[edit] Photo request
Someone has to have a photo of a more distinguished or attractive hotel. Choalbaton 15:26, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
I guess hotels arent built to look good. Thundernlightning 14:28, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] List of five star hotels
I have just reverted the deletion of the list of five star hotels because (a) the deletion was unexplained, (b) it was anonymous, and (c) the IPaddress had a history of dubious linkspam type edits that others had reverted.
However I'm far from convinced that this list really belongs in WP. What is so special about 5 star hotels that merits their unconditional inclusion, as opposed to 4-star or even 1-star hotels that don't. What do other editors think? -- Chris j wood 13:09, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- What other objective cut off is there? Wikipedia can offer this sort of information in a non-commerical form, whereas if you try to get it from google, you'll get six zillion agencies, none of which will give you a coherent summary list. Chicheley 05:47, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
I do not have a history of dubious link spam. Please explain? as you can see my list dates back to 2003: http://web.archive.org/web/20030923195508/http://www.milesfaster.co.uk/luxury-london-hotels.htm
and pre-dates the time it was ripped for use on this page. It also contains errors which i have since corrected but which identifies it as my own work. It is wiki policy to mention all sources. I have tried to list my page as source but it keeps being removed as spam. Therefore do not use my work unless you credit it. You also said the removal was unexplained even though i did explain this in the history of edits.
[edit] tower hotel
- "The Guoman Tower Hotel (formerly Thistle) near Tower Bridge is one of the largest hotels in London with over 800 rooms, and is widely regarded as one of the ugliest and most insensitively located brutalist buildings in the city.
" where is this from? I have never regarded it as one of the worst looking hotels in London. It actually looks grand when viewed from the River. Does anyone else agree that the reference to it being one of the ugliest hotels is unwarranted and should be removed? Thundernlightning 15:13, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] references
Her guys, there's not many references in this topic. Wouldn't the article be better for more citations? Thundernlightning 18:10, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Five star list
The Mayfair Intercontinetal doesn't exist anymore - I think it is now the Radisson Edwardian The London Intercontinental on Park Lane is a five star hotel and isn't on the list
your right. The source for the original list on milesfaster shows that too. I will update this list when i get a bit of time Thundernlightning 08:52, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
