London Weekend Break for £150 at The Athenaeum

Here's a deal that may entice you to hop over the big pond for a weekend in London. The award-winning Athenaeum Hotel-- the family-owned gem renowned for its high service standards-- is running a "Weekend Break" offer for £150 in a standard bedroom. (An executive room is priced from £185.) Here in Mayfair, you're just a hop, skip and a jump away from museums, chic shops, and the West End Theatres. Guess who lives across the road? That's right-- the Queen. The Athenaeum overlooks the Royal Parks and Buckingham Palace! If you can drag yourself away from your luxurious room, you'll find the city at your doorstep, and the hotel will even loan you a bike to whiz around town. Return to the hotel to gossip over Afternoon Tea, nibbling on dainty fairy cakes, finger sandwiches and rose-scented meringues. The honey served is courtesy of the bees in Regent's Park.
