Rocco Forte's Brown's Hotel Launches Exclusive 'Ian Fleming Centenary' Package
To celebrate the 100-year anniversary of Ian Fleming’s birth and the launch of the Imperial War Museum London’s new exhibition, “For Your Eyes Only: Ian Fleming and James Bond”, Rocco Forte’s Brown’s Hotel is offering a special package, The Ian Fleming Centenary stay.
There’s nowhere more appropriate than Brown’s Hotel in which to pay homage to one of literature’s great characters; John Gardner liked the hotel so much he included it in his Bond novel ‘Icebreaker’ and the sexy and stylish Donovan Bar offers a wide range of decadent Bond cocktails. Things have certainly been shaken, and perhaps a little stirred, since the recent £24 million renovation of Brown’s Hotel; its re-launch was a decidedly glamorous affair with even famed Bond actor Roger Moore in attendance. Now guests can sample the Bond lifestyle for themselves with this stylish weekend get-away…
Highlights of the Ian Fleming Centenary package include:
• Overnight accommodation in a luxurious room or suite
• Full English breakfast (which is reputed to be Bond’s favourite meal of the day)
• Two tickets to “For Your Eyes Only: Ian Fleming and James Bond”; the new exhibition at the Imperial War Museum London*
• Two Bond cocktails in The Donovan Bar
• A hard-back copy of Sebastian Faulks new James Bond Novel - 'Devil May Care'
• Guests can also make use of The Spa at Brown’s which offers a wide range of treatments, including a large selection of ‘Male Grooming’ packages
The Ian Fleming Centenary package starts from £315 per night, excluding VAT and is available for Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, from 18 April to 28 December 2008, subject to availability.
