Corus Hyde Park Hotel

Friday, September 11th, 2009

I fell in love with Hyde Park about 3 years ago when I studied abroad for college at Oxford. Now, I am bout 28 years old and I managed to travel back there with my best friend. Instead of the President Hotel, we decided to book a double room at the Corus Hotel. This hotel was in a great location for anyone looking to stay central.

There was plenty of activities to participate in when we stayed at this hotel. We drank coffee in the morning in the café and at night we enjoyed fine dining and drinks at the bar. This made things very convenient. Of course we did take the time to enjoy some of the great nightlife that Hyde Park and London had to offer.

We only managed to stay a few nights in the Corus Hotel, but it sure felt like we got a lot more than what we actually paid for. London is known for having great hotels for great prices. You will not find anything like the Corus Hotel Hyde Park in the United States for less than $100 a night. We managed to pay only about $75 per night.

Adventures at the Ramada Hyde Park

Friday, September 11th, 2009

I got stuck in London for a couple of nights due to bad weather and cancelled flights to the United States. I decided to just book a room for a few nights until the weather cleared. I had some extra time as well as extra money so I stayed at the Ramada Hyde Park, which was a great 4 star hotel. Due to the bad weather, I did my best to get out and about but when the rain came down too hard, I retreated to my room. I enjoyed watching British cable and even ordering a movie or two. I ordered hamburgers from the room service menu and just did my best to relax. I had great views if I ever got bored and wanted to see what the world was doing outside. I gazed out the windows for hours at least before deciding where I should get to. The hotel clerks and staff were very friendly. I asked that all of my calls be put on hold for a day just so that I could have some time to myself. I never heard the phone ring once in fact during my entire stay. Looks like the staff here really knows how to get the message across! At the end of this adventure I must admit I was a little sorry to have to leave so soon. The next time I find the extra time I will make my way back to the Ramada Hyde Park. I can see that there is still a lot of shopping and relaxing that needs to be done on my end
