Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centres

Maggie’s is a Scottish charity founded in 1996 to help cancer patients and their families cope with the challenges and problems thrown up by living with the disease. Starting from just a single drop-in Centre in the grounds of Edinburgh General Hospital, Maggie’s has gone on to open four more Centres in Scotland – in Glasgow, Dundee, Inverness and Kirkcaldy. Outside Scotland, there is a new Centre in London, opened in April 2008, and advanced plans for a number of others which will be built between now and 2012.

Hotel du Vin

Think quintessential British style. Elegant and unpretentious. Combine this with great spirit, wit, an unquestionable devotion to wine, and you have captured the essence of Hotel du Vin.

Picture fourteen sensitively converted spaces, like a Georgian townhouse, a brewery, or a hospital, eclectically furnished in a timeless manner. Imagine a trademark bistro, serving simple classics, an outstanding cellar, Egyptian linen and monsoon showers for your room, a glorious Laroche tasting room for the wine-lover, a cigar shack in its gardens, and inspiring original art in its halls.

How very du Vin.

Malmaison Group

Eats. Drinks. Sleeps. 

How we do them is where it all gets exciting.  At the heart of it all is good people. Genuine bonafide 100% stars whose mission is simply to bring you the best stay possible. Whether that be converting you from a white to a red man, looking after your Scottie or waxing lyrically about your fluffy mash.

Passion goes a long way. All the way from the converted Episcopal church that is our hotel in Glasgow to fabulously remodelled prison in Oxford and beyond. With twelve daringly different hotels in the UK, and more in the pipeline catering for the business of pleasure and the pleasure of business, it looks like passion is well and truly here to stay.

Three little words. That’s Mal life.

While Napoleon was away, Josephine was at play.

Chateau de Malmaison was the surprise purchase she made for her all conquering lover to celebrate his campaign victory in Egypt. On return the diminutive despot was enraged to find she’d spent his recently acquired fortune on its spectacular makeover. Malmaison hotels, bars and brasseries carry on where Josephine left off.

Whether your campaign is a city break, weekend break or one night retreat, you’ll love what we’ve done with her place.

Tonight Josephine, this one’s for you.
