Red Carnation Hotels Employs Snooty British Travel Columnist for Podcasts And We Love It

July 28, 2008 at 2:20 PM | by | Comments (0)

"Omg, that Roger Collis is hysterical! I totally hate toilet paper folded into a point too!"

Nothing turns us on more than a British accent, but what really gets us going is a person with a British accent talking about hotels. And if you want to drive us crazy, this person will be discussing "what I love to hate about hotel rooms."

Red Carnation Hotels must have read our Match.com profile, because they've enlisted Roger Collis, a travel columnist with the International Herald Tribune, to do just that, via a new podcast feature available on its web site.

London Can't Quit Fashion Week

February 13, 2008 at 1:37 PM | by | Comments (0)

Fashion Week has gone across the pond to London this week and there's one thing the Brits have that New York Fashion Week doesn't--namely London Fashion Weekend, a ticketed, four-day event taking place February 20-24 on the lawns of the Natural History Museum in South Kensington, offering designer fashion at discounted prices.

What a wonderful time of year February must be for London hoteliers--if you think it's impossible to find a decent hotel rate there on any given night, imagine the scene when its crowded with worldwide fashionistas eager to score the next hot number from Anuk Harvey or Belle & Bunty. With a potential sputtering economy, New York should follow the cue.

Of course, during that weekend, there are hotel deals to be had. All three Red Carnation Hotels there--Kensington's The Milestone Hotel; 41, near Buckingham Palace (pictured above); and The Egerton House Hotel in Knightsbridge--are offering rates that start at about $590, which include one night in a luxury double room; full English breakfast; a welcome drink; and two tickets to the London Fashion Weekend event.

The fashion conscious should opt to stay at 41, one of the "official" hotels of London Fashion Week and a trendier option than the rest.
