A visit to the antiques market at Kempton Park Racecourse in London always calls for an early start, so I decided to head up the day before. A stay at the nearby Mitre Hotel Hampton Court - which I’d seen a few times on Instagram - looked a good bet.

After flying business class on the Air India Boeing 747 that was in service between Kolkata and Delhi at the time, I decided to make a quick stop in Delhi. I stayed at Vivanta for a night and here is my review of the experience at the property.

Before heading to the famous Oberoi Grand in Kolkata, I decided to stay at the ITC Royal Bengal - an ultra-modern, newly-built property which would offer a completely different experience.

My first stay at the Oberoi Grand in Kolkata, a landmark hotel in the city and famous among tourists for its rich history and culture.

I spent a night at the Novotel London Heathrow Airport T1,2&3, where AvGeeks can watch the traffic at Britain’s busiest airport from the hotel's viewing deck.
