I stayed at a top notch hotel in central London, but missed my departure flight, so I had to spend another night in the city. I booked a room at St George, just because it was so cheap (a fraction of the price I payed at my top notch), so I didn’t expect much. However, I must say: the staff was friendlier and more accommodating, the bed more comfortable (good mattress, not those ridiculous oversized pillows), and all the amenities you could wish for. The entire visit cost about the same as just the breakfast at my previous stay, and then a perfectly adequate breakfast was included here. I do think this is a cautionary tale with a moral attached, next time I’ll go straight for the option with more value.
