Often too tired at night for a big meal in a restaurant, we used Private Dining (room service) at the Cape Grace Hotel which is both reasonably priced (for those with British and/or US currency) and superb.
How often have you ever heard that?
The menu is vast, service prompt, and the presentation of the food is beautiful. The Private Dining trays have a full service of silverware ( 9 items of forks, knives and spoons per person for dinner )and fresh flowers. My husband really enjoyed the smoked salmon. Breakfasts were wonderful. They also had several 'American' dishes for those homesick for a hamburger, etc. Hot food was served hot, cold food-cold. Ice cream was perfect. (yes I am doing an ice cream tour of the world). Recall that my standard room had a large table with two comfortable chairs. The Private Dining waiters not only came in with the trays, but set the table and arranged the plates, silverware, glasses and flowers on the table. Not just a drop and run as in so many other hotels in the world.
Also, the mini bar had several choices of US brand candies, sodas, fine wine, very good beer and Kodak film! (at the same price as the shopping center nearby). To us the mini bar was a bargain. We used it a lot.
To put icing on the cake, room service trays vanished quickly from the hallways. This is a major pet peeve of mine. I hate to walk down a hotel hallway past used room service trays!
Breakfast service was prompt and the food served hot or chilled as appropriate. Eggs prepared as you like either in the British or American fashion. Low fat and low cal items with mounds of fresh fruit too tasty to describe.
This is better room service than the Mayflower Renaissance Hotel in Washington, D.C. Yes I said that! The Mayflower has long been my number one on that quality list.
I put the Cape Grace Hotel at the top of my favorite hotels list, but a very close second is the Alphonse XIII in Seville Spain.
