Delphina Luxury Hotels on Sardinia’s rugged north coast. We chose three hotels as they represent Delphina’s five-star hotels but also because, as our trip progressed, we saw how they linked together and were indeed like a family with Delphina’s 3 amigos: D’Orso, Erica and Marinedda. Delphina’s Sardinian Luxury Hotels The trio, like the Three Musketeers, enjoy companionship with friendship being a key ingredient of the Delphina brand and like some good gelato, a different flavour in each for you to savour. Capo D’Orso is the elder brother, Valle Dell’Erica the fun and friendly daughter, La Marinedda the hippie chick. You…

The Most Expensive Hotel Suite in London at The Langham oozes the class, elegance and service that Gentlemans Butler prides itself on. As the owner and Editor-In-Chief of Gentlemans Butler I am invited to many glamorous events and with interiors being the big buzz word at Gentlemans Butler for 2018 we thought it would be an opportune moment to share the time we were invited to dinner and then given the first look at their refurbished Sterling Suite at The Langham London. This is not however a hotel review though we have visited the Langham on several occasions very happily.…
Gentlemans Butler had the delight to experience test driving the Volvo XC90 D5 R-Design for a luxury tour of the West Country. I car I drove retails at £63,000 and we can now report on our findings. If you asked two people, one a car lover and the other a lover of what a car offers, what they look for in a car you will probably get a series of very emotive answers and the other a group of practical pointers, both of which are perfectly valid. From an early age I can remember various car gadgets I liked. The…

Living The American Dream – Icons of Minnesota As the European Winter starts to show glimmers of Spring I thought it was time to reveal certainly one of the top days I experienced last Autumn, if not for many years. I like beauty whether physical or geographical, banter, characters, passion, a beer, some good food and some good old fashioned rock n roll You might say a boy’s perfect day out, and I would say I could not agree more. As part of a series of features looking at Icons of America with an emphasis on the word experience, this…
Mount Athos, Greece a journey to the Holy Mountain Eagles Palace Hotel, Ouranoupolis, Halkidiki, Greece www.eaglespalace.gr Mount Athos – www.mountathosinfos.gr The last all male bastion in the world, so as such it seemed only right that Gentlemans Butler explored further. I recently returned to Greece for the 10th time. You will not be surprised to hear it is a country I adore due to its beauty, nature, culture, hospitality, wonderful fresh food and studying classical studies at school certainly gave me an added interest. I was particularly pleased as my visit was to Halkidiki, a place I had been wanting…
A Romantic walk through the streets of Chicago I have spent over 25 years working with film and television so imagery is something that plays a large part in my life. There is no country in the world where visual mediums have done more for to promote than in the US. In many ways if you are a lover of films and contemporary culture, you might feel you know many parts of the US, even without setting foot on American soil. I recently visited Chicago for the third time and wanted to spend a day gently meandering the streets, getting…
