Meanwhile I was checking out the safer tech brands, all the B&O TVs, the Brewista kettle where you can dictate the temperature, the Sjostrand coffee maker, the Dyson hair dryer. Everything would get used my me, even the latter. I sat at an elegant desk on an elegant chair, gazed out the window, past the awning, at Hyde Park, and decided this was not just the best hotel, but the best place in London. Yes, that includes the Devonshire, folks.
