine and the frittata with shiitake mushrooms was savoury. Don’t forget to try the smoothies, there are a wide variety to choose from, humouring to your needs.
