Wow! What an amazing afternoon tea from @cherishfi Wow! What an amazing afternoon tea from @cherishfinden and so lovely to meet the lady herself. If they give Michelin stars for afternoon tea, then this should definitely get one. It was exquisite from start to finish with well balanced Asian flavours and full of surprises. It was also so stunningly beautiful you didn’t want to eat it. Even the tea was served with an almost reverence and attention to detail. If you love Asian food, this is a must do in London. #finedining #luxuryhotel #afternoontea #londoncalling #asianflavours #greatbritishbakeoff
Had an amazing time at Hilton Geneva, @hiltongenev Had an amazing time at Hilton Geneva, @hiltongeneva I particularly loved their terrace to enjoy dinner on a warm evening! The swimming pool area in a huge atrium was also a highlight with its jacuzzi and loungers. Apparently it’s the largest in Geneva! You can read my full review on the blog now and find out how to get 2 nights free at the hotel. Link in bio. #ad #luxuryhotel #visitgeneva #luxurytravel #hilton #switzerland
What an amazing time I had on the Tuk Tuk wine tou What an amazing time I had on the Tuk Tuk wine tour near Geneva with @taxibike. The wine making region is only about 20 minutes from @hiltongeneva where I was staying. …. You can get a discount off the tour with the #genevapass @genevatourism along with many other tours and attractions. It’s being given out free by most Geneva hotels this month. …. We visited @domaine_les_perrieres which is in a beautiful setting and has such lovely people there to guide you through their plethora of wines. From their take on classic grapes such as Sauvignon Blanc to more unique varieties like Gamaret from Switzerland there’s something for everyone. #geneva #vineyards #winetasting #genevawineries #luxurytravel #switzerland #ad
I was very impressed with the food @hiltongeneva. I was very impressed with the food @hiltongeneva. Let's be honest, a lot of food in hotels isn't great. However there were some real highlights here. The beautiful looking Geneva Discovery bowl was a real smorgasbord of flavours with the carrot and chickpea hummus, nutty bread and satay dressing the stand outs. Then for something completely different a classic steak tartare perfectly executed. But actually the star of the dish was the chips. I'm not really a chip fan but these were some of the best I've had. Perfectly cut, crisp and light on the outside but still moist and fluffy inside. Finally the croissants were far better than many a 5* hotel I've stayed in! #tasteofhilton #hiltongenevadiscovery #hiltongeneva #ad #instafood #luxurytravel
Fun day exploring Geneva from the @hiltongeneva I Fun day exploring Geneva from the @hiltongeneva It’s an easy ride into the city. You get a free transport card with your stay and there’s a direct bus from near the hotel. Or if you’re in a hurry there is Uber too. It’s 15-25 minutes into the city. Geneva is a beautiful city with plenty to see such as the Patek Philipe watch museum, the flower clock, St Peter’s Cathedral where you can climb to the top. There’s even a beach! Or of course you can just enjoy the beautiful lake with a glass of local wine at one of the many outdoor cafes. Until the end of the month you get a Geneva Pass with most hotel stays which gives you free and discounted entrance to museums and attractions. @genevatourism #visitgeneva #genevapass #lakegeneva #luxurytravel #switzerland #livetotravel
