    Oh my goodness! As an American I thought the cookie weighed 25 pounds, which is outrageous. But costing 25 pounds is equally outrageous! Love your vlogs!!❤

      I nearly fell off my chair when I realised a biscuit/cookie costs AUD $50.00. Way too rich for my budget...

      The £25.00 cookie is Non-GMO and not from Wal-Mart. Also, it’s VAT inclusive and tipping is not expected. 🍪

      You're not very wrong. That cookie probably weighs £25😂. It's interesting to see how many businesses in London have positioned themselves to separate the rich from their money

    As for the name ‘Knightsbridge’, I once read that when leaving to fight in the crusades, knight’s would cross the bridge mentioned in the video and say farewell to London. As a sign of respect, they would remove their helmet or raise their visor, which is where the tradition of saluting comes from.

    About a year ago I went to the mandarin oriental hotel and let me tell you, this place is incredible! The staff are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met, the pool, spa and workout room are absolutely fabulous, and the food was delicious! My family and I plan on going back within the next year! I highly recommend! ❤

    I find myself less and less homesick, as your vlog brings me home every Friday.❤ Even better, my American husband says "it's Hannah Friday!" to remind me to stop and send it to the screen. It's very realistic, as you're on an 85" UHD flatscreen, so you're truly larger than life. 🥰 Never stop being you, you bring sooo much joy! 😘

    Hello, I find myself pausing the video so I can map out where you are and where all the amazing buildings, stores and sights are. Every large city has it's problems but I just cannot wait to get over and explore London. I was born in Toronto and although it has a multitude of huge buildings, none have the character and history attached like London's do. Have a great weekend!

    Sloan Street, we stayed in Sloan Square when we there last November. Did see a few super cars zipping down the streets. The architecture around London is so rich in character and variety. Nice to see how well the traditional architecture is preserved and integrated with the new. Thanks for the Knightsbridge tour as always Hannah!

    Thanks for another fabulous walking tour, Hannah! I'd be really curious about the Mandarin afternoon tea as I went to the Mandarin in Tokyo once and it was an interesting fusion of Chinese, Japanese and British style. Also, that Russian restaurant looked charming: if you ever have a chance to take us with you to that restaurant, it would be fun, too!

    Hannah, please do go to the Berkeley for afternoon Pret-a-Portea! I went last year for my belated 60th birthday and it was the absolute best afternoon tea I’ve ever had - and I’ve had a few! It beats the Savoy, the Athenaeum and the Ritz, to name a few in my opinion. It’s expensive but I think it’s worth it. You will enjoy!

    Such a beautiful area. The buildings are so lovely. The prices of the housing is not surprising but once you pay for the actual property you've got other charges on top of it so it will have to be a dream forever. Cant believe that it's September saw Christmas items in our supermarket the other day and it's getting earlier every year. Looking forward to next week. Have a great weekend and fantastic week. ❤❤

    Loved this vlog. I stayed in an Airbnb in Knightsbridge last summer, in one of those lovely white brick houses in a quiet square. There was a key for the private garden in the park across the street. It was so peaceful and nice. Great area to walk around shop explore and enjoy the beautiful architecture and history. Great video Hannah, as usual thanks again for a visit back to Knightsbridge.

And thanks again for showing us Harvey Nic’s restaurant on the roof, was always nice too. Thanks for this tour, love the architecture and homes. Used to slide into Harrod’s side door and go to their bakery for those big donuts and come back to my hotel and feast on them. Thanks for the tour of the mews homes, so lovely.
