Alastair Sawday's special places to stay, London - TOM BELL

This is an unusual guide to London. With excellent maps, colour photos, witty & informative write-ups and lots of information it is a great addition to the much-loved Special Places to Stay series. All the entries we have selected for the book exude style, conviviality and value for money. Our approach is unusual. There are no set rules, no interminable checklists and no hard and fast criteria for inclusion. We look for what we like, we celebrate the unusual, the beautiful and the individual. We applaud the small hoteliers and B&B owners who show unstinting kindness and generosity.
