HOTEL RATING: 5 STAR
The Hotel Babylon in
London is a fictitious hotel which was the name of a book by Imogen Edwards-Jones
and also made into a BBC TV series which ran from January 2006. The filming never
actually used any hotels that exist in London but was made in a former distribution warehouse in Buckinghamshire. Production Designer Paul Cross
first visited a range of London hotels in the luxury and boutique market and
based the Hotel seen in the series on a collection of bits of around 4 different hotels.
