From the Raval hotel 360 pool terrace…
May 20
We were in desperate need of some lounging by a pool, and our self-catering flat not having a terrace, I booked us into the Grand Hotel Central, who supposedly has one of the best roof terrace in the city… and an infinity pool! Sunny & warm day at its best. We booked using the great Mr & Mrs Smith and one of the advantages was that we were able to check out as late as 3pm the next day and enjoy the pool a lot more.

For the second day in Barcelona, we decided to stay at a much nicer hotel, namely ME Barcelona on the Diagonal avenue, another hotel booked thru Mr & Mrs Smith, which saw us being upgraded from a Supreme Room City View (between the 7th and 20th floors), to a Level Room City View (floors 20-28) and get a room on the 27th floor.
And if you’ve ever wondered what may be the view from the 27th floor, here is an inkling…

Having booked two nights in Square, Brighton over New Year thru Mr & Mrs Smith, I had the great surprise to be upgraded from a double King room, to the exclusive reverse penthouse suite. A lovely end of the year 2009, and beginning of the year 2010… Thanks again guys!

Mexican themed hotel in South London, with a difference, check their chocolate and DVD collection. Also a nice honesty bar for late nights drinking. Website here.

The nearby Holkham Hall has a deer park, where the male deers seemed to have felt the heavy rain coming way before everyone else, and gathered under a big tree.

Coming back from the Bahamas to the US was a bit of a reality check for us, but all in all, the friendly staff, as well as the facilities of this hotel, made that we hardly left the place. The Standard, previously known as the Lido Spa Hotel, is as its old name indicates, also a spa. And what a spa! More pictures here.
