  • Submitted: 15th April 2016

Friday reads  – books set in a hotel
There are SO many good books out there but on a Friday you really feel like a literary holiday to read them all this weekend, maybe a hotel stay if you’re lucky? then books set in a hotel might be nice to take with you in your suitcase. These are fictional sadly but very real in your imagination!

    Hotel-books

 

The Moonlight hotel
Here are a few to book into right now:

The Moonlight hotel

Windermere

Book your hotel stay here
Imagine sitting beside Lake Windermere on a moonlit night with a lovely hotel behind you and a glass of wine in your hands? It exudes vintage glamour don’t you know and it’s the place that is most dear to Lauren’s heart so when she goes back to try and keep it from being renovated, it’s important for her that it doesn’t lose its charm. She wants to hold on to her memories and this is the place to do it. Hopefully it will be as special to you as it is to her

 

Coram hotel and Emily castles

Coram Hotel

London

Book your book fair event here
Emily Castles is a bit of a sleuth and is attending a romance writers conference in the fictional Coram hotel in London. When there she comes across crime and murder but more than that it’s a world full of bloggers and book related banter and so this is a  great literary getaway in more ways than one

 

 

The Lie cally taylorEkantra Yatra

Nepal

Book your mountain retreat here

You might fancy a spa retreat on the top of a mountain for a bit of piece and literary TLC this weekend? Well just as well the one depicted in CL Taylor’s The Lie IS fictional for you’ll not want to go here for real. It’s where bad things happen and paradise at the top of a very tall and craggy cliff is no longer paradise when you want to leave in a hurry. Escape even. This is a cracking adventure though – no luggage needed for this trip as you’ll have to leave everything behind when you escape.

 

L'auberge

L’auberge

France

Book your stay in a French hostel here

With the stress of the last hotel holiday, you might want a bit of a rest in a Frrnch village near the mountains? Well, head down to the south of France for some Fogas fun and frolics with Julia Stagg and the range of characters she’s populated her village with. The food is fantastic  – particularly the cassoulet and although the auberge might need a lick of paint, it’s typically French, relaxing, the centre of the community and a place to hide in when the nosy neighbours get too much
Enjoy and happy holidaying!
