Having spent a few yearson the road, whenever I am away from home, I prefer to try and find private hotels or guest houses to stay in, rather than chains. Personally I find them more personable and more fun.
Just before Christmas I was spending a couple of days in London seeing our LightScanner customer at CRUK and ELISpot reader customers at Imperial College, VMA Weybridge and IAVI.
I ended up staying at the Falcon Inn, Denham Village (hoem to the late great Sir John Mills). If you ae looking for somewhere a bit different then the Falon is highly recommended (www.falconin.biz). Good beer, uncomplicated and reasonably priced menu and a really well appointed room.
If you are looking for somewhere a bit different, drop me a line.In the meantime some of my other favouites around the country are:
Hassop Hall Hotel, Bakewell. Fantastic family run country house - http://www.hassophallhotel.co.uk/
