If you missed the event, check out the website where they’ve reported on [...]

We’ve previously blogged about the Jubilee Afternoon Tea at the Andaz’s 1901 restaurant (reviewed on this blog) and the chance to win a gorgeous pair of CARR diamond stud earrings; so we decided to check it out at first hand last Monday during the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations. Afternoon tea at the Andaz has been themed [...]

One of the big trends in the hotel world at the moment is pop-ups. Some hotels have pop-up shops, others have pop-up bars or restaurants; and there are even pop-up hotels. It’s not just hotels; there are pop-up cinemas, like Films at the Yard which popped up in the East End earlier this year and pop-up shops [...]

We’ve previously reviewed the Andaz Liverpool Street’s quintessentially British 1901 Restaurant and featured its creative Diamond Jubilee afternoon tea. But the hotel also has a surprise for seafood enthusiasts. Catch is the Andaz’s fine dining restaurant specialising in sustainable fish.

I recently went on an afternoon tea tasting with Laura Porter of About.com London – but one with an unconventional and distinctly Nippon flavour. As a committed Japan-o-phile who has already blogged about London hotels for Japan addicts, I was keen to check out the Miyako sushi bar nestled inside the beautiful Andaz London. And with Laura being just about the [...]
