The Bobster stays at The Egerton House Hotel, London



Well, what a splendid weekend  I had staying at The Egerton House Hotel, London. This was the weekend of the Royal Wedding of Princess Eugenie to Jack Brooksbank and I had a right old royal time myself.
The Egerton House Hotel in the heart of Knightsbridge, so perfect for shopping and taking in the local area and cafes. We spent the weekend walking in Hyde Park and around Knightsbridge, browsing the shops in Walton Street and Beauchamp Place. The weather was warmer then the usual October day but there were a few gusts of wind, one of which actually blew napkins off our table while at the outdoor terrace of the Laduree café.

As we live in London, we took the underground to the hotel. This was a first for me. I've travelled a lot by bus but the underground took a little bit of getting used to, with the loud screeching of the brakes as it navigated the tunnels; the escalators at the stations were a first for me too. The human was very proud of me for coping with it all. Even with those humans who STILL pushed by on the escalator, even though I was straddling two steps! Humans!!!
.

Our weekend stay here was a birthday gift for the human. It caters very well for humans with spa treatments etc, which you can even have in the room,  but this place is actually also a dog heaven. Where do I start? Perhaps with the dog menu? Yes, it's always good to start with food (woof!) Well, get a load of this. I had my choice of the following, and boy did I woof it down.

If I was going to get the most out of this weekend, mealtimes would need some careful consideration. So I considered...
and considered, and considered.

The Lounge is comfy, with lots of lovely artwork, and when I wasn't contemplating the menu, some of these caught my eye.








In particular I liked this illustration of a dog (woof!) by Ludwig Bemelmans, which had once featured on the cover of The New Yorker magazine. The Human absolutely LOVED this illustration. I think she thought it looked like someone but I'm way more handsome!
Others which caught the human's eye were by Raymond Allen Jackson, or Jak as he signed himself. Some of his work is for sale here
We all had dinner together here at night and then I went to me cosy bed. Along with the bed I was provided with a towel, blanket, bowls, a chew toy and homemade biscuits. The charge for my stay is £30. The hotel offers dog-sitting, dog walking and dogs be taken to the nearby groomer. Woof 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾




The next morning, after the sleep of kings (I did say I had a royal old time) we took a walk before breakfast, which was huge. I opted for the chicken, carrot and rice dish, which is really their supper menu but they made it for me anyway. Thanks Egerton!
The Human had this for breakfast.

Later that afternoon we were joined by the little humans for Afternoon Tea. I did not partake of the dog afternoon tea myself but this little guy lapped it up.





The little humans had the Teddy Bear Tea, which was lovely.



I highly recommend a visit here with your fur family, whether for Afternoon Tea or a hotel stay. Your Dog will love it and so will you.🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
Goodbye Egerton House Hotel. It has been pawsome!
