East Sussex, UK: Hastings House, A Room In A Cosy Refine Bed & Breakfast In Hastings

What a great surprise! Here is a stylish Bed and Breakfast of eight rooms, run by a couple of Australians, much more better than some 4 star hotels!  A personalized outstanding hospitality. Upon check-in, Loy Seng, the owner welcomes you by offering you a drink of what you want. Here the hosts are detail oriented. And the new equipment is very well maintained. On the top floor, I’m discovering my room. The setting worthy of a good design hotel! An iPod station, the original bedside lamp, but mostly the large minimalist bathroom! I love it! Gray tiles, maxi bathtub, design faucets, extra clean toilet, mirror sets, beautiful finishes and bright light (pictures 2 & 3). Less is more! Seng confirms me they have used a decorator. Not to mention the perfect bedding and the excellent breakfast, cooked by Elizabeth, his wife. The Hastings House is a bit eccentric to the tourist area of Hastings : 20 minutes of an invigorating walk along the seafront to get there. The Beb & Breakfast is also 10 minutes from St Leonards: stop at the Post Office Tea Rooms, for an English tea & scones break.

Hyatt Regency Kyoto: A Gem

Hyatt Regency Kyoto-Japan-2

A super charming design hotel

with an efficient staff! When I arrived in the smart entrance hall, I’ve instantaneously found the place welcoming, familiar and even intimate (picture above).

Very Japanese too : you really feel being in Kyoto and nowhere else. Same feeling in the comfortable rooms

Hyatt Regency Kyoto-Japan-5Hyatt Regency Kyoto-4-The Grill

Breakfast at The Grill restaurant

in front of a Japanese garden, I’ve really enjoyed meeting again contemporary art and fashion people met in Tokyo few days before (picture above). People easily talk to each other, in a cool atmosphere.

at Riraku spa (pictures 4 & 5) : amazingly relaxing! A must do! Then late at night, after a very busy day, going back to the hotel is an absolut delight. Sounds like being at home.

Hyatt Regency Kyoto: A Zen Room

In the refine and intimate Hyatt Regency Kyoto,

you feel like in a boutique hotel, with high end service. I have a big crush on this elegant small nest in Kyoto. 

Kimonos fabrics above the bed, natural white oak on walls and for furniture, windows with a view to the bamboo garden.

The room is not big, but you feel like in a zen cocoon

that you don’t easily leave! And where you get back with happiness.

The granite bathroom (behind the glass door, photo 5), including a shower with a wood stool and a large bath, is a great pleasure. Comfortable, different!!! Suki desu.
