Not Worth the Effort

Got a gift certificate for this place and was excited to visit London. Beatiful building on the outside. Common Areas delightful. Service - lackluster, staff not aware of certificate stipulations. Room was quite bare and boring compared. Broken furniture, and sneaky with their charges of EVERYTHING.

A Grand hotel

We toured the Idlewyld Inn during the Open Houses weekend in London. It was a great tour - we saw common areas and got to walk through two of the rooms.

The hotel is in the middle of a residential area, a five minute drive from downtown. It is quiet and near the South Thames River.

If you look closely, you can see VT'er LoriPori.

Unique Quality: The hotel is quite unusual compared to most as it started life as a private home for one of London's big shots in the late 1800's.

It has been restored as a 23 room hotel with dining rooms and spa facilities. The furnishings in the common area and the rooms we toured seem to be from the era of the house. There is a special aura that you feel walking in the front door.

More about Idlewyld Inn

DOORS OPEN LONDON - IDLEWYLD INN

by LoriPori

Also located on Grand Avenue, is the IDLEWYLD INN which was once one of London's premier private residences, reflecting the wealth of the prosperous Victorians who built it. Their elegant dining room harkens back to a time when Idlewyld Mansion was the centrepiece of London's nineteenth century social life.

MINI-MEET IN LONDON, ONTARIO

by LoriPori

September 21, 2008
When Fred (Redlats) mentioned to Hans and I that he and his lovely wife Sandy, were coming to visit their son in London, Ontario, wheels were set in motion for a little VT Meet there. Hans and I drove up from Windsor, which is about an hour and a half drive. Jane (CDNJane), Stephanie ( MissAntarctica2002) and Laura (Hayward68) drove down from Toronto. We all met at Crabby Joe's Restaurant on Wellington.
Hansi of course came bearing gifts of scarves for the ladies. So my main pic is all the lovely ladies wearing their Hansi creations. Gotta love it.

Since it was Doors Open London, we all visited a couple of wonderful Victoria houses on Grand Street in London. The first one was Idlewyld Inn and the second was The Waverley.
