AJ - I took the mrs to London for her 21st, so wanted it to be one to remember. Now i looked at a few 5 star places like the Ritz etc(to be honest once you get into the centre of London they are minimum of 4 Star) 1 thing you should look at is in a lot of the 5star places you need to wear a suit and dickie bow for the meals. Now where i wanted it to be something else i thought this was a bit over the top and not us.

I finally found a place called the Langham just off of Oxford street in the west end. it was a spot on place and 5 Star not to pricey and even had a few celebs staying there. We shared a lift with Paula Ratcliff and turned out she was staying 2 doors away from us. Also bumped into 2 the bill stars around oxford street. Also places like selfridges are quite close which i'd imagime she'd wanna see. Also most of the big theatres are near there for all the shows.

Anyway in short i couldnt recomend this place enough we were treated like kings. It might be the thing your looking for. I think that when u go u need to think about where the hotel is positioned also as u dont wanna be to far out from the main things to see.

hope this helps let me know if u wanna know more
