Hotel Review: The Augustine, Prague, Czech Republic.

What's the Curbappeal?:
- historic building with modern luxurious interior
- centrally located to explore the sights of Prague
- cool bar to hang-out in

Recommended?: yes, but ask for a quiet room, as the tram-line passes by some rooms (ie mine).

V cool hotel bar. 


My room. Nice big comfy bed. 


Beautiful marble bathroom, with small flat-screen TV by the bath. 




Delicious in-room breakfast. 


Feature artwork in ceiling of the lobby. 


Light and airy restaurant, 


Corridor, just outside my room. 





Date of stay: September 2013. 

Restaurant Review: Julie's Holland Park, London

What's the Curbappeal?:
- chic neighbourhood restaurant that oozes history and glamour
- beautiful discreet collection of differently decorated dining areas
- outlook onto pretty little square, reminiscent of Italy
- probably the friendliest (and best) service ever received in a London restaurant 

Recommended: yes, most definitely. 


Beautiful outlook. 


Delicious brunch. 



Tasty cappuccino. 


One of the dining areas on the ground floor. 


One of the upstairs dining areas. 


Another very different dining area...


Basement bar (and dining area). Would love to return on a winters evening. 


A beautiful intimate dining area. 


Date of visit: Saturday in November 2013, for brunch.
