Welcome to our April newsletter 2025…Happy Easter

In this newsletter you will see ideas for hotels in London, Lyne near Chertsey and Leamington Spa. Additionally, we are including a selection of restaurants and venues in London for you to consider.

Over the years we have visited hundreds of Hotels and Venues in the UK and overseas, and Tanya has the opportunity in March to sample the hospitality of the Sarova Hotels group.

Tanya experienced The Rembrandt in London, Sir Christopher Wren in Windsor and the Bull Hotel at Gerrards Cross. She was also incredibly lucky to see Le Cirque du Soleil “Corteo” at the Royal Albert Hall.

This time we will concentrate on The Rembrandt Hotel, London

An excellent location just a 5/10-minute walk from Harrods & 10 minutes’ walk to the Royal Albert Hall.

The Natural History Museum, Science Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum are all opposite to the hotel.

Food was lovely, staff attentive and friendly, the hotel is lovely too and clean and particularly good value for money. Inside the décor is in keeping with the age and style of the building.
