Room service: the best of luxury hotels, at home

Breakfast in bed

Room service - especially breakfast - is one of the great joys of a hotel stay and now the Berkeley Hotel in Knightsbridge plans to recreate it with its "breakfast in bed" doorstep deliveries within an eight-mile radius of London. Wake up to freshly baked pastries, juiced-up healthy options or brunch-minded lie-ins, including Scottish smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels, and granola with Greek yoghurt. For celebrations, there's also cake and champagne, delivered in some postcodes by branded Berkeley bicycles.

Arts and crafts

Kit Kemp's hotels - including London's Ham Yard Hotel and Covent Garden Hotel, and the Whitby and Crosby Street in New York - all feature her particular modern style, a brilliant juxtaposition of pattern and colour, folk art and crafts. Recently, more of Kemp's designs have become available to buy, including furniture, crockery and especially textiles, from luxurious headboards to throws and cushions. The latter include a collaboration with the prison charity Fine Cell Work.
