High Fashion - London Fashion Week

I admit to being more than a little excited by the imminent arrival of London Fashion Week, and although my friends and certainly my wife, will find this prospect more than a tad ‘amusant’, I just think that this is THE most fascinating event on the UK cultural calendar.

Terrific Tooley Street

Wow, pizza and beer – Flying Butler could not have gone for a more practical, relaxing and enjoyable way to showcase their new London Bridge property than by inviting everyone over for a visit! Check out that Shard!

A Swedish Burn - Understanding Burns Night

Being from Sweden and therefore only having our crazy Viking celebrations such as eating loads of pickled herring, dancing around the Midsummer pole and having a daily Fika at 4pm, I have to say that I am still very much a foreigner to some of the traditional UK celebrations such as the upcoming Burn's Night and Supper!

Marietjie's Great-ful 8!

Looking back on 2015, we saw some absolutely great apartments…and sharing our experiences with you is really important to us so with that in mind let’s have a quick recap of some of the brilliant apartments we reviewed during the year:

A year in review - 2015

So here we are again at the end of one year and the start of a new one and I can’t help but notice that the saying ‘time flies’ gets truer with every passing year! 2015 seems to have gone by in the blink of an eye however looking back it also appears that we’ve managed to pack a lot in!

Luxury Serviced Apartments In Chelsea Review

It’s been 9 years since my first visit to The Apartments in Chelsea but I can still remember the day of my interview like it was yesterday…for the Assistant General Manager’s position that I was offered the very same day!

If you’re planning to come to the UK for some Christmas shopping this December then you’re in for a real treat.  There’s so many festive events on all over Britain that you’ll be spoilt for choice no matter where you stay.  In fact, there’s so much to do that we just can’t fit it all in, but to give you some great starting ideas here’s our list of the top 5 Christmas events you absolutely can’t miss.  

London Christmas Shopping - Prestige 2 day extravaganza

So in the month of utter foolishness and retail madness that is December, we’re taking you on a very special two day shopping spree in magnificent London town! And better than that…we’re going to plan your route so well that you could max out on your credit card and still have the bailiffs round for tea. Are you quite sure you’re ready for this?

The History of James Watt

"James Watt, I never saw such an idle boy; take a book or employ yourself usefully; for the last hour you have not spoken a word, but taken off the lid of that kettle and put it on again, holding now a cup and now a silver spoon over the steam, watching how it rises from the spout, and catching the drops of water it turns into. Are you not ashamed to spend your time in this way?"

Top 5 alternative destinations to Central London

Working in the UK market we’re constantly being told that London is too expensive and/or too small! If you’re willing to be just a little bit more adventurous in the areas you consider then there are some locations which are surprisingly well connected and commuter friendly to get you into the centre...and they can offer huge benefits in terms of budget or space, or both!  Here are my top 5 suggestions out of central London.

Serviced Apartments in Newcastle visited by a New Zealander!

It’s not often that I get the chance to sneak away for a couple of nights to explore a new city now that I’ve joined the Prestige crew, so of course when the offer presented itself, I jumped at the chance to go up to Newcastle!

How Technology is being used in Serviced Apartments

Madonna famously once sang that ‘we live in a material world’ and although I realise I may be showing my age somewhat, I do think it’s high time that we updated her modernist mantra to read ‘we live in a technological world’!

Review of a Smart Serviced Apartment in London

This month we’re focusing on technology, which created a very good excuse for me to revisit the rather swish Rosebery Aparthotel, this time taking newbie Silvia (who joined us back in May) with me!

Children of the Mud

So 5 of our Prestige-ers got lured into doing something called a ‘Tough Mudder’. And what exactly IS one of those ? Coz it sounded to me like the type of organisation/event that no-one other than some horrible cliquey gang of possessed gym bunnies or mental squaddies would ever want to belong to, let alone partake of. And actually, that proved to be about the size of it. Anyway, I asked the girls to tell me about their most memorable moments...so here we go!
