The other night's hotel: Premier Inn, Borough Market, London

Very pleased with this place.  Not cheap at £190, but I'm not paying.  Its a pretty much standard Premier Inn, but the location is brilliant - just off the Thames.  The breakfast room (in neighbouring pub) looks t onto the Thames and St Pauls.  The Glove is three minutes away.  And the Golden Hynde.  Really interesting area too, which is gentrifying but still looks like yer actual London.

Shower good apart from being an on the wall dispenser.  Wifi ok

Last night's hotel: Park Inn by Radisson, Telford

Very good and very reasonable.  Good shower (lovely bathroom), comfy, good wifimthat it was easy to log on to.  Breakfast   Fine but a bit dry.

Tonight's hotel: IBIS Blackfriars, London

Its ok.  Wifi good.  Bathroom is one of those pod things which I'm not fond of.  Very quiet given the location.  Bar restaurant rather funky, if narrow

It's ok.

Last night's hotel: Hampton by Hilton, Birmingham

No food in evening, but next to a Domino pizza.  Breakfast rather dry, and not in the best part of town.  But good wifi, good plug points and very convenient for the tram.  So, fine

Tonight's hotel: Jury's Inn, Watford

Tonight's hotel; room 614 Novotel, Birmingham

Excellent wifi, cold though, shower not quite enough headroom, breakfast ok to good

Last nights hotel : Pentahotel, Birmngham

Achingly funky, awful wifi.

Golden Jubille Conference Hotel Glasgow

This is a weird one.  For a start it is a hospital.  Yes a hospital.  The hotel is round the back.  Second it doesn't have TVs, it has Macs.  Yes a Mac with freeview.

Only thing to object to is that the bedroom is too dark.  Like many other hotels it just does not have enough ambient light in the room.  Lots of lamps, but that it just a pain.

But very good overall.

Tonight's room

Secret location

Crown plaza Gerrards Cross room 307

As last week

Malmaison Birmingham

Very nice.  Excellent continental breakfast - not worth the extra for a full english.  Good free wifi.  Achingly cool, which means dark.  No car park so add on an extra £20.  Part of the Mailbox along with Harvey Nicks.

Holiday Inn Express, Exeter

Ok.  Tricky to get to though close to motorway.  Puzza ok.  Wifi free but poor.

Last nights hotel: Crowne Plaza Gerrard's Cross

Very comfortable, good free wifi, nice restaurant, gym if I had time to use it, but oddly cold (temperature not atmosphere).  Some free water, kit kat, soft drinks in minibar.  Which is nice.

Mercure Swindon

This week's hotel: Jury's Inn, Swindon

Gosh the Magic Roundabout is frightening!  No car park but one about 5 mins (actually across the road but the entrance us on the wrong side).  Cheap but breakfast not included.  Breakfast rather dried. Bit noisy.  Thin walls?  Shower curtain and wall mounted shampoo.  Variable water strength and temperature. The comped Internet is blisteringly fast. Its fine enough.  Travelodge next door.  No gym

Hotel 53 in York

Never stayed there but had many successful events there.  Sorry to hear they have been flooded.  Lovely people, lovely venue

A forgotten hotel: Jameirah Creekside hotel, Dubai
