The French Riviera in the heart of Marylebone

Those of you longing for enjoying the charm of the French Riviera and London's humming city life will never again need to pick between the two. In a strong and very chic move, The Mandeville Hotel has as of late worked together with Maison Christian Lacroix, bringing the vibe of the celebrated coastline to the fifth floor of their Marylebone inn. The dispatch of their staggering new rooms, consistent with Lacroix' colorful style, changed the lodging into a genuine couture treat. 

I was fortunate to be a piece of the experience, as I delighted in a fairly breathtaking staycation at the Jewel Box room, a piece of the Riviera Rooms accumulation. 

With each of the four rooms intended to recount an alternate story, from the tropical feel of Jardin Exotique emphasizd with Julian Chichester's furniture to the fabulously sultry Midnight Blue, Jewel Box makes you feel as though you truly strolled inside a gems box. This does not shock anyone as the room stylistic layout was propelled by Grace Kelly's broadly stolen Cartier gems. 

From bejeweled bedding and valuable stone accents decorating the organizers, Jewel Box is effectively the most alluring expansion to the French Riviera accumulation but then, it remains consistent with the zone's certain appeal. Pop your head through the inclined window ignoring Marylebone's housetops, as the limited smircesh of fireplace smoke advance towards the London sky, and you'll see the city as portrayed in F.H. Burnett's turn of the century books. 

Ideal for a staycation, the time I spent at Mandeville was exactly what I expected to revive my batteries. Richly eccentric, the inn holds one of London's most looked for after postcodes. Encompassed by informal breakfast spots dotted crosswise over James St, with West End, Oxford Street and the in vogue boutiques of Bond St only a stone discard, you absolutely won't be shy of things to do. The best part? You'd don't occasion need to get on the tube – Mandeville truly is in the focal point of everything! In the event that you have a craving for having a tranquil one, escape to the lodging's mixed drink bar (think 1950s New York) for a nightcap… Although with their grimy martini's named the best nearby by Marie Claire and the beverages menu bragging a fairly great choice of mixed drinks (Monkey Shoulder mixed with caramel popcorn anybody?), you may wind up remaining longer! 

That being stated, once I got my bubbly fix, my most loved piece of the stay was wrapping up in the comfortable robe, requesting room benefit (gave wonderfully and finish silver cloches) and getting a charge out of a touch of "personal time" with my beau (and an impeccably some tea!). Awakening the following day was downright delightful as we appreciated an immaculately displayed breakfast in bed which was quite recently the ideal touch of wantonness to end our remain.
