Hunter S. Texas: Berkeley Trash


Although Bejewelled enjoys the retracting roof pool at the Berkeley and Boris gets inebriated at the hotel's Blue Bar, Hunter S. Texas feels differently after a trashy stay there:

"Re: London's Berkeley

Despite its still spectacular pool, the Berkeley feels tired at best. The staff's friendly demeanorr did little to offset the so-so room with its faded fabrics and unimpressive side street view. I was most surprised to find small pieces of trash littering the hall outside our door. No wonder the hotel's rate is significantly lower than the neighboring and far-superior Lanesborough."

W4 is still investigating but thinks it is quite possible that the hallway refuse is the result of Hunter's previous nights shenanigans to which he has no recollection."
