  • There's a reason The Dorchester (www.dorchestercollection.com/l...) is considered to be the best hotel in the world. It starts with the amazing people who work there, their commitment to guest satisfaction is unequaled. Then, it includes some of the most beautiful, most luxurious accommodations in London. Here is a tour of one of the hotel's iconic Dorchester Suites, where I had the great pleasure of staying for a week in January. With sweeping views over Green Park it was just a wonderful place to be. The hotel's location on Park Lane in Mayfair also puts you within a few minutes walk of Oxford Street shopping or Buckingham Palace for visiting.

      It should be clean ... its a five star hotel. Been there it really is special, art nouveau deco not cheap but luxury with character opposite park. But the staff make it ... they make effort to be professional but at the same time like being home .. many choose the modern Hilton nearby .. same price but Dorchester was a favourite with Holywood stars, theatre people, writers more arty feel .. and if you ask staff they have many bits of history about the hotel.

      Who am I to judge religious law in another country? And sharia law in different forms is in many, many countries, including popular tourist places like in Bali in your country, the Phillipines and the Maldives. I think travelers should respect the laws, religion and customs of the place they visit, not try to impose their own ideas. If you don't agree with a country's religion or laws, don't visit there.
      I know Brunei is a beautiful country with warm, friendly people and a fascinating history and I do hope to visit someday.

    • @FreddySherman
      @FreddySherman  5 лет назад +1

      In short, yes. I like MO Hyde Park, but it was outdated and needed the renovation it had. I think it's still closed after the fire. I haven't stayed at Langham or Lanesborough but they're nowhere at the level of The Dorchester. I like 45 Park Lane and have stayed there several times but it's much more low-key and private than the Dorchester.

      As you mention that, I tend to agree but it didn't feel that way. I've stayed in that suite three times now and it just has a lot of separation which can be good if you want space from your traveling companion! It's very spacious and feels more apartment-like than a hotel suite.

      Two answers. First is some people are very rich and want to stay at a hotel that is as nice as their mansion. Second is that it can be cheaper to stay in a luxury hotel than to own a house and have maids, cooks, housekeepers, etc. If I was really rich, I might not want to own a house or houses, I just might want to stay in luxury hotels around the world and travel to different cities to stay for a while.

      You are very wrong about most of what you wrote. You should do research and learn more, educate yourself. The country has a high standard of living, it's not a place where "most people in the country don't have even basic needs met." That's not correct. You seem to have a problem with Islamic law as many countries have Sharia law. It's not the Sultan's rules, it's Sharia / Islamic law and he chooses to follow it in his own country. 50 countries around the world follow Sharia law, it's not something unique to Brunei.
