Meadowood Napa Valley
I was lucky enough to recently visit Napa Valley for a trip with colleagues. For my first two nights I stayed at Meadowood Napa Valley, which is situated among 250 beautiful acres. Nestled among the hillsides, Meadowood is a private retreat for visitors to the area.
During my time at Meadowood, I dined at Forum and took advantage of their fantastic in-room dining options. The Restaurant at Meadowood is currently closed, with plans to reopen with the rest of the property in 4 - 5 years.
the Cadogan, a Belmond Hotel
After two nights in the English countryside, I made my way into London. I was able to spend one night at the Cadogan, a Belmond Hotel, centrally located in Chelsea and close to incredible shopping in Knightsbridge.
From the moment I stepped foot inside the Cadogan I felt like I was in my home away from home. The lobby is a cozy environment with a roaring fireplace to warm guests on arrival. The Cadogan reopened in 2019 after an extensive restoration of the heritage building, which dates back to 1887. Featuring two dining outlets, LaLee and an elegant tea lounge, the Cadogan is a bit of an escape from the hustle and bustle of central London.
