Movie Set Hotel :: The Luton Hoo in "Four Weddings and a Funeral"

The Luton Hoo Hotel in England doesn't have this name just to inspire bad "Luton Who?" jokes. Apparently "hoo" means "hill" in old Saxon so really it's the plain old Luton Hill Hotel. But it's got a great selling point that it was one of the reception venues in Hugh Grant's Four Weddings and a Funeral--we definitely want to tread in Hugh's footsteps.
The UK Independent reviewed the Luton Hoo recently and had mostly positive feedback to give. It's only been a hotel for a short time, after being a neglected private house for many years, so most of it's newly renovated--although 1980s touches like peach-colored paint, weird stripes and gold taps remain, which we're not too keen on.
