  • What does £500 a night get you in a London hotel right now? I'm showing you the Junior Terrace Suite at The Standard Hotel in London, a new-to-the-city hotel that (usually) is THE place to be seen, Londoners looking for a vibe love going to the Standards' swanky and hip bars and rooftop restaurant... we booked in hoping to go to those places but well... you know the deal.
    In the video I also take you around the area to see what it's all about-- Kings Cross has a few things going on and my friend Kelli and I take you with us.
    See what £500 can get you a night right now in London, in this case, a discounted hotel room in Kings Cross with its own private terrace and TUB🛁 *This room was booked and paid for with my own money.
    This video is part of a series where I give you a tour/test out London hotel rooms while they're a bit cheaper than normal, so you can decide if you want to book for your trip to London, whenever that happens.

    7:14 - I am so glad to hear someone else talk about how many hotels are being built or renovated using a mixed modern/retro vibe. It works sometimes but when it fails, it fails spectacularly. We stayed at a new hotel recently in the States and it was similar to The Standard. Wasn't a fan. Sadly, we did not have a terrace-tub. But we did have a door that opened easier than yours. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Not sure if you’ve done this or not, but sometime could you talk about family friendly hotels in London that have two queen sized beds or at least a queen/king and a sofa bed? Seems like they are really hard to find in London. Just curious how most families with kids do it without having to get two adjoining rooms. I’ve found only a few that are decently priced so far. Thanks.

    • @loveandlondon
      @loveandlondon  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's not common in London or really in Europe to have two full eds so you're likely going to have to do a private hostel room, or a room that you can ask for a cot if you have one kid. Otherwise, two adjoining rooms or a suite should do the trick.

    The terrace is amazing but it is just ridiculous how small a junior suite for 500£ a night in London still is when you know in which places you can stay for that amount of money elsewhere. It is a shame that a city like this is that expensive for hotels. For example in Vienna you will get for 400£ a suite with a terrace and at least 70m² in the most luxe 5 star hotels. Compared to this this suite in london looks like a 100£ hotel room if there wouldn't be the stunning terrace with the tub. But maybe it is also because of the interior design that it doesn't look that luxe for that amount of money. Your series during this pandemic is awesome and I hope you can enjoy all your nights at those hotels and even you are filming still feel a bit relaxed.

    • @loveandlondon
      @loveandlondon  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      London is just a really expensive place for hotels because the demand is usually there and it's just an expensive city. The size of the room was actually huge for London standards lol! Thanks so much for watching!

    Hello! I know it has been awhile, but I thought that there was a more recent video (in the past year) where you talked about a service that can help you find a flat with online tours and walk through's, can you please tell me the name of the service? I want to move there for a few months starting at the end of the year. Or maybe you have another suggestion? Thanks!

    • @loveandlondon
      @loveandlondon  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hmmmm not one that does just virtual tours. Don't take a flat until you've actually seen it in person. Watch this video for help: th-cam.com/video/ALHd7xotT4c/w-d-xo.html&t

      @ElusiveTy 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      As mentioned above, it's actually a sizeable room by the standards that are typical in London, this is the case for a lot of large cities, hotels tend to be quite small for a relatively expensive price. Major cities also have extremely inflated hotel prices, I'd even recommend an Airbnb instead in a lot of major cities that charge through the ass like London, LA, Paris, New York City, etc.
