If you want a decent night sleep then I don't recommend the Marriot County Hall................ if it isn't a resident there then it's one of the residents in the Premier Inn at the back that sets off the fire alarm by leaving the bathroom door open when they take a bath or shower - out of 4-5 visits to both the Marriot or the Premiere Inn (depends on who is paying, me or the company!) I have ended up standing in the street at 3am in the pouring rain waiting for the fire brigade to search the hotel and smash a couple of doors in! If I'm paying then I stay elsewhere now - when the company is paying I stay at the Premier Inn at Tower Bridge or Hanger Lane

.........I didn't know you knew Tim so well Marc, you obviously do, right? I don't think Tim is in the habit of writing fiction on such dull subjects as hotel stays in Londonian........not "complete nonsense" as you state, rather his personal experience whilst he stayed there, it happens.

I personally think Marriott's are S t, but then I have stayed at the Ritz and thought that was S t also........mind you, there were some fine fillies in that night and no they weren't chargeable  L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!
