Very rarely are you greeted in a hotel with a hot towel. Very rarely do you stay in a place so luxurious that leaving the hotel seems counterproductive and staying in the hotel to soak up every ounce of hotel luxury is a much better choice.

London City Suites by Montcalm, also known as the Brewery is perhaps the most underrated luxury hotel in London. You’ll be greeted by a doorman, who will warmly open the door. A concierge will take your bag. A porter will offer you a hot towel as you check in. Checking in will be seamless and uncomplicated. A porter will escort you to your room. There isn’t even an option of taking yourself, as you have bags. The impression you get in the first five minutes is never undermined.

Technology enhances your stay

There is a complimentary mini tablet on loan to guide you to a wide variety of locations. You can choose the preferred aroma of your room. No kidding. For the first time in your life, you may actually want to read the guide book or information book about your hotel room, purely to experiment with all buttons.
